Sky-High Arenal: Mistico Hanging Bridges & Rainforest Mystique

We were picked up by our Guide Kevin of Canoa Aventura. Kevin was an amazing guide. He was knowledgeable and enthusiastic. He and his student Wesley were very helpful. The rain forest held many wonders and birds of so may varieties and one snake. The views from the hanging bridges were awe inspiring. We were very satisfied with the experience. Because I use a cane I had some concern about being able to complete the tour, however a helping hand was provided when needed . I cannot express my gratitude enough.

Mario is extremely experienced and willing to help. He spot so many animas and took great pictures for us. We learnt a ton about the environment from him. We had a great time and will try to come back again. Much appreciated!

Loved this tour and walk! We had a great guide! Bridges are so fun to cross ! Saw several animals as well

What a wonderful walk! Mario picked us up promptly and it was my husband/me, one man and one other woman. It rained a tiny bit before we started but thankfully had gorgeous weather for remainder of walk. Mario was extremely knowledgeable about the wildlife/plants/history of Costa Rica. He knew when to stop and bust out the fancy telescope. I will say this is definitely a moderate hike. We were all dripping in sweat! Lots of inclines/declines. My Apple Watch logged around 6,000 steps when it was all done. We saw a sloth, monkey, toucan, blue jean frog and other fun creatures. I highly recommend this tour!! Thanks Mario

I had high expectations and was looking forward to this tour the most. Mario blew away my expectations and made this an amazing experience for my family. He was everything you want in a guide and we saw so much more wildlife than I expected. One of the best guides I have had. I highly recommend 7 tours and the hanging bridges.

Enjoyed the experience of the hanging bridges! Mario took care in making sure we saw animal life in the rainforest. A wonderfully paced tour.

A great tour! Mario was really friendly and amenable. Lots of explanation and understanding of the local area. We saw lots of animals such as monkeys, leaf cutter ants, butterflies, tarantula hiding in its hole, peccary, anteater…. Fantastic!

Personally, I found the tour quite dull. If you've already walked on suspension bridges elsewhere, this felt like a waste of time. The guide was superficial, and everything seemed overly staged. Additionally, he spent more time talking about trees than animals—perhaps because spotting animals is actually quite difficult. We only saw a frog, a couple of birds, a pair of fighting monkeys, and a single sloth high up in the trees, making it hard to get a good view. We visited during the low season, yet there were still far too many people on the trails. I can't imagine how crowded it must be during peak season. Overall, it wasn't a very satisfying experience.

Monica was simply outstanding. She was so informative and gracious with her knowledge. Additionally, she went above and beyond and stopped on the side of the road when the tour was over to show us a sloth! We saw so much wildlife in the park too!! We even saw an anteater which is rare!!!

Mario was the best! The tour was fun and very informative. The bridges were awesome and felt safe, a little wobbly but safe! Definitely check it out!
