What To Expect
The Peñas Blancas River is fed by the pristine waters of several private cloud forest reserves in Arenal. It is surrounded by lush rainforest, natural volcanic hot springs, waterfalls, and forested canyons that measure upwards of 700 feet (213 m) in height. This river provides a scenic adventure perfect for wildlife viewing in La Fortuna. It's the easiest and most unique way to take in the area's spectacular scenery, learn about its natural history from your guide, and simply enjoy a serene day immersed in nature.
La Fortuna Waterfall
Next, we head to the La Fortuna Waterfall Reserve, where a majestic 210-foot waterfall awaits. Hike 1,640 feet downhill to reach the base of the falls and feel the invigorating spray. Take a refreshing dip in the natural pool formed by the La Fortuna River – a perfect reward for your trek. Your visit directly benefits the local community, as 100% of the entrance fee goes towards social projects like schools, nutritional centers, and infrastructure.

5.00We did the safari float and saw so many animals. Melvin and Eddy found so many sloths and monkeys, crocs, otters, and cayman. Loved the trip. The waterfall was beautiful and we had a snack at a local farm and lunch after the trip. Fantastic group.

5.00The tour guide, Oscar, was fantastic. He was knowledgeable and genuine. He made sure my pregnant spouse was comfortable at all times. We always felt safe with our driver, Eddie. We highly recommend Blue Pass for a fun, informational and authentic experience. The experiences themselves were quite enjoyable. The one thing to know is that the boat tour, waterfall, and lunch are all at 3 separate locations with a 10 minute drive in between. The lunch was buffet style with great beverages and freshly made coffee, Costa Rican style. We greatly enjoyed ourselves.
Outstanding!

5.00The knowledge of our guide (Andreas) and our driver (Victor). The wonderful pace of the day in the amazing quiet, beautiful natural setting. The "coffee break" and lunch were awesome - authentic, delicious, plentiful. The whole day was relaxing, educational and culturally rich. Highly recommended!
Good tour

5.00The float was pretty. The water was low but still worth it! The hike to and from the waterfall was more strenuous than we thought but it was worth it.
