Eventhough El Arenal was mysteriously hiding in fogs, we had a great hike with guide Albert. That guy sure knows how to explain nature, eruptions, history and everything else you would like to know.
The flora and faunda has no secrets to him. We’ve learned a lot today! And had a great time as well. Thanks Albert!

Arenal Volcano in La Fortuna was impressive to say the least! Hiking up to the base of the Volcano was an amazing experience. We paid to enter the park and hiked on our own without a guide. The trails are marked you cant get lost. You cannot hike up to the crater, it is illegal now. Bring water and hiking shoes.
I loved the town of La Fortuna, it was quiet and beautiful. There isn't much to do there and it gets dark by 5:45-6:00. We went to the hot springs, in Eco Termales, which were nice but not worth the price we paid ($47 pp). The Soda restaurants are a great place to eat, affordable and the food is GREAT. Do yourself a favor and get a batido de sandia con leche, you will thank me later!
We later visited Monteverde and Manuel Antonio but I think I liked La Fortuna the best!

We had a great private tour with Jasmine as our guide. She was very knowledgeable about the plants and animals. She was very friendly and made it a point to look for plants and animals to show us through her spotting scope. She had even brought walking sticks just in case, which my husband did need. We had a really enjoyable time with Jasmine and learned a lot about the volcano, plants, and animals.
