Program details

Speed through the jungle to get up close and personal with Costa Rica's most explosive inhabitant, the active Arenal volcano, before relaxing in the heated jacuzzis at Baldí hot springs. This fantastic tour will show you Costa Rica's youngest volcano, the 7,500-year-old Arenal, which is noted for its regular small eruptions and rumblings. Thankfully living next to a volcano is not all bad, as the Baldí hot springs can attest. Safely situated outside the risk area, the springs benefit from the volcano's geothermal heat as well as stunning views.

On your way to Arenal, pass through La Fortuna, the closest town, where on a clear day you can enjoy unparalleled views of the mighty colossus towering above. Thankfully these days the volcano’s pretty quiet, although you might still feel the odd growl at your next destination, the Baldí hot springs, the most extensive hot spring facility in the area, with peaceful pools of various temperatures set idyllically among the lush tropical plants, as well as lots of quiet paths to explore.



Once you have heated up, cooled down and been pummelled into bliss by the waterfalls, it's time for a tasty dinner full of local specialities. Now is your chance to witness the spectacle of the volcano at night, as the red lava snakes down the mountain and illuminates the sky like a magnificent display of fireworks. With the magic of the volcano and the relaxing powers of the hot spring waters, you'll return from this unforgettable trip inspired and refreshed, with the image of the magnificent volcano forever in your heart.
