Due to my stuffup, I had to reschedule my morning hike to an afternoon one and the operator was very forgiving.

As it turned out, I was the only one and that didn’t stop the trip from going on. Norlan was my guide and he was a hoot! Funny and very knowledgeable. He is a great character and we ended up talking about food and wine (he is very knowledgeable on the subject).

The hike is relatively easy (especially compared to the 500 steps to climb up if you ever do the stop at La Fortuna waterfall!).

Please bear in mind that the hike is through a cloud rainforest and it typically rains! It is relatively rare that you’ll be there and it is dry. I happened to be there on a dry, relatively cloudless day and the view of Volcan Arenal was amazing!

The hike takes you to the closest legal viewpoint to the volcano

If you are lucky, you may also see a sloth.

Thanks again to my guide Norlan!

Great trip that can also be done with small children. Sure, the children have to walk a lot, but it's worth it!
The guides Wessley and Norlang are very hard-working, helpful, entertaining and knowledgeable

Great views of the volcano and valley below. Saw some neat wildlife. Relaxing in the springs was great after a moderate hike

Just a perfect day!!!!
Amazing hike and incredible afternoon in the hot springs.
What made this day extraordinary was our guide Josef who was not only an amazing animal finder with good overall knowledge but an incredible human being

Guide was very personable and good info. Isaac was guide.
Walk was average too much time to stay at the top with only 1 view to see. Lunch was very disappointing. Swim was delightful when you got away from the local crowds. Need to add more info about the river so that proper footwear is brought for the river.
Overall was just OK. Too much time for the planned events.

Great activity rain or shine! We went on a rainy day. The tour was from 10:30am to 6:30pm. Hiking the volcano, hanging ponds and natural thermal waters to finish. Well dressed with a raincoat, there is no problem! We are still in the rainforests! Obviously, when there is rain, the volcano is not as visible because of the clouds, but what made the difference was our guide Wesler who gave us a great experience. He was able to answer all our questions about the place, about the flora, fauna, etc. with great dynamics. We still saw different species of animals despite the rain. I recommend this activity and lucky if you have Wesler as your guide for the tour!
Pure life!

I found their table in La Fortuna near my hostel and it was cheaper than the price on TripAdvisor. The staffs were professional and enthusiastic, they explained everything in Spanish and in English which re-assured me. Had a blast all throughout. They offer so many different tour packages at reasonable prices too.
