Wonderful Tour! Highly Recommend!! - Fabulous all day tour with Green Vacations!! Our guide, Will, took us to the hanging bridges, where he spotted so many different species of wildlife! Next on to a hike to a vista point for the volcano, a delicious lunch back at Green Vacations, and finally, a trip to the waterfall! A few things to know if you book the all day tour…we wished we had our hiking boots for the volcano hike, and the 500 stair steps was a lot after the hike on these 65 yr old knees!!! We’re so glad we did it all, but would probably do only the hanging bridges if we returned!!

Great Tour - Jose "Chino" was a great guide. He is extremely passionate about Costa Rica and makes sure you enjoy the uniqueness of the wildlife and ecosystem. The two hikes were easy to moderate with plenty of stops to see the volcanoe, birds, snakes, and other animals/plants. The waterfall is beautiful and the 500 steps out aren't easy but doable with enough breaks. The authentic lunch was amazing. Definitely one of the best tours to get acclimated with the area and experience the highlights of La Fortuna.

Beautiful but exhausting! - If you have more time in La Fortuna DO NOT do all 3 in one day. If I had the time I would’ve done the waterfall on a separate day without a guide and spent more time floating in the water by the falls before the arduous hike back up those 500 steps! The guide was wonderful, the free lunch was very good at a nice restaurant. Professional pictures were shared with all. Please tip your guide, this was an 8.5 hour excursion and he was with us every step of the way offering information, guidance, water, bug spray, etc all while carrying heavy equipment.

Top notch tour with experienced guide! - This was a full day experience! Experiencing the hanging bridges was incredible! The waterfall was breathtaking, be prepared to walk down 500 steps to experience the water, and 500 steps back to the parking area. It's worth the hike down!! Arenal Volcano was a great hike. We were fortunate to see it on a clear day, which was rare. Wilber/Will was a great tour guide. He was very knowledgeable and made our experience fun! This tour checked our boxes on what to experience in La Fortuna!

Great day with Juan Carlos Exploring Nature. - Great tour. We had Juan Carlos as our tour guide. He spotted monkeys and one sloth, along with snakes, frogs, birds, and tarantula. The man loves nature and wildlife and it shows. Loved his knowledge on all 3 portions. He was a blast to spend the day with. Super fun! Waterfall was cold, but beautiful to swim in.

All day adventure - This was all day adventure that can’t be missed! You will definitely get a good days workout with over 15k steps. Our guide was able to locate many wildlife in the hanging bridges portion. The hike to the waterfall is no joke with 500 stairs but is so worth it for the view. Make sure to bring a rain jacket and bug spray.

A must-experience - Chino was our guide and he was so informative and wonderful. His love of his country and nature was evident. The hanging bridges were amazing...our fave part tbh. The waterfall is beautiful but way too crowded. I suppose going first thing in the morning would be ideal. The hike at the 1968 site was a bit grueling for us but we loved it just the same. Again, the amount of wildlife was outstanding...we saw everything from a sloth to snakes and every bird imaginable. And the private lunch was delicious and was a welcome respite after all we did. Highly recommended.
