Cloud Forest Canopies & Nocturnal Wonders
Prepare for a full day of adrenaline and awe! Your morning kicks off gliding up into the misty peaks on the Sky Tram gondola. Take in panoramic views of the Arenal Volcano before flying back down on the Sky Trek—a thrilling 7-cable zipline circuit hitting speeds up to 40mph (with stress-free automatic braking!). Catch your breath on the Sky Walk, exploring lush trails and six massive hanging bridges suspended high above the jungle floor. After heading back to the hotel to recharge and grab dinner, it’s time to grab a flashlight! You’ll step out into the dark for a 2-hour Guided Night Tour to spot sloths, tree frogs, and other hidden critters waking up under the stars.
Wild Waterfalls & Horseback Riding
Strap on your hiking boots for an epic half-day journey deep into the Monteverde wilderness! This self-guided adventure starts with a rugged, 3-mile downhill trek where you will cross ten picturesque hanging bridges, discover natural river pools, and marvel at four stunning waterfalls. Take a refreshing wild swim to cool off, and then—for the ultimate Costa Rican twist—skip the steep uphill hike back! You will saddle up for a scenic 30-minute horseback ride to conquer the elevation, then reward your efforts with a delicious, freshly prepared lunch.
Cloud Forest Secrets & Costa Rican Flavors
Step into a living fairytale this morning with a guided hike through the legendary Monteverde Cloud Forest Reserve. With a local expert and a high-definition spotting scope by your side, you’ll uncover the forest’s hidden wonders and scan the misty canopy for the elusive, vibrantly colored Resplendent Quetzal! After heading back to your hotel to relax and grab lunch, get ready to tantalize your tastebuds. You will head to a lush local farm for a top-rated 3-in-1 tasting tour, tracing the magical journey of Costa Rica’s finest exports—from coffee bean to cup, cacao pod to chocolate bar, and raw sugarcane to sweet treats. And yes, generous tastings are absolutely included!
Check out and goodbyes
Enjoy one last plate of gallo pinto and a steaming cup of Monteverde coffee as you soak in the mountain views one final time. After checking out, your private driver will be waiting to whisk you down the mountain, trading the misty cloud forest for the airport. While it is time to head home, the memories of wild waterfalls, thrilling ziplines, and that peaceful Pura Vida rhythm will stay with you long after takeoff. Safe travels!
