“In general the volcano hike was fun! However, on a second thought we would have made a self-guided hike. Our tour started one hour late and as a result we had to do the shorter path. Our guide was not so enthusiastic about the nature and the volcano. It is not the tour to spot animals.”

“Be cautious when booking this activity! They gave us incorrect meeting point, so we were not able to have this experience. The receptionist at the Arenal Lodge and Trails informed us that they couldn’t find our booking number. They gave us directions to El Castillo, however we weren’t not able to find this place. Very disappointed as we were looking forward to the monkey tour and picnic views.”
Review of Arenal horseback riding in La Fortuna, with volcano views, river options, guide details, riding tips, price, and safety advice.
“I could not recommend this tour enough. If you love horses or just want a fun ride this is the place. We had route options to choose from due to the weather clouding the view of the volcano, so our group took a trip to the river instead. Carlos and his crew took great care of all the riders and were so patient with the less experienced ones. Running with the horses through the jungle had to be the highlight of my whole trip to Costa Rica.”

Zipline, tube rapids, meet Maleku culture, and unwind in hot springs on this four-hour La Fortuna adventure.
“Amazing experience. We did the zip lining/ rappel and tubing down the rapids plus hot springs at the end. So much fun. We have done zip lining several times in the past and these lines seemed really fast. The tour guides on both experiences were amazing. The tubing in the rapids has been the highlight of our trip so far. My group was my family of six ages, 21, 23, 24, 43, 44 and my mom 67! The compassion that was shown to my mom on the rapids is un heard of. She flipped over (which most of our group did) and one of the tour guides said “(Mama) I’m…”

The viewpoint offers some great views of the Arenal volcano and Lake Arenal. The hot springs was a great treat after the hike. Very laid back and relaxing.”

He also went out of his way to ensure that we were able to observe a sloth he had located the previous day. Ramon provided great transportation services and the fruit at the end of the hike was much appreciated.”
