Arenal vulkan og termiske varme kilder fra San Jose
Beskrivelse
Dit eventyr begynder i den maleriske by Sarchí, der er anerkendt som det håndværksmæssige hjerte i Costa Rica. Oplev familieworkshops, hvor håndværkere skaber farverige håndmalede oksekøretøjer, træmøbler og souvenirs, der afspejler generationer af traditioner. Derefter rejser du gennem Costa Ricas frugtbare landskab af store ananas-, mango- og bananfarme og traditionelle kvægfarme. Ankomst til La Fortuna for en typisk frokost på en restaurant med panoramaudsigt over Arenal vulkanen. Denne ikoniske 1,633 meter høje vulkan dominerer horisonten og definerer regionens landskab. Efter frokost, fordyb dig i en unik termisk oplevelse. La Fortuna området er verdenskendt for sine naturlige varme kilder, opvarmet af Arenal vulkanens geotermiske aktivitet. Mange pools er forbundet af små vandfald og termiske vandrutsjebaner for et komplet sensorisk eventyr. Afslut din dag med en lækker middag, mens du overvejer Arenals silhuet mod solnedgangens himmel, inden du vender tilbage til San José.
Turmuligheder
Rejseplan
Enroute til Arenal Volcano vil der være et stop i den berømte by Sarchi, kendt som fødestedet for Costa Ricas håndværkere. I Sarchi kan du meget godt se en okse vogn, der holder titlen som den største ox vogn i verden. Vognen er lavet af træ (cedertræ) og er dekoreret med flotte farver, såsom en lys orange. Designet er typisk og indviklet, hvilket tyder på traditionelle oxcarts. Oxen vognen er to historier høj og tog 70 dage at fuldføre. Oskartet fortjener også en hæderlig omtale i Guinness-bogen over verdensrekorder.
Rejsen vil så fortsætte med at krydse forskellige plantager med landbrugsprodukter, herunder ananasplanter og mango lunde, prydplanter og kvægrancher, indtil de kommer til den lille by La Fortuna og stopper for at nyde frokost i en hyggelig restaurant med en fantastisk udsigt over Arenal vulkanen.
Den imponerende Arenal Volcano er et storslået naturligt vidunder, der ligger i Fortuna i San Carlos, Costa Rica, hvilket giver tusinder og tusindvis af turister mulighed for at bevidne vulkansk aktivitet, som f.eks. De røde hvide røg, der stammer fra den koniske formede behemoth. Det er vigtigt at bemærke, at vulkanen tidligere var antaget at være slumrende, indtil i 1968, da den oplevede en større udbrud.
Derefter vil du slappe af ved en af de bedste varme kilder i området, hvor du vil nyde de foryngende virkninger af det termiske vand, samt en valgfri massage eller anden særlig behandling, der skal reserveres på forhånd. Og for en perfekt afslutning, før du vender tilbage til San José, vil en vidunderlig middag blive serveret med en fantastisk udsigt over vulkanen, så du ikke går glip af nogen mulighed for at se den fantastiske og klassisk formet vulkan endnu en gang.

The tour was pretty much a transport service. The guide spoke mostly Spanish and only the bare minimum was translated into English. The hot springs was my highlight and the reason why I booked this tour. The group ended up being divided into 3 different hot springs which was weird and we also had to wait for everyone to check in so if you are the last one you easily loose 30min. The drive is long and the roads are very curvey across the mountains so beware if you get motion sickness. I had to discuss with the guide cause she insisted that I should sit in the back just because I was solo. 3 stars cause the driver and the sights were great incl. the food but the guide was terrible and did not make me feel welcome.
