Fantastic day with a fantastic tour

Our day was great, picked up from our hotel via a shuttle. When we arrived we met our tour guide who was very polite and got to know us all straight away. We had a group of 5 on our tour so perfect size as not to many to not be able to ask questions etc. The reserve is clean and so well preserved. Everywhere we went we saw people maintaining the paths yet leaving anything outside to it’s natural way. Our guide showed us so much wildlife and explained everything to us in such a great detail. I would highly advise going here and especially make sure you have a guide. We saw a lot of people walking past and missing such amazing views. I am not one for heights yet this was an experience that is worth doing regardless. Nothing made me feel unsure or unsafe. 5*

    We chose to not have a guide which worked nicely because we could take our time around the bridges and have a more secluded private experience. It did however make seeing wildlife challenging, but we still saw howler monkeys, frogs and birds. The bridges are suspended at different heights which means you get to experience each level of the canopy alongside fantastic views of Arenal Volcano (on a good day). It’s important to note that unlike other parks you are only allowed to walk around once, which means that you may not get a view of the volcano on the first bridge. We used the shuttle service provided by the hanging bridge park costing $20 each for return tickets - we thought this was quite expensive given the journey time and multiple stops at hotels, if we went again we’d definitely use an Uber (readily available in La Fortuna), for a quicker and cheaper experience.
