Wonderful adventures in one day - This trip was amazing!! we drove an hour and a half, but it was more than worth it!!! the thermal hot springs were SO RELAXING, and the ziplining was a ton of fun and so BEAUTIFUL!!!!! The waterslide was also fun, but the others said they got beaten up a little bit.

Find Nicholas! - Did this tour via TAM travels on a work conference and it was great. They picked us up directly from our hotel and had about a 2 hours ride to this place. Our tour guide Nicholas was AMAZING! Very helpful and knowledgeable and funny. We did horseback riding to zip lining then a cultural tour where we sampled food/drinks. Followed by tasty lunch and the hot springs. Everything was in one place and everyone we encountered was pleasant and helpful. The pictures taken by staff were also great. We ended up purchasing them of course and pictures were airdropped right to our devices. Overall a great time and we did not even see the entire place! Would definitely recommend.

Such a fun, beautiful and easy day for family! - We had an absolute blast at Vandara Adventure Park! The zipline experience exceeded my expectations, and the thermal pools were dreamy. The only thing I would tell future visitors is that it best for children 5 years and older - and those interested in doing BOTH horses and ziplining. We originally thought each activity was separate... but they string together: ride horses to the top of the mountain, zipline down. If you or your child only wants to do one or the other, that would be somewhat complicated. I skipped the waterslide because it is concrete and looked more rough than fun. Based on everyone's reactions that did it... I made a good decision.

A fun excursion with lots to do at Vandara - We totally enjoyed ourselves visiting Vanadara, Costa Rica. Adrian oir tour guide was very knowledgeable amd patiently answered our never ending questions. The ziplining, cultural tour, and the hot Spring were absolutely breathtaking. And of course the horses added value to our experience. I don't particularly recommend the water slide though, as it seemed to lack high safety standards. One could easily opt out of that though. Overall A memorable experience and we highly recommend this trip to everyone.

Worth the trip!! - We really enjoyed our day here. Angelita at check in was very helpful and the photographer Daniel was so nice. The zip lines, water slide cultural tour,mineral springs and pools were great. The lunch was very good and again great staff there.We were just surprised that we needed to horseback ride to ziplines but very professional guides were there. It was a good day.

Great experience! - This could not have been a better experience. In all sincerity it thoroughly exceeded my expectations for a group-style tour. We had a group of 9 and it felt like a private tour for the majority of our day. The staff was exceptional and the experiences ranging from the cultural and the history of Costa Rica to the activities were all top notch and done very well. The horseback riding to the top was a lot of fun and the zip lines were fantastic. Our farm to table lunch was also amazing with a lot of the ingredients coming directly from the property. The waterside was also really fun. FYI- I would have liked to have water shoes for both the slide and the waterfall area. However, we were all barefoot for those activities, so it’s not essential. We would highly recommend trying this out! In all this was a great experience and an exceptional value too.

Incredible Experience! - Everything about this place is incredible! Horses were calm, zip lining was the best we’ve done, waterslide was adventurous, the cultural experience was very interesting, the lunch was delicious, and the hot springs were amazing! I would definitely do it all again!! The photographers, Daniel and Emanuel, got some great pictures of us. Tour guide Alejandro was wonderful, and bartenders were great! The staff made it all the more fun!! Highly recommend it!
