Day 1

Arrive in San Jose & transfer to Tabacon Thermal Resort, Arenal Volcano

Upon your morning or afternoon arrival into San Jose, meet your driver private transfer by ground approximately 3 hours to the Arenal Volcano area. Although the volcano is currently in a resting phase, the region offers exciting opportunities.

Day 2

Rio Balsa Whitewater Rafting (Class II-III)

The Balsa River offers a range of class II and III rapids for both first-time paddlers and experienced paddlers looking for a challenge. The dynamic on this river is typical of most rivers in the Northern Zone of Costa Rica: continuous Class III rapids with small pools in between for the first half, and less intense rapids (great for wildlife watching) in the second half. The Balsa River is set in the lowlands of the rainforest, providing breath-taking views of nature. You might spot tropical birds and other mammals across the jungle landscapes that surround the river region. Overnight Tabacón Thermal Resort.

Day 3

Arenal Sky Tram & Trek Canopy Zipline

Board the Sky Tram, which gives you great views of the volcano and Lake Arenal on the way up to your zipline adventure.  The Sky tram ends at a wide observation platform at the highest point of the Arenal Reserve. Here you will receive a quick safety briefing from your guides before you head off into the canopy! The Sky Trek is an adventure above the treetops, which consists of 7 zip-lines located throughout the forest. As you fly through the canopy, admire the beauty of Lake Arenal and the impressive volcano in the background. Zip across 7 transverse cables with lengths ranging from 30 – 750 meters long and 20 – 200 meters high. At these heights, you’ll exceed the tops of the largest trees on the mountain and enjoy incredible panoramic views. Overnight Tabacón Thermal Resort.
