Amazing full day experience. Starts off with the waterfall tour. You get to spend about an hour at the waterfall once you get there. Then you spend some time learning about the Maleku culture. Then you have a traditional Costa rican lunch (included in price) followed by a hike to see the Arenal volcano the the surrounding rainforests. Finally, finish off with an hour at the hot springs.

This was a great day, the guides were amazing, really knowledgeable and enthusiastic. It is a well planned day, and are able to do many of the mai attractions s within one day. Was a lovely friendly group, and a really nice way to spend the day, as a solo traveller.

This was an AMAZING EXPERIENCE. Andres, Chacha, an Uriel were amazing hosts and guides. Note you will have to cross a hanging bridge and also a small river (like waist height, I'm 5'3) to get to the waterfall. Also note this is the tropics and weather can change in a heart beat, safety is ofost important. I will do this again for sure

Private access to majestic La Fortuna Waterfall which is definitely a can't miss. Knowledgeable tour guides with a relaxed vibe to make the experience your own. Full Costa Rican lunch provided and helpful for a long day. Tour guides had an eagle eye to spot animals including protecting us from a venomous snake! Ended the day in a beautiful hot spring with a drink and good times. The hike was accessible and easy for any beginner hikers. The guides truly care about sharing their towns with guests, which is the essence of Pura Vida.

Perfect for solo travels, hits all the parts of La fortuna that you need to see (besides mystico park). Great way to squeeze it all in one day

It is so much fun! Movo Jose and Alro are such a great team. We enjoyed it so much! Just book this. You won’t regret it. Also Oct is a great time to go. Don’t let rain season fool you.

I had such an amazing experience with this Costa Rican tour! From the moment they picked us up right from our hotel, everything was smooth and well organized. The tour guides: Diego *el Tico Gringo*, Juan Carlos, and Chacha were absolutely fantastic. They spoke excellent English, which made the entire experience easy to follow and enjoyable. The highlight was definitely the volcano tour. Our guides explained the history, culture, and natural beauty of the area in such an engaging way that it brought the whole place to life. You could tell they truly love what they do, and their energy made the trip even more memorable. If you’re visiting Costa Rica, I can’t recommend this tour enough. Friendly, knowledgeable guides, seamless transportation, and an unforgettable experience.

Spent the day with our tour guide Carlos. He was knowledgeable and had a great eye spotting the different animals. He made it a fun experience for everyone and made sure we all felt comfortable. Highly recommend!

The price is well worth it, and cheaper than others! We had great views of the volcano, nice hikes to the waterfall, and a great time at the hot springs. Lunch was included and pretty good. You have enough time to see everything and not feel rushed. Santiago was a great guide and gave lots of information. He has a great energy that made it all fun! We were surprised not to run into any other tour groups, other than one at the waterfall, which was nice. There are some steep parts on the hike so consider that when going to the volcano in general (every waterfall/volcano tour will experience that)
