Damas Island Mangrove Boat Adventure

As dusk settles over Monteverde, the daytime animals bed down and an entirely different, nocturnal world wakes up. On this private night walk through the Monteverde Wildlife Refuge, your certified naturalist guide uses high-powered flashlights and a night-range spotting scope to track down sloths, kinkajous, tree frogs, tarantulas, walking sticks and sleeping birds along quiet forest trails. Reserve admission is included, so there's nothing extra to arrange. Please note: Transport isn't included but can be arranged on request — just ask before your tour. The trail depends on what the reserve has open that day and can't be guaranteed, as reserve changes are beyond our control.

What are people saying about Costa Rica

Authentic Coffee and Chocolate Tour at North Fields

KRae13_C, Nov 2026

Bring chocolate and coffee to life

Did a 3pm tour with Esteban as our guide. We learned so much on this tour and the sampling/smelling really brought the experience to life. Seeing how the fruits themselves grow was so amazing and getting to experience different parts of the process really brought a new appreciation to coffee and chocolate for me. We also were visiting at the end by a pup named Max and he was so absolutely sweet! Our tour was almost 3 hrs, so definitely plan for that. It was dark as we wrapped up. We were able to get some beautiful shots with the sunset. We also saw some howler monkeys, but mostly heard them.

La Fortuna Waterfall, Arenal Volcano, Hot Springs Full Day Tour

Ursula_S, Nov 2026

Hot springs, volcano, hanging bridge tour with lunch

We had an amazing day exploring La Fortuna! 🌋From the hot springs and volcano views to learning about the rich history and culture of the Maleku people, this tour was such a beautiful experience. A special thank you to our tour guides, Rene, Chacha, and Vagas , for being knowledgeable, welcoming, patient, and making the entire experience enjoyable. We learned so much, laughed a lot, and made memories we’ll carry with us. Highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting La Fortuna! 🇨🇷❤️

Tortuga Island Full Day Tour from San José with Lunch

Jennifer_S, Nov 2026

Great way to enjoy sea life and relaxation

This was a great day on the water, with a little bit of adventure and a lot of relaxation. We started the morning with a stop at a breakfast spot that had a cool butterfly garden attached to it. We then made our way to the docks where we boarded a boat to make the trip over to the island. We made side quests along the way to look at animals, including crocodiles, turtles and dolphins. Captain Steve drove the boat around spider monkey island in hopes of spying a few, but we were not so lucky. We then made a stop for snorkeling. Those in our group who did not want to snorkel were put on a skiff to go directly to the island while the rest of us had a nice amount of time snorkeling. There were a lot of fish to be seen and the water was the perfect temperature. It is not the clearest water I have snorkeled in, but I was still able to see plenty of fish. Once we made it to the island itself, we were treated to fresh fruit and given free time to do what we wanted. The island offered several different activities, along with lounge chair rentals, but I stuck with hanging out in the water and sitting in the area that our group was allotted. As is mentioned in other reviews, they charge for everything on the island as far as activities, lounge chair and locker rentals and access to the bathrooms. But this was explained to us at the beginning of the trip. We were also given lunch, which was a nice meal of rice, beans, chicken and salad. Overall it was a great day of observing sea life and relaxing. Our guide, Roy, was wonderful, switching between Spanish and English to ensure everyone on the trip understood everything that was going on and had all of their questions answered. He was professional but also playful and did a great job balancing the two. If you are looking for a few hours of enjoying the water, this is a great way to do so.

A great day in Costa Rica!

Luis_A, Oct 2026

Amazing Zipline with excellent service

Best family experience ever, the ziplines were amazing and fun for our entire family. The customer service was amazing. Even after we made the mistake to not making it on time due to time adjustment. The company accommodated for us to come back the next day. We are so thankful for them to be able to work us in to an already busy schedule.

Arenal Volcano Canyoning and Waterfall Rappelling from La Fortuna

Eion_A, Oct 2026

Must do in La Fortuna

This was my first time canyoning and it was a great experience! This canyon trail featured cool jumps, multiple rappelling spots, ziplines, and awesome water plunges. Thank you to Chris for driving. Thank you also to JC, John, and Kendle for being excellent tour guides. I had a great time!

La Fortuna Waterfall, Hanging Bridges, Arenal Volcano Combo Tour

Shana_B, Oct 2026

Perfect to see it all with kids

A great mix of seeing a little bit of everything the area offers with a bit of knowledge of nature mixed in. My 4 year old was able to handle the hiking (mild carrying her through the canopy tour). Got to see the rainforest, where we saw snakes, monkeys, birds, and tarantulas. The waterfall the was beautiful. And the volcano was very educational. Lunch was good and offered a kid option as well

Jeffery_T, Oct 2026

Don’t Miss Out On This Adventure

We had such an amazing time! Everyone was so welcoming and made the whole experience that much better. A special shoutout to Daphne, Oliver, and all the other staff who helped us along the way. They were all so friendly, fun, and great at what they do. You can tell they genuinely care about making sure everyone has a good time. The lunch was also worth mentioning. Great food at the local hotel restaurant! We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would absolutely recommend it to anyone visiting Costa Rica. Thanks for such a great time! Pura Vida! 🇨🇷

La Fortuna: ATV Adventure Through Rainforest & Volcano Views

JLC, Sep 2026

Don't Leave Costa Rica Before Doing This Tour!

This was an incredibly fun adventure! Our guide was great and we were on 3 different terrains. One thing I would suggest is a bit more instructions on how you handle the ATV when you get to uneven areas. Using the brake at the wrong time, versus just letting up on the gas is an important detail. I did get banged once. But all was well. Would highly recommend this tour!

Canyoning Adventure Rappelling Waterfalls in Arenal Volcano

anahW4139KL, Sep 2026

Just super 🌞

Great experience! The five different waterfalls were truly one highlight after another. Safety was prioritized throughout, and we always felt very well taken care of. However, the experience is not for the faint of heart, and good physical fitness should also be present. But for all adventurers, this canyoning tour is really just the right thing!

Sunset Catamaran & Snorkeling Tour in Playa Flamingo

Valencians in Costa Rica

Highly recommended experience for both children and adults. If you have come this far, you cannot miss it!!! It is priceless to see and swim together with turtles, pufferfish, .... Fair price for food, drinks, music, and experience. Thanks to Captain Josué and his team, Jorge and Anderson, we felt very safe, super well taken care of, and spent a wonderful afternoon with a sunset included.
