    This tour was amazing and so much fun. We got to see so many interesting cultural things along route to the Arenal volcanoes such as a banana transplantation with the people using machines to transport the bananas through the plantation. Zip lining through the volcano was so much fun and the views were incredible. Our tour guide Fransico was so much fun and was great - highly recommend him and this tour!

    100% worth every penny! Would recommend this experience to everyone. The views, food, and zip lining were all amazing and there were many extra stops along the way for sights and food. You'll see birds, iguanas and maybe even slotjs along the way in addition to the waterfalls and 9 ziplines!

    Good bang for your buck. Our guide was Juan. Got picked up around 7.20 am at our hotel near the airport, then went to coffee plantation and tasting, then stopped by at a waterfall, then stopped for breakfast and another waterfall view, stopped by to see some sloth, could see Arenal volcano most of the last 30 min drive before lunch. Ate lunch, then went zip lining, followed by rappelling, then went to hot springs. Then started riding back to hotel. Halfway to hotel, stopped by for dinner. It was a good trip.
