Fun, worth it, just wish weather cooperated. - We had Miguel from 7 tours as our guide. Everything was organized. We texted him the location of our air bnb in La Fortuna and he picked us up right when he said he would. Arenal tour— bring a poncho! We did not and everyone else in our group did. We got soaked. They did not. Weather did not cooperate for us and you could not see the volcano at all. Not the tours fault though. Miguel gave lots of facts about everything. The hike was semi steep and rocky but it was neat, even without seeing the volcano. The waterfall was awesome! We swam at the bottom of it - cold water- but worth the experience. I would recommend water shoes or hiking sandals. 500 steps down to the waterfall was easy. 500 steps back up not so much. We are in decent shape and were winded. Again, worth it. Lunch was next. He took us to a restaurant in La Fortuna and we preordered at the start of our tour which meant we wanted with our casado plate, so it was pretty much ready for us. And delicious! Part three was místico hanging bridges. That was neat also, walking through a rainforest and trying to spot animals.

Full day in Arenal - Wonderful full day with our great guide, Byron. He was very knowledgeable, fun, enthusiastic. We saw the highlights of the Arenal area. Hanging bridges, La Fortuna waterfall, and the volcano walk. I’d highly recommend as a way to get all of the highlights in one day

Highly recommend this tour! - This was one of my favorite experiences in Costa Rica. It was such a good value in that we got to see the main highlights of Arenal, transportation was covered, and lunch/water were provided too. Miguel and Coco were amazing. They really went out of their ways to help us see animals during the hikes and even while we were driving. We saw so many different animals like howler monkeys, toucans, pigs, snakes, and birds. I highly recommend this tour. Wear some good shoes for the hikes!

We loved our guide Miguel... - We loved our guide Miguel and we made great friends on the tour! You truly cannot spot the wildlife without a guide. Our guide spotted a toucan and a sloth on the road and stopped to the side so we could get out and look. The parks were amazing and we were able to see everything in just a day!

Excellent Full Day Experience - Great way to get the most out of a single day. The hike in the morning provided some great views and our guide Miguel imparted some interesting history about the region. The waterfalls were a nice place to stop and get in the water before lunch. Finally the hanging bridges and nature walk were a beautiful way to end the day.

Great tour even on Rainy Day - We were thinking to change the date due to heavy rain but decided to stick with original plan. And it was good experience. With rain volcano visibility was low but wildlife visibility was great. Our tour guide Miguel was great. He was informative and considerate. Open to change the plan based on group decision. He found good wildlife for us to view and shared the information about them. Patientance with everyone's pace in the group. We had great time and our group members were amazing. Win win

Recommend - A very comprehensive tour of the Arenal region! My only comment is that I wish the tour guide would have let us go at our own pace since everyone came in with different goals. Tour guide was great!

He helped us sign into the waterfall area and then left as well it says there is several ways to walk around the volcano we did one and it was quick . The lunch was good Hanging bridges were awesome All in all just ok
