Unforgettable Day in Arenal! - We had an incredible experience on the Arenal Highlights tour! Mario, our driver and guide, was absolutely fantastic—personal, funny, and engaging throughout the day. He kept us on schedule without ever making us feel rushed, giving us plenty of time to enjoy each stop. We traveled with three young kids, and while it’s definitely a lot of walking, it was 100% worth it. The views were stunning, and the wildlife was even better—we spotted two sloths, two different kinds of monkeys, and even a viper (from a safe distance!). This tour was a perfect mix of adventure, nature, and education. Highly recommend it for families looking to explore Costa Rica’s beauty in a fun and well-organized way. Thank you, Mario!

A great package deal! - We had a great time! Mario was our guide and was very knowledgeable and funny. The hanging bridges was our favorite. Having a pick up and drop off at our hotel was very convenient. The only note to add, be prepared for stairs

Amazing experience in La Fortuna and Arenal - I had an amazing experience with Mario tour guide and Hafte as a driver. We’ve had an amazing day and seen a lot of nice things, we were so lucky to see a sloth, monkeys, a viper, tarantula, birds… etc. Arenal was also amazing would do the tour again any time!!!

Amazing experience, smooth and easy logistics - Everything was smooth, including the communication prior, pickup location clear, all the drop offs and timing. It was great not having to worry about all the details with tickets, parking, etc. The tour itself was amazing! The views of the volcano, the waterfall, etc were unbelievable. And like so many others said, without a guide we would not have seen most of the animals that Mario spotted. I would totally do it again.

Convenient but expensive way to see these attractions. - All the attractions were worth visiting, but lots of people at the Hanging Bridges and Waterfall. Nice to walk across the bridges, but don’t expect much wildlife. Having a guide was a nice touch but not essential.
