"Celeste" in Spanish means celestial, paradisiacal and also the light blue color of the clear sky. These adjectives perfectly describe the area you will visit in this tour.
On the flanks of the Tenorio Volcano National Park, this 7 km hike takes you to the point where the river Mother Nature magically mixes the water of two crystalline streams, changing its color to the beautiful blue light we call Celeste. Continue to "the pots", the depressions in the clay-filled soil with supposed therapeutic properties and the Tenorio Volcano hot springs. The trail continues through the forest until you reach the dazzling waterfall of Rio Celeste.
During all this time, the surrounding jungle is full of life forms, smells and incredible sounds.

Jose drove us from the airport to Noah's Forest and back again; he was great! Very friendly, pointed out all sorts of things to us, and even pulled over for a bit when I got carsick. Juan Jose was our driver one of the days during our stay and really went above and beyond for us. He was super flexible and took us to an additional location that wasn't initially planned, and was so friendly the whole time! We had a great experience with both our drivers through Glass Frog.

We had a fantastic tour with Walter and Esteban. Walter is very knowledgeable about the volcano, waterfall, wildlife and local area. He pointed out snakes, birds, sloths and more at the Hanging Bridges. His English is excellent! Esteban was a careful and safe driver and his vehicle was very clean and comfortable. I would highly recommend them if you want a friendly and professional tour company. Our day with Walter and Esteban was the highlight of our time in Arenal/Fortuna.

The highlight of our trip to Costa Rica was the hike to the Arenal volcano. Our guide, Isaac González was fantastic. He was courteous and accommodating and extremely knowledgeable about the history, flora and fauna as well as being fun! A high recommendation for this trip!

We did the Arenal Volcano tour. Our guide Isaac was the best!!!! He asked us questions before the hike to make sure we had the best time possible.. Also he knew the entire history of the area which was really fascinating and made the tour even better.

Marco and Miguel were the best! If you want to be treated like Costa Rica 🇨🇷 royalty 👑, look no further. Miguel's comfy van and expert driving made us feel relaxed, and Marco's non-stop narration was more like sitting through a beloved professor's lecture than the usual rote tourguide speech. We saw sloths, howler monkeys 🐒, spider monkeys, white faced monkeys, snakes🐍 and other critters that the unguided could not have seen. Marco even knows every sound the forest fauna make. Bring your best hiking socks and boots and be ready to be amazed!

It’s hard to put in words how amazing this tour was. Isaac took a simple hike to volcano Arenal and turned it into an unforgettable journey, filled with local history and education on the biodiversity that Costa Rica offers, and ended with us resting at the base of the volcano on naturally formed lava formations. His knowledge of the history and natural ecosystem captivated our family and made this truly the best guided tour we have ever been on. We returned to our starting point to be welcomed with fresh cut fruit. I am not sure how we were so fortunate to have Isaac as our guide, but we are so thankful we did. Pura Vida at its finest for sure.

The tour my family went on was absolutely amazing! We hiked lava trails and up and down the mountain to get an amazing view of the Arenal Volcano. Our guide Issac was extremely knowledgeable and told amazing stories throughout the hike to keep us intrigued. He knew things about the different animals and plants we encountered as well as the history behind the land. (and it wasn’t boring history it was actually pretty cool). I definitely recommend this tour!
