Everything you will want to do in La Fortuna - This was a great tour! It gave us everything that we were looking to do in La Fortuna at a great price with some incredible guides. We started at La Fortuna Waterfall - we had actually been on our own the day before, but it was great going with a guide as they were able to point out a sloth, some monkeys, and a toucan on the way back and forth to the waterfall. It was also nice to swim and have someone to watch our things. After the Waterfall we drove to the Volcano hike - about 2 hours of hiking and just around 2 miles. Agustin was a great guide for this and saw interesting animals every few minutes, and had a telescope that let us see these clearly. A nice lunch was included. After this - we went with Abel to the Mystic Hanging Bridges, where he was also able to show us some great wildlife - monkeys, wild pigs, and many birds. This was another 2 hour hike and had some incredible views. After this, Abel took us to the hot springs. This was the perfect way to unwind after a long day of hiking. We were the only ones left, but Abel stayed for the entire duration to watch our things and find more wildlife around the hot spring area :) It was great to have all of the logistics handled - food and transportation. It would not have been possible to pack so much in one day without the excellent logistics. We would not have been able to see as much wildlife without our guides. Could not recommend more!

Great and fun experience - The guides on the first half of the tour were really good! They made a super nice and fun atmosphere. I didn't enjoy so much the guide Harold in the hanging bridges because our group was very disperse and lagging behind, I think he guide should have pushed us a little bit and tell us more about what we were seeing instead of just answering when we had questions.

Full combo Arenal tour + Rio Celeste the next day! - We did the full combo with the waterfall, volcano hike, hot stream and hanging bridges and it was lots of fun! The guides were really friendly and pointed out lots of wildlife and helped us take photos when we wanted. The lunch was good and had the option of fish, chicken, pork and vegetable. Thanks to our guides Niefrin (Macho man) and Narlan (with 3 rs)! The next day we did the Rio Celeste tour with Frandel who was extremely kind and informative. He made sure that we saw what we wanted and would always be on the lookout for cool things. The lunch was once again brilliant and the sights of the National park were beautiful!

Action packed amazing day - Wesler was an amazing guide for this tour. He was able to help us find so much wildlife and made the amazing scenery that much better. He was incredibly knowledgeable, fun and entertaining. All of these activities were a lot to pack into one day but it made for a very memorable day.

Not a bridge too far - Overall a great experience. There is really no need to go to the hot springs. It’s a come one, come all grab for space. But the waterfall, the hanging bridges were fabulous. The volcano hike and the hanging bridge portions were extremely informative and worth the trip alone. Great family activity but be prepared for some moderate physical exertion.
