Lovely Arenal Lake Experience! - This tour was a highlight of our trip during our visit to La Fortuna! Adrian was a phenomenal, kind guide who went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable and had a good time. Kayaking in the lake was a relaxing yet adventurous experience that allowed us to view the volcano from a beautiful perspective. We made stops along the way and Adrian even treated us with fresh fruit from his backyard! He also gave us many insights to Costa Rica. We very much enjoyed kayaking Arenal lake and talking with Adrian. I would highly recommend this tour!

Sweetest Guide WE ever met - My husband and I went to costa rica for our honeymoon and had an absolute wonderful experience with Adrian. He was so kind and helpful. Very attentive to our needs and accommodated us for 2 days straight. He was so familiar of the country and gave wonderful suggestions for the rest of our trip. We would recommend him 100% for a wonderful time!

Great trip at lake arenal - We just booked at the evening one day before. Salomon contacted us right away and gave us every information we needed. Than great kayak trip in the morning with nice view of the volcano. Salomon was very nice and told us a lot about the lake, the animals and living in costa rica in general. We were also stopping by a river and swam with some little fish and had a little snack. Great trip, highly recommendable!

Wonderful Kayaking Experience - An incredible experience and wonderful day. We cannot thank Adrian enough, and he was able to provide transport since we did not have a car. Costa Rica was an amazing trip and as we reflect on it our day with Adrian was one of our favorites. Thank you!

Kayaking through Lake Arenal with Adrian - We had a great time kayaking around Arenal lake with Adrian. He was responsive and helpful with any inquiries that I had. Also, he was able to capture some great photos and videos of our adventure and shared it with us. You must book your tour with Adrian if you get the chance!

Kayaking in paradise 😎 - Had an amazing time kayaking around the lake. Our guide was awesome , he took great pictures of our kayaking trip. He took us to a cool spot where we could jump into the lake and take a swim in the mini rapids. He also had fruit for us to enjoy. At the end of our day he took us to the natural hot springs , it was an amazing end to a perfect day. I would highly recommend Adrian ,he was a perfect guide. He also provided transportation since we didn’t have a car. We loved our day and would highly recommend his company to anyone looking to kayak around the volcano. Thank you again😊

Once in a lifetime experience at Lake Arenal - This was easily the highlight of our trip to Arenal. Everything about the experience was magical, from the breathtaking view, to Adrian's thoughtfulness and knowledge, to the dip in the end - the best money we spent for what we experienced. Adrian is fantastic, we chatted like old friends. We were a little late, and Adrian accommodated us just fine, even bringing us fresh fruits and bars to snack halfway! It was my first time kayaking and Adrian is a great instructor. I may have picked up a new hobby! Thank you for a once in a lifetime experience Adrian - and for the many many wonderful photos that you took of us. We can't wait to be back and do it all over. Pura vida :)
