Did anyone use the option of flying from Tortuguero to Arenal Volcano Region, on day 4? 40 minutes vs 7 hours - is it worth it? Or is it a nice boat ride and drive?

June 29, 2018|

Answer

Hi Sheryl, I recommend you to fly in the route back to La Fortuna, when the tour to Tortuguero starts you will experiment the same boat ride.

Hi, I booked an all day tour for the hanging bridges, volcanos and waterfalls... what should I wear? Do I need hiking shoes? Long pants/leggings for April? Water shoes? I’m thinking rain coat, sunscreen and bug spray for sure.

I agree with the previous answer - I was there in January and wire light, long rain pants that could be unzipped. You need long pants for zip lining. But I also wear them because I am highly allergic to big bites so it’s up... More

Arenal Volcano Hike - AM or PM (6 Replies)

We are going to be going on Ecoterra's Arenal Hike/Ectoermales Hot Springs and dinner package. We have the option of an 8 am - 4:30 pm slot, or a 2:30 - 9:30 time. Any advice on which would be preferable and why would be much appreciated.

Response fromIncabod|

tough, IMO I prefer hiking in the morning for weather and wildlife viewing, and prefer the springs t night when it is nice and cool out. Tough call, you will need to decide what your priorities are and go from there.
