Outdoor Nature Theme Park
The horse backriding, tubing and ziplining folks were so professional, safe, kind, and patient! All 3 adventures were so fun! The ziplining was a thrill beyond words! The jungle was breathtaking and the water so refreshing! The horses and cowboys were fantastic! The whole tour was a bucket list want and now we can take it off the list! The coffee and chocolate tasting were a nice way to end a fun adventurous day! Pura Vida!

Action Packed Fun
Great trip, action-packed and full of adventure from start to finish! Our tour guide was incredibly attentive throughout the day. Between the ziplining, tubing, and hot springs, there was something for everyone — but river tubing was hands down my favorite activity. Highly recommend this tour if you want a full day of adventure.

Epic Adventure!
This day trip was epic! Alberto was so energetic and took photos of us as we rode horses, went white water rafting, ziplined, and had a volcanic spa day! We stopped for a little breakfast on the way, were happy with the buffet, and they made sure we were safe and hydrated. A must-do! Pura Vida!

Adventure in Costa Rica
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ An Amazing Adventure from Start to Finish! We had such an incredible day! Kevin was our guide and he was absolutely amazing. We started the adventure with horseback riding, followed by river tubing, zip lining, and finished with the hot springs. It was the perfect combination of adventure, fun, and relaxation! The entire tour was very well organized, and the guides were incredibly helpful, attentive, and made sure everyone felt comfortable and safe throughout the day. It was also very family-friendly, which made the experience even better. We had such a great time and created some wonderful memories. I would highly recommend booking this adventure if you’re visiting Costa Rica! 🇨🇷🐎🌊🪂♨️ Thank you, Kevin, and the entire team for an unforgettable day!

Guachipelin Volcano Combo: Zipline, River Tubing & Hot Springs: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Liberia.
How much does Guachipelin Volcano Combo: Zipline, River Tubing & Hot Springs cost?
+
Prices start at $145 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Liberia usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Guachipelin Volcano Combo: Zipline, River Tubing & Hot Springs take?
+
Plan for about 8 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 Liberia is not rushed.
Is Guachipelin Volcano Combo: Zipline, River Tubing & Hot Springs worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 90 out of 100, which we label "90+ Club". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.8/5 across 1,569 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most popular in Liberia, and how flexible the cancellation terms are. Scoring 90 or above puts it in the Outty 90+ Club, the top tier of everything we rank.
Can I cancel or reschedule Guachipelin Volcano Combo: Zipline, River Tubing & Hot Springs?
+
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 Guachipelin Volcano Combo: Zipline, River Tubing & Hot Springs suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Guachipelin Volcano Combo: Zipline, River Tubing & Hot Springs?
+
Around 549 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 Liberia 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 Liberia and add a light layer if any part of the 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Guachipelin Volcano Combo: Zipline, River Tubing & Hot Springs 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 Liberia 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 Liberia?
+
On Outty we rank every Liberia experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Frogs-Sloths-waterfall-Coffee and Chocolate Tour, Costa Rica Guanacaste Airport ( LIR )Private Arrival Transfer, Whitewater Rafting Class III and IV. 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 Liberia?
+
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 Liberia?
+
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.

+

+
