We really enjoyed our horseback riding experience at the foothills of the Arenal Volcano. Jarvin was our guide, and he was fantastic! 10 minutes into the ride and he spotted a sloth at the top of a tree. He was very knowledgeable about the wildlife, the biodiversity and the history behind the famous volcano. He was an excellent guide, very attentive and kind. The horses were calm. I can't think of a better way to get up close and take in that breathtaking view of that majestic volcano. Highly recommend this tour and Jarvin. Thoroughly enjoyable!

I went with my kids (13 and 10). This was our first time ziplining, and we all enjoyed it. The tour went really quickly, maybe because our party was small. Our guides were nice, but not super talkative. Having done a different zipline in another part of Costa Rica, for the same price, I will say that this is a "starter" course for some of the more "extreme" lines you can do in other areas.

I just came from Rio Celeste and I still can't believe what I saw. It was a great experience. The place is so beautiful and full of nature. We spend the night at Finca Ecológica Garza del Sol. It is an amazing place. The owners are local, so they know the area really well. My daughter wanted to see the sloths and Diego went to see if the sloths were close. He couldn't find them at their place, but he immediately contacted a friend and took us to another place to see the sloths! That was amazing and for sure NOT expected! However, we loved it! The food at the restaurant was really good! we are Costa Ricans, so we expect local food to taste like LOCAL food! that was they gave us! We loved it! The cabins are amazing! close to the river, so you sleep really good hearing the sound of the water. Everything is as you see it in the pictures. No bad surprises, only good surprises

The land is beautiful and the pools of differing temps are refreshing and gorgeous. The only reason I didn't say exceptional is that I was expecting a hard hike and looking forward to that. If you are a hiker, this isn't what you would be expecting. Lots of stairs/climbs up and down...but very slow with lots of stops for information. I enjoyed learning, but just didn't have that in my mind. The staff has so much information about the rain forest and I learned a lot. It's a great place!
