Arenal Volcano Highlights| Mistico Park-Arenal Volcano Park-La Fortuna Waterfall

If you book with Angelo, you will not be disappointed. He has years of experience and training and is very professional and dedicated. We communicated through WhatsApp before our trip, and Angelo helped us pick out the best tours for our needs. He responds very quickly and attentively to your questions and ideas. Once you meet Angelo, he makes you feel comfortable right away. With each tour he provides an excellent experience with knowledge and humor, and will take you to some great local restaurants. And having Angelo take care of your transport enables you to freely enjoy the scenery with a reliable and safe driver. You will get so used to his company, that when you part ways, you will miss your Costa Rica buddy!

We booked our entire Costa Rican vacation to the Arenal area through Angelo! He was amazing!!! He drove us everywhere and stopped wherever we desired. He also pointed out places along the way that he thought we might enjoy. His vehicles are very comfortable and accommodating. If you are planning a vacation to Costa Rica this is definitely the group you want to book with. You can book everything including other excursions for different companies such as the Arenal Rafting Company or PureTrek for Waterfall repelling. I recommend doing both, but the rafting was definitely my personal favorite. Booking everything through Angelo was so much smoother than booking everything individually. Plus, if you book everything through him then all your tours with him are private! Angelo is definitely a professional, he is very prepared he also brings along his high powered binoculars, his scope, and professional camera (which he is very happy to share with you)! Here is what we did on our Costa Rican Adventure. Day 1 - Hiking through Mistico Park where there are many hanging bridges. Then we went to La Fortuna Waterfall. After, we enjoyed a lunch at a local spot called La Tiqueria which was wonderful. Last we did a hike up the Arenal Volcano. Day 2 - Arenal White Water Rafting. I highly recommend doing this, even you are not athletic or a little scared. The rafting team are highly experienced and do a great job of accommodating for everyone's skill level and the experience they are looking for. Day 3 - PureTrek Waterfall Repelling. If you are afraid of heights this one might not be for you. This was a super thrilling and adrenaline pumping experience. Prepare to get wet! In the evening we did a night hike with Angelo which was phenomenal! We saw so many different animals, especially frogs as it was mating season. Day 4 - Cano Negro Wildlife Refuge. This is an authentic and unique experience as Angelo is the only one that does tours to this wildlife refuge. If you are booking through a different group they are likely not taking you to the actual wildlife refuge, but rather another area close to it. So beware of scammers, and just book through him. Day 5 - Monteverde. We did the café, cacao, and sugar can tour at Don Juan. This was a really cool experience, and not to mention yummy! We also went to the cloud forest which is very appropriately named. This was my other favorite thing that we did. The forest was very majestic and we saw a lot of wildlife. Moral of the story, book your Costa Rica vacation through Angelo at Costa Rica Nature Guide!!! You won't regret it ;) His English is great, he knows the area very well, he is well educated on all the different plants and animals, and is eager about making your experience the best it can be. We will definitely be back and booking through Angelo! :)

What a knowledgeable two guides. Very polite, very helpful. We saw howler monkeys, sloths, two kinds of toucans (keel billed and yellow eared) Yellow eared is extremely rare. We saw tannigers. Would highly recommend Brian and Angelo. Please check their tours out.
