Day 2 · February 2, 2026

Chasing waterfalls and lava trails

-Kick off your morning with a delicious breakfast at the resort – you're gonna need the energy!

-First up, we're visiting the stunning La Fortuna Waterfall. This 70-meter-high cascade is more than just a pretty sight; it's a community treasure nestled within a 210-hectare biological reserve that's part of Arenal Volcano National Park. Brace yourself for a descent down 530 steps, but trust us, the journey is worth it. At the bottom, dive into the crystal-clear waters of the Fortuna River for a refreshing swim and snap some epic photos from the spacious viewpoint.

Explore self-guided trails that wind through lush flora and fauna, tracing the old lava flows from the volcano's dramatic 1968 eruption. Reach the viewpoint, and with a bit of luck, you'll score a breathtaking view of the majestic Arenal Volcano looming right in front of you.

A day of adventure with ziplining and river rafting!

-Start your morning with a hearty breakfast at the resort – fuel up, because today is all about thrills!

-Take to the skies with an epic ziplining adventure. Soar over the lush rainforest canopy, catching panoramic views of the Arenal Volcano and the vibrant ecosystem below. Feel the wind in your hair as you glide from platform to platform – it's an unforgettable way to experience the jungle.

-Next up, we're hitting the Balsa River for some whitewater rafting action. Tackle Class II and III rapids as you navigate through stunning tropical scenery. Keep an eye out for wildlife like monkeys and exotic birds along the riverbanks. Don't worry if you're new to rafting; our expert guides will make sure everyone stays safe while having a blast.

-After all that excitement, we'll stop at a private restaurant to indulge in a traditional Costa Rican lunch. Enjoy authentic dishes that highlight the rich flavors and culinary traditions of the region.

Day 4 · February 4, 2026

Enjoy a thrilling canyoning expedition like no other

-After a hearty breakfast, we're embarking on a unique canyoning excursion, the only one in the area featuring evacuation exits on every platform for added safety and peace of mind. The tour includes five exhilarating descents: three down cascading waterfalls, one along a rugged wall, and a controlled free fall that'll get your heart racing. With walls supporting most descents (except the free fall), it's perfect for building confidence, even if it's your first time. The adventure kicks off with a 300-meter trail and wraps up with a 450-meter trail, immersing you in the stunning natural beauty of the canyon. Our team of internationally trained professionals – who renew their licenses annually – will guide you every step of the way, ensuring a safe and unforgettable experience. Midway through, we'll pause to enjoy a delicious lunch included in the excursion.

-After conquering the canyon, we'll head back to the resort. The evening is yours to relax, share stories from the day, or explore more of the local scene.
