An extremely scenic boat ride plus an easy hike on an accessible trail. Apt for people of all ages and physical levels.

Lovely and short walk through the forest. Our guide was very knowledgeable about the area and plant life. We were lucky enough to see a Dutchman's Pipe!! The guide was so excited because he had never seen one before. Boat was a great way to see the Lake.

This tour was amazing! The walk through the forest was easy and reasonably short and the boat ride was spectacular! We got great views of the volcano and surrounding mountains. We also saw some cool wildlife. It was a great tour for us because we had small children and didn't want anything too intense or physically demanding.

We had a wonderful tour with Jacamar. We were picked up from our hotel and driven to the National Park (the road had a section which was really rocky and the driver was amazing), where we walked the peninsula trail. We were lucky to have two guides as David was new to the company and in training. He was great and think he'll be amazing for Jacamar in his new job. On the walk we saw Coati, a hawk and the highlight was seeing multiple spider monkeys really close in the trees above us. The views were also beautiful across Lake Arenal and out to the volcano. We were given some fresh pineapple and drinks, then boarded a boat for a tour on the lake. Unfortunately it rained so hard we couldn't stay out long - but you can't control the weather in the tropics. We had a wonderful afternoon - thank you.

If you want a cool and comfortable way to see the volcano and a lot of birds and other wildlife, I highly recommend this tour. Our naturalist was knowledgeable, everything ran on time, the van was clean, and the boat driver had an eagle eye for spotting wildlife. There’s A short, easy hike through a park to get to the boat. Then we puttered around the east side of the lake, and met the van at the boat launch.

Oscar was a very good guide and pointed out wonderful wildlife including spider monkeys and lots of beautiful birds. He also helped us photograph the birds through his telescope.
