Arenal Volcano Zipline and Hot Springs Private Tour

A full-day private experience that blends high canopy zipline routes through rainforest with a slower afternoon spent in volcanic hot springs. The journey moves between two very different environments, starting in the treetops above forest valleys and ending in naturally heated pools surrounded by tropical gardens.

🧭 Key Details

• Duration: 12 hours
• Format: Private
• Location: Arenal Volcano region

🌿 What to Expect

The day begins with a private pickup from San Jose and a drive towards the Arenal Volcano region, where the landscape shifts from rural countryside into dense rainforest and volcanic terrain. On arrival at the adventure park, you’ll be fitted with safety equipment and given a full briefing before starting the zipline course. The experience includes multiple canopy lines, with sections that pass above forested valleys and open viewpoints, plus an elevated tower that leads into longer cable runs with wider scenery across the surrounding area.

Once the zipline activity is complete, the journey continues by private transfer to the hot springs location. On arrival, a buffet lunch is served, giving time to pause before entering the thermal pools. The afternoon is then flexible, allowing you to move between different pools and relaxation areas at your own pace. Later in the day, the return journey to San Jose begins, travelling back through changing landscapes as the day winds down.

📍 Location

The experience takes place in the Arenal Volcano region, an area defined by volcanic activity, rainforest growth and rich biodiversity. The surroundings include forested hills, open valleys and geothermal features that shape the wider landscape.

The zipline course operates within a private forest reserve designed for canopy-level adventure, while the hot springs are located closer to the base of the volcano. Here, naturally heated water flows into a series of pools set within landscaped gardens and tropical vegetation.

⚠️ Prerequisites

No prior zipline experience is needed as full safety instruction and equipment are provided before the activity begins. Participants are guided through each stage of the course by trained staff.

Basic mobility is required for walking between platforms, climbing stairs and managing uneven terrain within the course. Comfort with heights is also important due to the elevated nature of the zipline sections.
