What are people saying about La Fortuna

Kathleen_H, May 2026

Waterfall, Volcano, Bridges

You need to be in shape for this. First stop, beautiful waterful- 500 steps down, and then back up. Rest and get your heartrate down- then off to the volcano hike. Sergio was wonderful balancing the pace and keeping the fast ones, slow ones, and in between ones moving as a group up to the spectacular views from the lava rocks. The clouds cleared briefly (seconds) but we got to see the summit. Then off the hanging bridges- the park is not flat- the views are amazing but you need to earn them. Saw spider monkeys hopping in the canopy, a pair of toucans, a bright mottled yellow snake lying in wait for prey, and a cute little olingo hunting for food. Amazing, heart pumping experience.

La Fortuna: Mistico Park Hanging Bridges Guided Tour

Melissa_L, May 2026

Great experience!!

Definitely worth it to take the tour. Super cool to see all of the wildlife. Very knowledgeable guide who could spot things that tourists could never see. Thought the bridges would be the coolest part but it was all the wildlife you saw along the way!

Arenal Volcano ATV Guided Experience in La Fortuna

Casey_W, May 2026

Unforgettable Memories

We had an awesome experience with Outback ATV! Riding through the Arenal rainforest alongside the volcano was absolutely incredible and something we’ll never forget. Blake was fantastic to work with — very responsive with communication and made everything easy from start to finish. It was also my daughter’s 21st birthday, and the team went the extra mile to make it feel special, which meant a lot to us. Great people, amazing scenery, and an unforgettable adventure. We definitely recommend this place!

Night Walk Around Arenal Volcano

Holly_D, May 2026

Frogs, and snakes, and bugs oh my!

Wonderful and wild night time walking tour. This was such a cool experience. A must book of you are looking for some real time out in the wild of the rainforest spotting all kinds of animals. We saw spiders, snakes, frogs, bats, fireflies, and so much more. The guide was knowledgeable and you could tell he was enjoying it as much as we were. He had a great eye for spotting things and was happy to answer questions. I don't think you could get this type of experience anywhere else, besides getting hopelessly lost in the rainforest at night, there were dozens of things he spotted that the rest of us would have just walked right past. Show up with a sense of wonder, some strong nerves and be prepared to see the untamed Costa Rica rainforest by night!

Katharine_S, May 2026

Diego and Carlos were...

Diego and Carlos were fantastic, they took their time and made sure that we learned about the culture, nature, indigenous tribes, and local history throughout the tour. Thats in addition to swimming in a breathtaking waterfall, learning about the Arenal volcano, and relaxing in the hot springs. Was definitely a full day of entertainment and fun, zero rush and took time for extra stops for sloth and macaw sightings. Awesome!

Canyoning Adventure Rappelling Waterfalls in Arenal Volcano

Devin_C, May 2026

Highlight of our Trip

Our guides were excellent and made the day so enjoyable, Even used my phone to cature some excellent photos of me in mid rappel, and didn't expect any finnacial gain for doing it. Everything about the day felt safe. The Lunch provided at the end was almost worth the price of the ticket, such delicious home cooked authentic Costa Rican food. I would highly recommend the ABC canyoning company to anyone in the La Fotuna area. If you are thinking about it......Do it! you will not be disappointed.

Great fun in the jungle

Fun adventure! Repelling over and through water falls, zip lines, and some small cliff jumping. Prepare to get fully wet, and have a great time. They provide transportation from hotel, feed you a delicious lunch, and then a couple hours of adventure, I would totally come back with my teenagers, they would have loved it

What an exceptional experience! David was our guide and was so enthusiastic and informative! He has such passion for coffee, chocolate and his beautiful country! We loved everything about our day. The chocolate and coffee were delicious! Do not hesitate to book this tour!

La Fortuna ATV Adventure with Mud Mask and Arenal Volcano Views

Michael_H, Apr 2026

Nice ride to enjoy the sights.

The pathways take you through the forest, but because it has been traveled many times, they can be very bumpy but this adds to the fun. Because you follow your guide and other riders that may be inexperienced the pace is slower, so if you are looking to go fast this might not be what you are looking for. For us we were enjoying the sights and the slower pace allows you to take that in and enjoy.

7-Cable Zipline Adventure: Fly Over La Fortuna Waterfall

Timothy_B, Jan 2026

Review of 7 zip line tour

We did the 7 zip line tour and it was perfect. Not to much. Just the right amount of fun. There was a nice little hike through the jungle in the middle which we really enjoyed. The drive up to the zip line pads was really sweet. The zip line instructors you could tell, really loved their jobs. It was a great time and I would recommend the zip lines as a must if you like adventure and you find yourself headed to La Fortuna. The view of the waterfall is like nothing I’ve experienced elsewhere.
