San Jose to Arenal Volcano National Park

Most tours show you Costa Rica. This one is designed to help you experience it. This premium tour is built around a simple idea: combining iconic destinations with places most travelers never find, all in one well-paced and carefully planned day. You will explore volcanoes, waterfalls and hidden spots while your local driver-guide handles the logistics and shares the kind of insight that turns a place into something meaningful, not just something you see. The experience is flexible and adapts to your pace. No rigid schedules. No unnecessary stops — only well-timed, unexpected ones along the way that feel natural, not forced. Along the route, you will notice the difference. Small details. Local moments. Places that are not on maps but somehow become part of the story. A smooth day designed to help you see more, feel more and enjoy Costa Rica in a way that stays with you long after it ends.

This is not just any excursion: it is a premium adventure, designed for those who value comfort and authentic experiences. More than a tour, it is an intimate trip through the natural wonders of Costa Rica.  Super-small groups and premium transport guarantee you comfort, flexibility and personalized attention throughout the tour. We observe lava pourings, stop at hidden viewpoints and explore the legacy of the imposing Arenal Volcano. We stop at local places: postcard waterfalls and hidden viewpoints, where you will try typical fruits and dishes (meals not included so you have freedom of choice). We enjoy everything from a hidden river of hot water to the thermal pools of a resort with excellent amenities. ️ Our guide not only knows the route, he lives it. Natural, attentive and close narrator, because in a world full of generic tours, this trip feels like with a local friend who wants to show you the best of his land.
