Starting very early in the morning for Baldi Hot Springs. Making a stop in Sarchi and then heading to lunch. After that arriving in Baldi for a nice afternoon in the hot springs of Arenal Volcano. In the early evening a nice buffet dinner. Excellent facilities in the resort. Definitely, I'll come back!!

The Baldi Hot Springs was fantastic. There were 25 different pools to pick from, some relaxed and secluded, others decorated with waterfalls and rock features. It was a variety that everyone could find something they liked - as long as they liked hot tubs. On our way to the springs we stopped to see some attractions which was nice to get some history of Costa Rica. I would certainly consider this excursion again.

Nos encantó la experiencia. Fuimos con Daniel fue un tour privado completamente ya que solo íbamos nosotros dos con nuestro guía Daniel quien siempre nos tuvo paciencia de espera y muy a gusto todo. Lo único que sugeriría sería realizar una actividad extra en el tour pero de ahí en fuera súper bien. La comida deliciosa, los lugares visitados muy lindos.

This was an amazing trip. Guide Edgardo was knowledgeable and gracious. We learned a lot about the geography and history of the area. The Baldi Hot Springs were relaxing and very clean. The lunch and dinner were fabulous with a view of the Arenal volcano.

Wonderful experience. I would recommend this trip to anyone regardless of group size. The food was amazing, more importantly, the tour guide - WILL - was knowledgeable and patient with me and my family. The hot spring resort was unforgettable. This tour is a must when traveling on Costa Rica.

We passed through San Jose on both ends of our trip to Costa Rica. I picked this day tour as a way of getting to see more of the country and was not disappointed. Be prepared for a long day. With traffic and a backup due to an accident, it was 14 hours for us. Hotel pickup and drop-off were convenient. The bilingual tour guide was excellent. if you are full of questions as I am, sit close to the guide so you can get your questions answered enroute. I could not get connected to the bus offered wifi though, The first stop at the tourist souvenir shop was what you might expect. I'd pass on it if I could. The countryside was fascinating as we drove up over the mountains and saw rural homes, farms and ranches. Lots of nursery plants farmed. Lunch was efficient with our meal choices phoned in ahead. I'd not have the club sandwich again (fried egg, cucumber, and canned ham). 20 minutes to the volcano; a mile high cinder cone. Then a half hour to Baldi hot springs; a first class resort and water park. Then a long after-dark bus ride back to our hotels. It's a long day, but wonderful to see the CR countryside.
