WHAT'S INCLUDED

WHAT TO EXPECT

1. Arenal Volcano
The Arenal Volcano National Park is an iconic place to visit! You will experience what is like to hike around the base of the volcano and encounter all the different landscapes while ascending. The guide will tell you all about the nature and rainforest that formed after the eruptions, the richness of the soil and all the life and home it carries for many species of flora and fauna. You will not ascend all the way to the top, it is not allowed, besides it's really strenuous and dangerous but you will get as close from the formed lava trails as possible and hear all the history of the eruptions, you will learn how the volcano works and how is important to our lives, of course always being in company of nature and with the most incredible views; the guide will point out to some interesting animals that you will see along the path that live in the volcano area.
2. La Fortuna Waterfall
You will visit La Fortuna Waterfall and will be able to swim in its fresh waters coming from the mountains and get that fresh air that you need so much, right in the middle of a canyon in the rainforest! . It starts with a 20 minute walk down 500 stairs where you will be immersed in nature, take your time, it is a paceful walk. Once there get on your swimming suit and swim in the natural pool, stand by the rocks and see the beautiful nature! Upstairs there are the main facilities with bathrooms and changing rooms and an observatory to take pictures from above or in case you don't want to go all the way down you can stay there and wait for the group to get back (this also apply to a person that has a mobility, back or knee problem). Look up and see how tall the fall is and the magic that feels like when you are one with nature!
3. Rain Forest Explorers
After the waterfall was reached and you have taken enough time to enjoy, relax and breath in a nice home cooked lunch awaits you. You will be visit a local family ranch at Los Rodriguez place and they will cook for you the most tasteful and traditional meal you will have during your stay in Costa Rica. Located in the surroundings of the river you will have refreshing views and sounds, some friendly animals may be spotted and you will be able to share some time with the family members, get some of our culture,our cooking and unique flavors. Enjoy a nice cup of coffee while relaxing after a plentiful lunch and get ready for the next part of the day, the Volcano!

Great discoveries with the family. The waterfall is magnificent, the restaurant for lunch is very good and off the beaten track and the hike to the foot of the volcano was also very good. Our guide, Christiano, was super friendly and knowledgeable about the wonders of this region.

Oscar and Johane were excellent. Lunch spectacular. The constant rain and dense fog ruined the views.-no fault of the tour operator!

Issac was a fascinating tour guide who shared so much knowledge and perspective about Costa Rica history, wildlife, culture, and the environment. It was by far the best tour we experienced in Costa Rica. The one negative was encountering quite a bit of rain and wind on the lava trails but Issac's humor helped turned that part of the tour into a fun adventure.

Our family did the Volcano Hike and La Fortuna Waterfall with Fabricio. We had the BEST day. Fabricio was an incredible tour guide and very knowledgeable about all of the local flora and fauna. The kids loved asking questions and getting to know more about the Costa Rican culture. We were super lucky to get to see monkeys and a sloth!! After the 2 excursions, we ended the day with an authentic Costa Rican lunch at a close by plantation. We were able to pick our protein and experience more of the local culture. Completely recommend booking with the Rainforest Explorers and you'll be lucky if you get Fabricio as your guide!!

The guide was amazing and very knowledgeable. I would highly recommend both him and the tour company. We had a great time swimming at the bottom of the biggest waterfall we’ve ever seen, and the volcano hike was a great history lesson and had beautiful views. Both hikes are at least moderate in difficulty. Be ready for lots of steps to the waterfall and lots of uphill walking and natural steps for the volcano views.

This was a great day with great views and an amazing lunch. Be ready to climb stairs both at waterfall and volcano, but it's so worth it. The guides were awesome!

The La Fortuna Waterfall is amazing as well as the Volcano Hike, and the lunch was absolutely divine, but what really made the experience amazing was our awesome tour guide Jason and driver Johann. Both went out of the way to give rich cultural history to La Fortuna and the many aspects to the the Arenal Area and the Falls but also to help us observe great wildlife and greenery, even going off the beaten path to showcase a sloth!
