Perfect full day tour - We had the pleasure of doing a full day tour with Frantine Augustine. We had a cold plunge in La Fortuna waterfall, did the volcano hike, as well as a the hanging bridges tour in Mistico park and a visit to the hot springs. Frantine was the best guide ever; doing everything he could to spot rare birds and animals, but also being funny and answering al our questions througout the day. One side note; they cancel all ATV tours in the national parks! These touristic rides simply scare off all wildlife and do not belong in such beautiful nature!!

Go ahead and book the tour, you won't regret it! - The tour was amazing! The tour guide Eric was full of knowledge and he spotted different plants and animals along the way. The hike was doable for everyone of all ages. I'm not a hiker at all but I was able to do it. We saw sloths, tucanes and interesting plants on the way to the Volcano. The Waterfall was refreshing and breathtaking. The lunch we had was the typical Costa Rican Casado which was filling and appropriate after a long hike. Lastly the hot springs was the perfect finishing touch to the trip. Overall I had a wonderful time due to the knowledge and experience of the staff. The tour was well-planned and the pace was perfect.

Charismatic tour guides - We did the waterfall, volcano hike and hot springs package. This was really great value for money with pick up and drop off from our elected accomodation. Not to mention we had a topical Costa Rican lunch included in our package which was so delicious and generous portions. The tour it’s self was great as we had charismatic tour guides Norrrland and Augusto making the journey fun. Great way to explore La Fortuna / Arenal.

Combo tour - The staff were great Augustine, Nei and Norland were very knowledgeable and fun to listen to. Pro tip wear some kind of water/hiking shoes like Keenes. The rocks are slippery and we were glad to have shoes that can get wet yet dry quickly for walking. Bring lots of cold water!!

Waterfall, hike, springs - What an awesome day. Super well organised. The guides have so much fun and energy. The waterfall is beautiful for swimming, there is a natural side pool for less able/non swimmers. The hike was not super challenging but you would struggle with the day if you are not used to hill walking. Viewpoint was great and we saw some birds, snakes and sloths along the way. The day ended with the roadside free hot springs. Perfect. Thank you. Pura Vida

Superb trip with knowledgeable guides - I couldn’t rate the organisation, communication, guides, food and value for money more highly. We did the Waterfall, volcano hike and hot springs with guides Augustine and Randle. From the first minute to the last they were full of energy, knowledgeable and funny without being over bearing!! Augustine was outstanding at spotting wildlife on the hike - anteater, toucan, sloth and more. The trip was well paced with everyone getting the chance to see the wildlife and ask questions. Brilliant day out for us and the kids. Highly recommend this company and trip to visitors.

Great tour. Augustine was an excellent guide. - This tour was excellent. A long day and the hiking is of moderate difficulty, but well worth it. Our primary guide, Augustine, was fantastic. He kept any downtime between adventures fun and informative. Would absolutely recommend.

Volcano, waterfall, sloth tour - We did several tours. Some of them can be done alone. For the "animal watching tours" and the volcano, however, it's worth having a guide, as you get additional information and can't spot the animals on your own. The money also goes to the park and to Costa Rica's excellent ecologically sustainable standards. If English isn't a problem, it's really good and I'd be happy to go again.
