Arenal Volcano
Monteverde Cloud Forest
Nature walks, wildlife and hot springs

This trip is the perfect combination of exploring the Arenal region and the Monte Verde Cloud Forest.

We will start in Arenal which is famous for its 7000 year old Volcano and the natural hot springs. In Arenal we will do nature walks, spot wildlife, explore hot springs and generally enjoy the amazing flora and fauna. It is truly an amazing area to visit.

After exploring Arenal and its volcano, we will transfer to Monteverde Cloud Forest. The transfer is going to be full of adventure as it will be a Jeep-Boat-Jeep ride! Monteverde is special because of the cloud forests where amazing canopy tours take place. Monteverde’s cloud forests are the byproduct of fog, a thick, low-hanging cloud, tangling amongst the leaves and branches of the forest canopy. We will among others enjoy a very nice hike here. Monteverde is full of adventure and the best place to end this trip!

Please do see the day-by-day itinerary for a detailed overview of this tour.
