Description
This one day takes you to one of the most beloved natural attractions in Costa Rica: Arenal Volcano.
First, you'll stop by a small town called Sarchi on the way, which is famous for its woodwork, craftsmanship and handmade arts. Your stop will be a traditional ox cart factory, which is one of the most important cultural sites in the country, and you will also see the world's largest ox cart.
After the Sarchi visit, you'll continue onto the town of La Fortuna, the main tourism hub of Arenal Volcano for a tasty traditional lunch.
After lunch, you'll go to a private reserve for a short walk to a scenic viewpoint, to see the impressive Arenal Volcano and pristine Lake Arenal. You'll have plenty of time here to take lots of photos and soak in all the views while admiring the near perfect conical shape of the volcano.
Your guide will share some facts about Arenal Volcano, the huge eruption back in 1968 and why this area is so important to Costa Rica.
Then, you'll end the day at the hot springs resort of your choosing. Dinner is included at the hot springs resort and you can choose between these amazing resorts.
