It was a fun ride!
jaxs2013, September 2026
A wonderful ATV tour in La Fortuna and one I would highly recommend. Our guide was friendly, knowledgeable and great fun, and made the experience feel relaxed from start to finish.
The ATV ride was followed by a short hike up towards the volcano and the volcanic boulders, with beautiful scenery along the way. Our guide was patient whenever we stopped to enjoy the views and made the whole experience even more memorable.

Do yourself a favor and do this!
Mili_P, September 2026
Wonderful experience through and through! The staff was very knowledgeable and have great customer care. They took us through so many trails not accessible on foot and truly made the experience very memorable. Definitely recommend paying the extra to extend the tour. The added trail, going near the volcano and even crossing fast flowing rivers was so worth it. Would 100% recommend and do this again.
