Vulcano Arenal e sorgenti termali da San Jose
Descrizione
La tua avventura inizia nella pittoresca città di Sarchí, riconosciuta come il cuore artigianale della Costa Rica. Scopri laboratori familiari dove maestri artigiani creano colorati carri di buoi dipinti a mano, mobili in legno e souvenir che riflettono generazioni di tradizione. Successivamente, viaggia attraverso la fertile campagna del Costa Rica di vasti allevamenti di ananas, mango e banane e allevamenti di bovini tradizionali. Arrivo a La Fortuna per un pranzo tipico in un ristorante con vista panoramica sul vulcano Arenal. Questo iconico vulcano alto 1.633 metri domina l'orizzonte e definisce il paesaggio della regione. Dopo pranzo, immergetevi in un’esperienza termale unica. La zona di La Fortuna è famosa in tutto il mondo per le sue sorgenti termali naturali, riscaldate dall'attività geotermica del vulcano Arenal. Molte piscine sono collegate da piccole cascate e scivoli d'acqua termale per una completa avventura sensoriale. Termina la giornata con una deliziosa cena mentre contempli la silhouette di Arenal contro il cielo al tramonto prima di tornare a San José.

Itinerario
In rotta verso il vulcano Arenal ci sarà una fermata nella famosa città di Sarchi, conosciuta come la culla degli artigiani del Costa Rica. In Sarchi, puoi benissimo vedere un carro di buoi che detiene il titolo di essere il più grande carro di buoi al mondo. Il carrello è realizzato in legno (cedro) ed è decorato con colori sbalorditivi, come un arancio brillante. Il design è tipico e intricato, indicativo dei tradizionali carri trainati da buoi. Il carrello dei buoi è alto due piani e ci sono voluti 70 giorni per essere completato. Il carro di buoi merita anche una menzione d'onore nel libro dei Guinness dei primati.
Il viaggio continuerà poi, attraversando diverse piantagioni con prodotti agricoli, tra cui fattorie di ananas e boschetti di mango, piante ornamentali e allevamenti di bestiame fino ad arrivare alla piccola città di La Fortuna, e fermandosi a pranzare in un accogliente ristorante con una vista spettacolare di il vulcano Arenal.
L'imponente vulcano Arenal è una magnifica meraviglia naturale che si trova a La Fortuna (La fortuna) di San Carlos, in Costa Rica, che offre a migliaia e migliaia di turisti l'opportunità di assistere ad attività vulcaniche, come i pennacchi bianchi di fumo che provengono da il colosso a forma conica. È importante notare che il vulcano era stato precedentemente considerato assopito, fino al 1968, quando ebbe luogo una grande eruzione.
Poi vi rilasserete in una delle migliori sorgenti termali della zona dove potrete godere degli effetti rigeneranti delle acque termali, nonché di un massaggio opzionale o di altri trattamenti speciali che devono essere prenotati in anticipo. E per un finale perfetto, prima di tornare a San José, verrà servita una splendida cena con una splendida vista sul vulcano in modo da non perdere nessuna occasione per guardare ancora una volta il vulcano mozzafiato e dalle forme classiche.

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
