Lovely Family trip!
Family
The trip was great. Juan was an amazing tour guide- very knowledgeable on a lot of subject areas. Highlight of the trip was definitely the zip lining, so much fun. Was also my first time seeing a coffee plantation, so that was cool and the coffee was fantastic, and the waterfall was really a nice sight. Great value overall with full meals included in the price. We also went on a very clear day so we were able to get a good view of the Volcano, although for some reason I had thought we would be on it, but that’s probably dangerous anyway. Still an overall great trip and glad we got to go with Juan!

Amazing Arenal Views!
Couples
It was a truly beautiful day. Our tour guide, Harlem, was fun and had everyone in our group laughing. We stopped and had the chance to see sloths. When zip lining, we even saw a howler monkey. The hot springs were beautiful. I highly recommend going to the top deck and getting a drink with the beautiful volcano view.

Exceeded expectations
There was no reason why it wouldn’t have been 5/5. Juan was a great driver, very knowledgeable, food was great, zip lining was awesome and the clouds cleared in time to appreciate the majestic volcano.
