We used this service for our first day in Arenal and the experience was truly incredible. Our guide, Erica, was wildly informative, patient and made the experience truly unique. I would highly recommend.

Amazing experience and incredible views! Erica and George were amazing and helped us truly appreciate the beauty of everything we saw. It is definitely a lot of walking but you can take it slow and Erica offered lots of opportunities for breaks. The views were incredible and we saw monkeys, sloths, vipers, birds, and lots of other creatures! Erica is an amazing picture taker and went above and beyond to provide an amazing experience!

This is an all day excursion and we were exhausted when it was over, but what an experience! Our driver was eagle eye Joel. Just when the tour started he saw some monkeys on some random trees. He also spotted sloths and tucanes! All from the drivers seat! Raul was our main guide and he was amazing and so knowledgeable. He spotted many creatures on our walk through the hanging bridges including 3 types of snakes and plenty of birds and reptiles. He took pictures of everything and everyone with our phones so we could keep the memories for ever. Super fun guys! Wish all our excursions were with them. The food was also very good a filling after the first two activities. Water was provided but I would suggest to bring an extra snack. This day was the highlight of our trip.Steve_P

What a great tour! Raul was very knowledgeable and we were able to see a lot of wildlife including a close encounter with a snake that he was able to take video of on my phone. His English was also very good and he has a great sense of humor making it even more fun. Joel, our driver, was also able to spot wildlife while driving and pulled over so we could see a monkey, a sloth, and a toucan. It was an exhausting day doing all three things in one day - the 500 steps at the waterfall is no joke and we were a little sore the next day. Highly recommend and would do it again!946dimitrim
