Limon to La Fortuna: Private day trip

Discover La Fortuna, nestled at the base of the iconic Arenal Volcano in one of Costa Rica's most spectacular natural settings, where active volcanism creates a landscape of incredible beauty and biodiversity. Explore Arenal Volcano National Park (open 8 AM to 4 PM with a $15 entry fee), where hiking trails wind through primary rainforest, past ancient lava flows, and around Arenal Lake, offering opportunities to spot sloths, howler monkeys, toucans, and hundreds of other species that thrive in this protected ecosystem. Experience the natural hot springs heated by underground volcanic activity, where you can soak in mineral-rich thermal waters surrounded by lush tropical gardens while listening to the sounds of the rainforest and watching for the red glow of lava flows that occasionally illuminate the volcano's perfect cone shape during evening hours. Visit local coffee plantations to learn about sustainable agriculture in volcanic soil, take canopy tours through the cloud forest, or explore the hanging bridges that provide bird's-eye views of the forest canopy where three-toed sloths, colorful frogs, and exotic birds create one of the world's most biodiverse ecosystems. The town serves as an adventure hub for activities like white-water rafting, zip-lining, and wildlife observation, while maintaining its authentic Costa Rican character through local markets, traditional restaurants serving casado and other regional specialties, and the warm hospitality of Ticos who take pride in their country's commitment to environmental conservation and sustainable tourism that protects this natural paradise for future generations.
