Tabacon Hot Springs

I had an amazing experience with Eric hiking through the jungle and viewing the Vulcanóloga. He told me about the history and the nature of that magical place and showed me many different animals, such as sloth, snake and birds. Perfect ending with a visit to the hot springs to relax. Lovely!

Thank you for à good experience! We saw many different animals and the guides where very nolaygable.

This was a great tour. Our guide was friendly and very know of the area. I would recommend this to anyone interested in having a great hike up to the base of the volcano

At the end of the day, we are rating this 4-stars because we had a fabulous, awesome time at the Tobocan Hot Springs - the highlight of the day. Gorgeous scenery. The springs are wonderful and relaxing. The spa is extremely affordable, especially relative to prices back home in the USA. We had plenty of time to enjoy the springs for a good 3 hours. Dinner was authentic, delicious. The drinks were memorable, served in fruit. Wonderful! The timing at the Volcano observation "deck" was lack luster. It was short. Like 15 minutes short, at most, perhaps. Now, I'll admit with reading so many different options, I thought we'd experience more "AT" the volcano - there is an Arenal National Park. We didn't get near the national park; I had no idea it was an observation area. Maybe that's on me, ok. However, this seemed rushed. Maybe it was because we had an Hour for lunch - too much time. Maybe it's because we stopped to see "World Largest Ox Cart" in Sarchi (unplanned?, or at least not expected on the itinerary). The tour guide was nice. Could easily understand him. We stopped at a souvenir shop "off the beaten path," as the expression goes and found a couple good deals. Know that after shopping in/around San Jose Costa Rica, found the exact items we wanted to take home for a much more economical deal.

Awesome info and knowledgeable tour guide. He is kind and caring for the group. He let us taken time and waited for a slowest person

Junior was an excellent tour guide - we saw so much wildlife and he helped us get the best pictures. He went at our speed as I was recovering from surgery. Loved this tour.

We encountered a Viper, Toucans and other birds as well as a Sloth. Guide David did an exceptional job.

David T was a great guide! Very friendly, knowledgeable, and flexible. Passionate about snakes and birds and all the great flora and fauna in the area. It poured rain the whole tour but we still had a great time and would absolutely recommend this tour and David T in particular!

Great views of volcano at hike. Hot springs afterwards felt wonderful Guide very knowledgeable. We spotted a toucan

I loved everything about the tour. The tour guide was kind and informative. The tour was so rich in information and experience!

Wes and Juan were terrific guides. Knowledgeable in so many aspects of our experience while helping us appreciate the nature of this tour. The tour was challenging in some aspects but they were always helpful in assisting us to comfortably navigate to the top of the trail that we could "legally" climb to. The tour ended with a dip in the hot springs and we all enjoyed the warmth of the springs with some good spirits.

We had a great time. The shuttle picked us up promptly from our departure site. Our tour guide, Emanuel, was amazing. As we explored the nature trail around the volcano, he was very attentive and helped find interesting rocks for my daughter who has a collection. He also spotted amazing wildlife and explained the history of the volcano. The springs were a bit crowded, but the kids enjoyed it.
