Volcano, Falls and Floating Incl. lunch

This adventure starts with the Safari Float where we navigate a raft boat.  Its material allows it to be light, highly buoyant, and stable without affecting the river floor as it passes or disturbing the animals that inhabit it. This way to explore the forest allows observing many species of arboreal and aquatic animals such as monkeys, sloths, iguanas, turtles, caimans, and different types of birds, along with the possibility of observing a reptile species called the basilisk lizard, which is capable of walking on water. The interesting vegetation includes dense branches of ficus, luehea, and kapok trees full of lianas and epiphytic plants, which intersect from both sides of the river forming tunnels full of various shapes and exuberant green colors where very little sunlight gets through.

After enjoying local snacks, the next sightseeing attraction is La Fortuna Waterfall. This spectacular waterfall is over 70 meters (230 ft.) high. To get there, a challenging trail of 530 steps must be walked, allowing observation down.

Next, will be the favorite part for those seeking local gastronomy, the tour includes a delicious lunch. At La Finquita Farm you can taste and smell authentic Costa Rican food, prepared with local ingredients and home-grown.

As a perfect closing, the last activity involves a hike at a private trail and viewpoint, right at the base of the Arenal Volcano. Once there, we start a walk on the trails that crosses the regenerating forest area and crosses over a large block of petrified lava, produced by past eruptions, steep slopes, and sandy soils. It is possible to observe a great variety of plants, wildlife, and magnificent rock formations, in addition to the volcanic landscape, the place offers a wonderful view of Lake Arenal. During the tour, our experienced guides will provide you with interesting and educational information regarding the history of the Volcano, lithological cycles, forest formation processes, and general volcanology.
