Rip off price
lorraine_l
, Nov. 2021
The ride was nice, great views, super nice guides, safety first, But price was a rip off, Twice the price of any other rides we had in Sarapiquí, was on the border of hanging bridges, so no real jungle experience, was listed as 2.5 hours but we were back in 1.5 hours, I thought the the exorbitant price was due to an entrance fee to hanging bridge park, but when I went to do a guided tour there was no discount, after a discussion with a lovely gentleman, the receptionist gave us a 20% discount, at least they acknowledged I took the horse ride

Guaranteeing safety conditions and comfort for all our visitors. We appreciate your visit because part of our income goes to some nonprofit organizations and also allows us to offer sources of employment for the inhabitants of La Fortuna. Best Regards.

Such a great experience!!! The tour guide was the best! He took photos and videos of everyone on the tour without us having to ask. I got soooo many great pics and vids. Great conversation. This experience was amazing from start to finish. My horse, abuela was great. She’s the boss of the other horses. 😂 I had such a great time! Thank you so much!!

Beautiful time with a hiccup
Robert_B
, Jul. 2021
The guides and horseback riding were fantastic! We had an awesome time. I felt the wording was not clear in the description as we believed the tickets also included park entrance to the hanging bridges which it did not. The wording said “front entrance admission”. There is not a fee to anyone for that part so…another $27pp for the bridges. Please know though, the horseback riding part was wonderful…gorgeous views.

MUST DO in La Fortuna!

Incredible guides and such a wonderful way to see the volcano! Includes entrance to the hanging bridges park, so you can take that walk on your own, making the entire day a complete steal! Best thing we did in La Fortuna.

Thank you so much for your visit, Lyssa!. The Hanging Bridges Tour is a perfect opportunity to experience the adventure of walking above the trees and discover the behaviour of a lush rainforest. The main trail is 3.2 km and passes through 6 Hanging Bridges. We also have two short cuts available for people looking not to walk so much, including an accessible trail. We hope to see you back again soon. Thanks again for your recommendation!.

The horseback riding was amazing, beautiful scenery! The guides were nice. We did have to ask for what was advertised as included in the tour (e.g. seeing one of the hanging bridges and water). Would have been better not to have to ask!
