Relaxing Tour with Stunning Views

Published on Sep, 2024

If you're looking for minimal activity and more relaxation, this tour is perfect. The viewpoint for Arenal Volcano is breathtaking, and the hot springs at Baldi are incredibly soothing. There's also a spa if you’re in the mood for a massage—I tried it, and it was amazing. The tour bus is spacious and comfortable, and the driver was excellent. It’s the best tour bus driving experience I’ve had in Costa Rica. Nela, the tour guide, is very patient and knowledgeable, making the trip even more enjoyable. I would definitely recommend this tour, especially towards the end of your vacation when you’re seeking more leisure than adventure.

Incredible tour

Published on Mar, 2024

Our tour guide was incredible. First our meeting point was at 6am when we woke up, our car battery died and couldn’t find a jump. By the time we call the car company for help it was already 6:30am. I tried to cancel but it was too late, the tour company came to pick us up which was incredibly thoughtful (thank you for that). The tour to La fortuna was very insightful. The volcano was awesome then OMG the Baldi was to die for, I could stay there all day. Hot water everywhere from the entrance until the end, nonstop, I loved it. Next time I’m in Costa Rica I’m definitely staying in the Caribbean side for sure.

Great one day experience...

Published on Jan, 2024

Great one day experience if you don’t have more time to spend in the Arenal area. Baldi hot springs were beautiful and so relaxing!

Amazing

Published on Dec, 2023

Amazing experience. Marcela was a very good instructor. Arenal visit is short but we spent around 4 hours in Baldi hot springs. Great views !

HOT SPRINGS FUN

Published on Dec, 2023

The volcano was covered in smoke but I still give this experience 10/10 the guide was so bubbly and sweet! When we got to the hot springs I was in love I didn’t want to leave we spent a good 4 hours there and it was therapeutic! The food was amazing (buffet style ) and drinks were great as well. This was probably my fav experience on the trip this far.
