Arenal Hanging Bridges e La Fortuna Waterfall Combo Tour

We had such an amazing time on this tour. Our animal loving kids were in heaven in Mistico park. Our guide Jason helped them find so many animals and gave so much info. Our driver Jaime was waiting at the end with fresh fruit. Then we went to La Fortuna waterfall which was quite a hike but so worth it. Again Jason and Jaime handled all the details. Finally we went to El Rancho, Rainforest Explorers own restaurant, for lunch. We had a delicious meal. A Highlight day.

Mau, our tour guide and Miner our driver were outstanding. On time, very knowledgeable about everything we were seeing and doing. It rained the whole time yet didn’t both us (or them) a bit. We saw many animals and even stopped roadside to catch a sloth in action. The highlight of the trip was actually the lunch portion at the family ranch. Everything was warm, welcome and delicious. We had a group of 10 from age 5 to 75. All was perfect.

What a fantastic tour! Issac was an excellent knowledgeable and enthusiastic guide. The Mystico Hanging Bridges were an awesome introduction to the rain forest eco system. Issac had great eye for the wildlife and vegetation with awesome magnifying lens for close ups. The La Fortuna Falls were greatness given all the rain (but no swimming). A locally prepared lunch by the Rainforest Explorers team was the perfect ending!

This was such a great experience. Shout out to our tour guide Tony for being so amazing! He found every animal we wanted to see on this tour, including howler monkeys, spider monkeys, toucans, sloths, and poison dart frogs!! Doing the mistico hanging bridges with a guide is a must because a lot of the animals are so good at camoflouging themselves. The fortuna waterfall was beautiful, and the lunch was delicious and at such a peaceful location. I highly recommend this to anyone visiting La Fortuna!

This tour was phenomenal and the ideal way to experience such beautiful landmarks! Our guide spotted so many animals that we never would have known were there and happily helped us take photos through his scope. We saw three toucans and snake within the first 15 minutes and continued to see frogs, birds, bats, and more all throughout the tour. The bridges were so fun to cross and provided incredible views of the rainforest you truly can’t get anywhere else. The waterfall was beautiful and a great way to cool off after the hike - just be prepared for lots of stairs to get there and back. The included lunch to end the day was freshly cooked and delicious, provided by a lovely local restaurant. Transportation was smooth thanks to our great driver. Overall an unforgettable experience that we highly recommend for any La Fortuna trip!

If I could leave a hundred stars for this amazing, local, family-owned operation I totally would. Booking and confirmation was so easy with Ileana. Mario, Carlos, and Jaime took great care of our family during our tour through Mistico Hanging Bridges and La Fortuna waterfall. We did not book a private tour, but because our group was large enough they gave us one anyway. My mom has some mobility concerns and they were so very kind and patient with our group to ensure everyone had a fantastic experience. Mario was incredibly knowledgeable of the various wildlife in the tour. We saw two breeds of monkeys, three different breeds of frogs (including the transparent glass frog), the eyelash viper, tiny honey bees, various ant species, toucans, and a baby owl and her mama. Carlos walked behind with my mom to make sure she was comfortable and didn’t miss anything. Jaime ended our tour with a delicious fruit snack. We then had an amazing traditional Casados lunch at their family farm, where we saw amazing birds and met their family. The waterfall tour was equally as exciting and fun for my family. We loved everything so much we booked an unplanned Sloth tour with them tomorrow! The care and effort they take to ensure their customers and guests feel welcomed, educated, and happy went above and beyond. Cannot recommend this amazing family and service enough!

Really fun tour! Only 4-5 of us the entire time and our guide, Francisco, helped everyone feel at home. He made sure everyone got photos of the wildlife and pics on the bridges. The lunch was amazing! They were able to provide a vegan option.

The combination of the 2 adventures together was a good match. We found the hanging bridges with the guide Mau, from Rainforest Explorers, was extremely informative with animals/birds, eco system of the forest and history of the surrounding area. The falls gave us a chance to cool off and at the same time its beauty was breath taking. What an experience! To be taken to the Rainforest Explorers location to have a traditional lunch (from plantation to table) was a bonus! Our guide Mau took the time to make us feel welcomed in his country and provided us with his pictures he took on our tour. Jamie, the driver, was awesome as well. Yuliana, Viator Tour Operator, responded quickly to our need of an unexpected new pick up location, due to a hotel change. Yuliana made us feel we were in good hands from the start.

Awesome experience!! 5 star. Thanks very much Mau and Jamie! You are very knowledgeable and that enhanced our overall adventure. Well done and will always remember the Glass 🐸

Mauricio at Rainforest Explorers was so knowledgeable and helpful. He sent us beautiful photos from our walk and pointed out interesting insects and animals throughout. The lunch afterwards was outstanding. 10/10 experience
