- La Paz Waterfall - As the journey ventures into the heart of the rainforest, a brief stop is made at a spot where nature truly shines: the magnificent La Paz Falls. This waterfall cascades through lush vegetation, creating one of the most picturesque scenes along the route.
The local guide will point out the ideal angle to capture your first unforgettable photos of the trip — the kind of image that tells your story without the need for filters.
While enjoying the soothing sound of the waterfall, there is also an opportunity to taste fresh fruits from the region, generously offered by local farmers. A simple, delicious, and authentic experience that becomes an unforgettable memory.
- Catarata San Fernando - Later, a pause is taken on a terrace nestled in the mountain, a cozy spot where coffee steams in ceramic cups and the hummingbirds’ songs compete with the sound of San Fernando Falls.
Imagine a terrace hidden in the mountain, the distant sound of water cascading, and hummingbirds fluttering around… Here, the group stops to admire the San Fernando Falls, optionally taste a traditional dish, and be enveloped by the tranquility of this magical place.
This is not just any location: 15 years ago, an earthquake shook its foundations and left a lasting impact on its inhabitants. Since then, it has become a symbol of resilience and beauty, a must-visit to reconnect with the essentials.
From here, amidst traditional dishes, sips of local flavors, and breathtaking views, one can experience what locals call: the silence that speaks.
- Arenal Volcano - Upon reaching La Fortuna, the group heads to the best viewpoint of one of Costa Rica’s most impressive natural landmarks: the Arenal Volcano. With its perfect conical shape and standing 1,670 meters tall, this giant not only dominates the landscape but also the region’s history since its major eruption in 1968.
The journey continues along paths surrounded by vibrant forest, where nature has reclaimed its space among ancient lava flows. Occasionally, white monkeys, sloths, coatis, and tropical birds make surprise appearances, while the local guide — an expert storyteller — shares tales that weave together science, legend, and everyday life.
The highlight: a strategic viewpoint offering a full view of the volcano, perfect for capturing unforgettable photos and experiencing that moment where everything pauses before the serene power of nature.
- La Fortuna de San Carlos - After visiting the volcano, the group heads to a hidden gem not found in tourist guides, but one that holds a story as warm as its waters: a thermal river concealed in the forest, accessible only to those familiar with La Fortuna’s secrets.
Few know that this river was forever changed in 1968, following the Arenal Volcano’s eruption. Locals recount that, amidst the chaos and urgency to assist those affected, many crossed this river on foot… only to find the water was literally boiling. Since that day, the river has never been the same.
Today, the river is a natural sanctuary: pools of thermal water nestled among trees, gentle steam rising skyward, and the forest’s whispers.
There are no lockers, no queues, no tiles. Just nature, living history, and the magic of sharing this place with a local who grew up hearing the legend — and now shares it in person, as visitors dip their feet where it all began.
