Rio Celeste Hiking, Sloth Sanctuary & Llanos de Cortes Waterfall Tour
nicoleaU3507HI, Jul 2026
Jungle experience and beyond!
This was a 5/5 experience! We were picked up and dropped off right at our hotel. Kevin, our guide, was kind, courteous, and very knowledgeable. The first waterfall and swimming experience was both beautiful and refreshing. At the eco park we saw 4 sloths, a viper snack, poison dart frog and more! Lunch was appetizing and filling at the top of the cloud forest. And the Rio Celeste falls were stunning. Natures way will tell you everything to pack so keep an eye out for those emails. The weather is unpredictable in the mountains. Prepare for a long drive home. I had a movie downloaded on my phone.

Coffee and Chocolate Tasting Tour with Danny
Very detail oriented, lots of details about coffee and chocolate including techniques and other things as well as hands on experiences like grinding the beans on top of the tastings, they also preformed hand arounds of related objects. On this tour I learned a lot about coffee and cacao as well as the industry and more general knowledge, our tour guide was Danny and was excellent at explaining and answering questions as well as letting us see everything clearly.

Awesome quick tour over Cost Rica
The tour was great. Fernando, our guide, entertained us all the way, and it really feels like the best option to see Costa Rica for those who only have few days in the country. I was very happy to see the coffee plantation and waterfalls, taste local coffee and relax in the hot springs. Definitely recommend it.

Arenal Canopy Adventure & Tarzan Swing
P9891NOelizabethc, Jul 2026
Must Experience the Rainforest via zipline.
We enjoyed our zipline and Tarzan swing with Dylan, David and Gabriel. Ask for these 3! They are the best ! Safety first ! We started with a detailed safety mini course. And I felt very prepared. The heights, the rainforest, Howler monkeys, and birds made this even better. Our kids even did spider man style moves towards the end. This is an adrenaline rush and dopamine hit kind excursion. The Tarzan swing makes you feel the essence of Pura Vida. Def recommended ! One note, it was drizzling the entire time of our zipline. And it was better.felt like we were cruising through the clouds. The animals were out! It's a different experience to see and FEEL the rainforest. We were sooo happy. Thank you for a great day !

Sloths Watching Tour through Sloth’s Territory
Cecilia_H, Jul 2026
Amazing!!
This was an amazing tour! They walk the property & mark the areas they find sloths so you are guaranteed to see a sloth. We were fortunate enough to see one moving & a momma/baby that hadn’t been marked. Our tour guide also used his telescope to capture videos/pics of the sloths, lizards, frogs, birds all the things that we came across, so that was great. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable, took the time to answer questions. Our group was very small. This was honestly the best tour that we took. Would 100% recommend.

An awesome excursion !
This was such a fun and memorable experience. Booked last minute and it was amazing and highlight of my trip. Although one waterfall was canceled it was replaced with a coffee and chocolate making experience and it was still by far the best experience overall. Daphne and Miguel were great tour guides and took good care of us. So glad I found this excursion it is truly worth it!
