Arenal Volcano Tours in February 2026

Traveling with G Adventures made the experience of being in a new country where we don’t speak the language very easy and we learned and saw so much in our relatively short time in the country. Our guide Berny was incredible and helped us so much in so many ways from logistics, problem-solving, to local knowledge and it was clear that he cared very much about our enjoyment and also had a passion for the animal and plant-life of the area and the culture of Costa Rica. He always made us feel comfortable and taken care of. We loved that the kids had peers to travel with and the adults were nice companions as well. We would certainly consider doing another G Family Adventure soon.

G Adventures provided our family with the perfect adventure we were looking for! Our CEO, Berny, made the experience fun and exciting and safe for our family of five, with kids from 8 to 14. We have already recommended G Adventures, and Berny, to our friends and family!

A brilliant trip that shows the diversity of Costa Rica. From lagoons to rainforests to dry forests and cloud forests and beaches we saw so much of this lovely country and its flora and fauna. Highly recommended.

Just recently returned from a fantastic tour of Costa Rica and its natural wonders. This was our very first tour taken with Exodus tour and given our experience we are sure to consider Exodus in our future travel plans. My wife and I were the two token Canadians in the group. We had a wonderful bunch of tour mates who all shared a light hearted sense of humour and concern for our world. The central location of the Hotel Presidente – our first and last night accommodation – was ideal as it allowed us to readily partake in several of the sites of San Jose (all within walking distance). The two night stay in each location worked out perfectly. The “Eco” accommodations were top notch and not detached from nature like a 4-star hotel would be. Nor were we “roughing it”. The activities were not too taxing. We enjoyed the fact that our daily activities typically did not start before 8am. We were Initially concerned that the tour might not be active enough for us, however, there was often the option to do more or less. Thanks to the keen eye and in-depth knowledge of our Guide Jorge Lizano Suarez, we observed a wealth of wildlife. His enthusiasm was evident as he continued to add to our group’s running list of “must see” flora and fauna.

We toured Costa Rica as a couple in a group of ten in January 2024. Our guide Jorge Diaz did a fantastic job of showing us many of the different sights, sounds and experiences his country has to offer.

Overall, I give this experience a 10/10. It was my first international trip solo and I had the best time ever. The option to stay an extra night on either end of the trip was perfect. The option for transportation to and from the airport was really appreciated, as I was by myself in a new country. I got to experience so many parts of Costa Rica in a two-week period that I would not have been able to do if I was alone. I am already looking for my next trip to book. I will be a G customer for a long time and recommend it to anyone who will listen!
