La Fortuna Waterfall and Arenal Volcano - This tour was so much fun and had beautiful views! First we got to hike to the La fortuna waterfall and swim at the bottom, then we hiked to a viewpoint of the Arenal Volcano, had lunch, and went to relax in a natural hot spring. Would definitely recommend!

Lots of interesting details and info. - The trip was interesting. Very well organized. We got picked up from our hotel. It was poring the whole time, though (rainforest, right??). I'd suggest reserving at the last moment, if possible, checking the weather. We didn't see much, all was covered in water. The guide gave lots of information.

Tour was great, but a negative experience with Viator - As advertised, this tour requires a good level of fitness. Plus take into account that it's hot and humid, so the volcano hike in particular seemed more strenuous than I expected. First was the waterfall - 500 steps down and up. It was beautiful and the cold water felt good. Next was the volcano hike. Our group was fairly large (around 30 people), so it was helpful to have multiple guides to split into smaller groups. My guide was Augustin - simply excellent. He went above and beyond in my opinion. The view of Arenal at the top was fantastic. After Arenal, we went to the hot springs, which was also an excellent experience. The tour company was great. I'm rating it a 4 only because of an issue with Viator that they don't seem interested in helping me solve. I would recommend booking this tour directly with the tour company if possible.