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We're pleased to hear that you enjoyed the beautiful scenery, the hot springs experience, the food, and the professionalism of your driver. We also appreciate your comments regarding the transportation logistics and guide communication. Because this tour brings together guests visiting different hot spring facilities, some waiting time during check-in can occasionally occur as we coordinate the various destinations. We regret that you felt the English interpretation and overall interaction from the guide did not meet your expectations, as we strive to make every guest feel welcome and included throughout the experience. Your observations are valuable and will be shared with our operations team as we continuously work to improve the guest experience
I give this tour 5 out of 5. Eric was absolutely amazing. I love the fact that he spoke English very well. He was so knowledgeable and friendly. He definitely gave superb customer service. He represented Costa Rica very well. My absolute favorite part of the tour was the Hot Springs. You definitely have to get a massage. I received a massage from a woman named Caroline, and she had the hands of a goddess! So good. I love the fact they provided lunch and dinner, but the food could have been a little bit better.
Thank you so much for your fantastic review! We’re thrilled to hear that Eric made such a positive impact on your experience and delivered the level of service we strive for. It’s great to know you enjoyed the hot springs and had such a memorable massage with Caroline—that sounds like a highlight! We also appreciate your feedback regarding the food, as it helps us continue improving the overall experience for our guests.
They never came to pick me up from my hotel for the trip as they said they would, in writing. After waiting for them to come, I tried calling and texting them and they never responded. They never notified me they weren’t coming. I hope to get mymoney back for this non trip.
We’re very sorry for this experience and understand how frustrating it is. This is not the service we aim to provide. Please contact our customer support team directly with your booking details so we can review what happened and assist you with the refund process as soon as possible.
My taste was very sensational, well as the guide Paul very attentive and experienced you have a lot of capacity
Excellent guide with lots of knowledge . We had a comfortable ride and stopped at interesting places as well as a wonderful restaurant. We were never felt hurried.
We’re delighted to hear you enjoyed the comfortable ride and the chance to visit interesting stops along the way. It’s great to know your guide’s knowledge helped make the experience even more special, and that you never felt rushed. We’re also glad you enjoyed the restaurant—it’s always a highlight!
I am not going to sugarcoat this review, we had a terrible experience. I booked a trip for six people (3 couples). I sent the link for this excursion, yet everyone else had a proper reservation, yet our reservation was not found. After going round and round about the happening, we ended up having to pay $404 (which was more than the original cost) to book with another company so that we could all be together. Perhaps it was a mistake on my end and I am fine with acknowledging that, but the bigger issue is no one ever showed up to pick my wife and I up from the original reservation. No communication or anything. We were able to get our money back from the first reservation due to this fake, so this company has to be held accountable for bad business practices. Book at your own discretion.
On the way to Arenal we stopped at a park and factory where we learned about the history of oxcart manufacturing and painting. The walk to Arenal and view were beautiful. Hot sptings at Los Lagos worth the trip.
Arenal Volcano is one of the most active and iconic volcanoes in Costa Rica. It is located in Arenal National Park. Arenal volcano is a remarkable stratovolcano, it has a conical shape typical of volcanoes. It was constantly erupting from its reactivation in 1968 until 2010. Parking is right outside the park entrance. Admission is subject to charge. 6 trails of different durations and difficulties will be offered. The volcano is not directly accessible. Beautiful views of the Arenal and its lake at its base you can enjoy.
Absolutely horrible!!!!! No communication whatsoever… whoever runs this experience needs to get fired! I’m coming for the United States my number doesn’t work here so I have WhatsApp and the tour guide should have had WhatsApp as well for 1 week now I emailed I tried calling from the hotel I contacted support absolutely horrible! I hope the same thing happens to them!
We’re truly sorry for the frustration this experience caused. We understand how upsetting it is when communication fails, especially while traveling internationally and relying on WhatsApp and email. This is not the level of service we expect from our team or partners. Your feedback has been shared internally so we can review what went wrong with the communication and prevent this from happening again. We appreciate you bringing this to our attention and regret the inconvenience it caused during your visit.
It is a good tour you eat rich in two places, the tour of Sarchi is the essential to buy your wagon, the volcano if it is not cloudy you can see and the thermals are delicious
