Arenal Canopy and Horseback Riding Adventure

The guide was fantastic especially the horseback riding guides.

What a great adventure!!! Shoutout to Christopher, Nelson, Dylan, Andre, plus the beautiful girl driving (forgot her name). Each went above and beyond to insure we had a great experience. The Zip lining and horseback riding tour was not just a quick thrill, it was half day adventure / educational experience. Highly recommend!

I am sorry to have to post this review but if I could give 0 stars I would. Our family of 4 arrived and were paired with horses. My daughter was paired with a horse that galloped and did not listen, and was terrified the entire ride up. At the top, she started to cry so I insisted that we switch horses. We continued down the mountain together. At the bottom, my husband's horse became crazed, ran across the highway, jumped past a closed barrier with barbed wire, and threw him to the ground. My husband landed on his back and is lucky to be alive. While the company took him to the hospital and handled the xrays, he ended up black and blue the rest of the trip, with me and my two daughters completely shocked and traumatized. To see his horse run off in the distance with my husband screaming desperately; only for the horse to return a couple minutes later alone was a gut - renching experience that I would never wish on anyone. Please consider a company that is more sensitive to selecting safe and well trained horses. I would never recommend for children or anyone due to safety concerns. This outcome could have been far worse but the fear and terror will remain in our memories forever.

This was an amazing experience! I would give six stars if I could. The pickup from our hotel was dead simple and the driver was perfectly on time. Our two tour guides (Charlie and Dillon) were the nicest people. In fact, everyone involved was extremely friendly. The horse riding tour itself was breath taking. The horses were easy to ride, though each has their own personality, so getting to know your horse was important. Some parts of the trail required the horses to be nimble and slow and other parts allowed them to run. It was both uphill and downhill on rock trails and grass. The Zipline part was phenomenal! Oh my gosh the views!!! I have a fear of heights but had no issues doing this course. There's something about flying through trees securely in a harness that eliminated all fears. It was odd. I was nervous but after the first one had zero reservations. Charlie went above and beyond. One of our party members dropped their phone on the trail at some point. They didn't know they did until the end. Charlie went back out and found it rather quickly saving the day. The only thing to note is tips can only be made in cash. At least at the time of writing this. This was an A++++ experience all around. I'd highly recommend it.

Fun time with the horse ride and zip lining. My wife was put on a mule which proved to be true to its temperament. It was very stubborn and it was not easy for her to control. Other than that, it was a wonderful experience.

We had the best time! Joel was a friendly and knowledgeable guide. Since my sister and I had horseback riding experience, he put us on fast horses and let us go! It was lovely. The ziplining was also a great time. Highly recommend. The staff are all incredible. Once in a lifetime experience.

We did the horseback riding and zip line adventure. Joel, our horse guide, was kind, knowledgeable and an excellent guide. The horses were calm and responsive. The tour had great views and many sights. We saw a sloth, many agouti, a wide array of birds. The zip line crew was clearly competent but also fun and entertaining. The experience felt safe with spectacular views.

Might have been the highlight of the trip. Ziplines were crazy cool (and long!) and the horse back riding was incredible - some of the horses had such personality! Make sure you are honest with the employees about your level of riding experience, as they will 100% believe you, and most of the horses want to explore. Absolutely incredible - spiritual experience. I’m afraid of heights and did this, and it was INCREDIBLE. Have faith in yourself and do this tour!

Our guide was more than amazing, made us feel safe. We were lucky enough to be the only ones that booked that morning so we essentially got a private tour, I honestly wish I did this part a second time around with my husband before we left, we truly enjoyed every aspect! They are all about PURA VIDA VIBES! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for making it truly memorable.

This was an adrenaline filled day for all of us! My young kids loved galloping the horses along the scenic path to the Arenal volcano. Our guide was knowledgeable and a great horse handler. Some paths were a little rough and difficult so I’d recommend this experience for an intermediate rider or request an easy path before beginning your trek. The zip lining was also very scenic! We were done in less than an hour with the zip lines. The kids loved both experiences equally. Highly recommend for active kids!
