Mobile ticket
Our tour stands out because it delivers La Fortuna’s top four experiences in one perfectly organized day without the stress of planning, driving, or buying separate tickets. With 8:00 AM hotel pickup in La Fortuna and nearby areas, a friendly shared-group atmosphere, and transportation + all entrance fees + lunch included, you simply show up and enjoy. Unlike rushed combos, we give you meaningful time at every stop: about 2 hours at La Fortuna Waterfall (including 40 minutes to swim when conditions are safe), a moderate Arenal Volcano hike for about 2.5 hours followed by a 30-minute traditional Costa Rican lunch, about 2.5 hours on the Mistico Hanging Bridges to soak in canopy views and wildlife, and a relaxing finish with about 40 minutes in the warm natural waters of El Choyín on the Tabacón River. If you want the best of waterfall + volcano + rainforest + hot springs in one day with clear timing, smooth logistics, and unbeatable value—this is the experience to book.

5.00Sergio, our guide was hilarious but very responsible, he kept us on our feet, staying active, and excited for our next activities. Really good at spotting animals, he spotted 2 sloths.

5.00This was a great tour. It covered many things in a full day but in a way that wasn't rushed. Our guide Johnny was very good. He gave a lot of good information and pointed out many creatures with his lens. He made my day for spotting toucans which I was finally able to see as this was close to the end of my trip. He got close up pictures and video of them for me through his lens. I highly recommend this tour and our guide.
Lengthy day. Well...

3.00We were packed like sardines, 21 guests in a single large van/small bus, which by itself was fine, but the tour experience was fairly chaotic as these guests were shared between two guides. The company had two other buses with similar numbers and there was a lot of bumping into other groups that let to painful delays. It was a lot of “hurry up and wait” which meant we went fast through the cool things without the time to enjoy them, then sitting while the other groups made it to the vans. The sites were pretty great to be sure, but best experienced in smaller portions or smaller groups. Nice guides, nice staff, lunch not the best, and I don’t wish ill on the company but just wasn’t a super experience for us.
Friendly tour guides and...

5.00Friendly tour guides and a great way to get in all the best parts of Arenal! Guides were focused on spotting wildlife to help us with our bucket lists - monkeys, toucans, sloths, snakes, humming birds.
Rain forest delight.

5.00Beautiful rainforest scenery at all 3 locations. Knowledgeable guides make every effort to locate birds/animals. Doing all 3 is a bit of a challenge as put in over 17,500 steps, most of them up hill. But I am glad I did it. I’m 78 years old.

5.00The knowledge and humor Sergio and Andrea shared during the trip were exactly what we needed for such a full day with them. At no point did they show any irritation, even with a few more difficult guests. The waterfall swim felt incredibly refreshing, and we really enjoyed it—even though our time there was cut short due to a personal medical situation (completely unrelated to the experience). Sergio reacted quickly, arranged assistance, and ensured everything was resolved so we could carry on. Throughout the day, he continued to check in on us, which genuinely showed how much he cared. The volcano hike was challenging but manageable. Thanks to Sergio’s enthusiasm and sense of humor, the one-hour walk felt worthwhile. Lunch was included and absolutely delicious, offering a wide variety of choices to suit everyone. Afterward, we visited the hanging bridges, where we were once again impressed by the sheer scale of the surrounding trees and plant life. The day ended at the hot springs, which provided the perfect way to relax after so much walking.
