What you can expect

Experience the Arenal Volcano and La Fortuna region through a private, fully flexible journey centered on authenticity, local connection, and meaningful exploration rather than fixed tourist itineraries.

Thanks to the geography of the region, the Arenal Volcano can be appreciated from multiple scenic vantage points throughout the day. This allows us to adapt stops based on weather, visibility, and your personal interests while maintaining a relaxed and natural pace.

This experience goes far beyond standard sightseeing. Guests may choose to participate in immersive local activities such as visiting a working rural farm where coffee and sugar cane are grown, cows are milked, and traditional Costa Rican meals are prepared with guest participation. This hands-on interaction offers rare access to everyday rural life and cultural traditions.

Additional optional experiences include:

• Visits to La Fortuna Waterfall
• Rainforest walks and nature exploration
• Chocolate or coffee experiences
• Sloth observation areas
• Scenic viewpoints and lesser-known local stops
• Exploration of regional roadside vendors and local products

The route intentionally includes travel through middle-class and working communities, providing genuine context about daily life outside resort zones and packaged tourism environments.

Entrance fees are not included, allowing complete flexibility in shaping the day. Food stops are selected based on your preferences and dietary needs.

Whether you prefer iconic highlights or off-the-beaten-path immersion, this private experience adapts entirely to you — delivering comfort, depth, and authenticity throughout the journey.

A personalized experience designed around curiosity, connection, and discovery.
