La fortuna - It was an intense but the best way to pack the top things to do and we added the evening which with the termal water was what the body needed The only issue was that the food provided in Baldi ( thermal water ) was not good perhaps not include s meal and let you order from the regular menu with a voucher

Unforgettable Experience in La Fortuna! - This tour exceeded all expectations! From start to finish, it was a perfect blend of adventure, breathtaking scenery, and insightful learning. Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable, sharing fascinating details about Costa Rica’s rich biodiversity and ecosystems. Walking across the hanging bridges was surreal, being surrounded by lush rainforest and catching glimpses of incredible wildlife made it truly magical. We spotted so many amazing creatures along the way, making the experience feel like stepping into a nature documentary! The waterfall stop was a stunning highlight, offering a refreshing escape in one of the most picturesque spots imaginable. And let’s talk about lunch - WOW! The food was absolutely incredible, a true taste of Costa Rica that left us beyond satisfied. It was the perfect way to recharge before exploring the impressive Arenal Volcano. Seeing it up close was awe-inspiring, adding an unforgettable touch to an already amazing day. If you're looking for a tour that combines adventure, nature, and deep appreciation for Costa Rica’s beauty, this one is a must! Highly recommend.

We had an amazing time on... - We had an amazing time on this tour and can’t recommend it enough! Our guide, Harvin, was outstanding—so knowledgeable about the local wildlife and plant life. He made the entire experience both educational and fun. We started at the Volcano Arena, then made our way to the La Fortuna Waterfall. Both spots involved a bit of hiking, but Harvin was incredibly patient and supportive with both me and my wife throughout. After all that adventure, we enjoyed a delicious lunch at a nearby hotel—the food was so good, I’m seriously considering going back just for that meal! We ended the day at the beautiful hanging bridges, where Harvin even helped take some amazing photos of us—definitely memories we’ll cherish. This tour was worth every penny, and Harvin truly made it special. Don’t hesitate to book this one!

Perfect if Short on Time - Great tour hitting the can’t miss spots in La Fortuna. The highlight was finding an active sloth on our hike to Arenal Volcano. The guide was great making sure we took turns at the scope and helping take great photos.

Great Day-Great Guide - What a wonderful day, and our guide Diego was very sensitive to everyone’s needs. We saw all the top sites in La Fortuna in one day. It is a good bit of walking and at times steep, so be sure you have good shoes and good stamina. A guide is a must since they are trained to find the animals and have a scope. We would have missed so much without a guide. We did the hot springs also-it is worth trying, but not my favorite. The hikes were much better and very interesting!

Wonderful! - Fantastic excursion! We did the hanging bridges and waterfall tour. The day went very smoothly. There was some communication issues regarding our pick up spot as Viator sent messages regarding pick up at a different location, but we had arranged pick up at our hotel with the operator. This caused some anxiety, but our hotel staff helped with communication and all was well. Albert was a wonderful, very knowledgeable guide. The rainforest was beautiful. We are in our early 60's, and not in terrible shape, but also not the best. The path is an easy walk and the bridges are not difficult to cross. They bounce, but i never felt at risk. The waterfall was gorgeous. God's beauty moved me to tears. There are 465 steps down AND back up. So be ready for that. There are places to rest on the way though. To swim near the falls there are large rocks to navigate. (I am not to proud to crawl when necessary!) There is a calmer more accessible area to swim if you turn left from the stairs. (The fish don't bite.) If you do this, swim around the corner to get the most spectacular view of God's creation.

It was great! Your guide... - It was great! Your guide was very fun, nice, and professional. Lots of walking! There were pretty big stairs in the beginning of the volcano course and 500 stairs for the waterfall portion of the tour. I wore chacos for the whole day, was very comfortable and appropriate.

Amazing - It was amazing. The guide team was just amazing. The service and the quality of it was just wonderful. Very understanding, polite, funny, really accommodation and friendly. They went above and beyond checking on everyone in our group of 20 people making sure everyone was ok.
