This is a hidden gem!! It is at the end of the road after all of the other adventure sky walks and canopy rides. It is great for families with smaller children, older people who can't zip through the trees, and even the handicapped. It is a little narrow gauge railroad that goes down the mountain. They sever hot drinks... More

This was a great little excursion for our young kids (ages 4 & 2). A cute little train going through a very cool rain forest and our guide was great. I think they only thing I would suggest is they have more transport available. We would have liked to stay for lunch as it looked yummy and we were definitely... More

Had a great time walking the trails. The cloud forest is surreal. There is a cute waterfall to see. The price for a guide is very steep for solo travelers, so if you insist on a guide try to get a group. Go early to see the monkeys and the birds (which I got to see without a guide), but... More

The only reason why you would do this is if you're so desperate for a good view -- which could be a hit or miss depending on the weather. We had a 2 yr old with us and still I dont recommend it. A good view of the volcano & lake can be had somewhere else. Hated it.

View of Arenal, on a good day, is tremendous. However for visitors to Costa Rica it is a very expensive trip.

It was cold and raining the day we went. I must have missed the memo as I was dresses in shorts and T-shirt. The train ride was very nice complete with naturalist. In the middle of the ride, there is a rest stop where a short trail can be walked to see things up close. There was complimentary coffee and... More
