What you'll see and do
Arenal Hanging Bridges
The Arenal Hanging Bridges (Parque Místico) are a series of hanging bridges in the Arenal Volcano National Park area, offering views of Lake Arenal and the Arenal Volcano. The bridges are part of a 2-mile (3-kilometer) self-guided interpretive trail through a private rainforest reserve. Discovering the wonderful secrets of this forest is to find a wildlife sanctuary, the density of biodiversity makes our trails a special place to admire the species that you find along the way. It is important that when doing the self-guided tour you pay special attention to the different sectors of the forest, from the treetops, the intermediate space and the forest floor; this way you will have the opportunity to appreciate even more species.

La Fortuna Waterfall
Aquellos que hayan traído trajes de baño y un gran sentido de la aventura pueden nadar en el agua helada debajo de la cascada. Otros pueden disfrutar de un picnic a lo largo de la costa rocosa o de una ronda de fotografías de la naturaleza; de hecho, es difícil tomar una mala foto en un lugar tan hermoso como este. El sendero atraviesa pastizales y selva tropical, lo que ofrece oportunidades para observar tucanes, monos y otras criaturas tropicales. Se tarda unos 15 minutos en bajar las escaleras hasta la cascada

Great Customer Service!
We purchased this admission tickets package so we could go to these 3 places in La Fortuna and venture on our own. I needed to call this company TicoParadise several times to get clarification on some information and also to see if we could move the La Fortuna waterfall admission ticket to the next day since we spent a lot of time at the other 2 places and they were very helpful in this regard. The customer service was fantastic to us and we will consider booking anything with them again if we are back in Costa Rica. - Nolan

Arenal City Pass® Volcano, Waterfall, Bridges (SelfGuide): questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for La Fortuna.
How much does Arenal City Pass® Volcano, Waterfall, Bridges (SelfGuide) cost?
+
Prices start at $110 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in La Fortuna usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Arenal City Pass® Volcano, Waterfall, Bridges (SelfGuide) take?
+
Plan for about 5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in La Fortuna is not rushed.
Is Arenal City Pass® Volcano, Waterfall, Bridges (SelfGuide) worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 58 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 1 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in La Fortuna, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Arenal City Pass® Volcano, Waterfall, Bridges (SelfGuide)?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Arenal City Pass® Volcano, Waterfall, Bridges (SelfGuide) suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Arenal City Pass® Volcano, Waterfall, Bridges (SelfGuide)?
+
Around 0 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in La Fortuna can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in La Fortuna and add a light layer if any part of the 5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Arenal City Pass® Volcano, Waterfall, Bridges (SelfGuide) start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central La Fortuna within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in La Fortuna?
+
On Outty we rank every La Fortuna experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Upper Balsa River White Water Rafting Class 3/4 in Costa Rica, White Water Rafting Class II and III, Authentic Coffee and Chocolate Tour at North Fields. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit La Fortuna?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in La Fortuna?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in Arenal City Pass® Volcano, Waterfall, Bridges (SelfGuide)?
+
Included: Admission Tickets Fee & Taxes. Not included: Private transportation; In-vehicle air conditioning; and Guide. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Where is the meeting point for Arenal City Pass® Volcano, Waterfall, Bridges (SelfGuide)?
+
The experience starts at Arenal Hanging Bridges, 21007, Costa Rica. Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.
What languages is Arenal City Pass® Volcano, Waterfall, Bridges (SelfGuide) offered in?
+
It is offered in English and Spanish. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.
Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Arenal City Pass® Volcano, Waterfall, Bridges (SelfGuide)?
