Descriptions:

Located 3 hours from San Jose, Arenal is a beautiful cone-shaped volcano rising out of flat, surrounding plains. It is the most active volcano in the country.

In the daytime, clouds of ash and smoke frequently billow into the sky. On clear nights, spectators are occasionally treated to eruptions of lava and burning rocks that explode into the air and shower down the cinder cone. Even when it is overcast, the rumblings venting and molten lava glowing through the clouds afford a very special experience.

Leaving San Jose in the mornig, you'll be arriving to the Arenal Hot Springs area in the middle afternoon. There, you will have the opportunity to learn more about the culture of the surroundings and its relationship with the volcano. Next, you will visit Baldi Hot Springs, where you can relax in the soothing waters and be caressed by the cool night air while observing the stars and the incredible night sky above the volcano. After all this, a great buffet dinner will be served.

The tour includes a visit to the picturesque town of Sarchi, where you will be able to buy beautiful souvenirs.
