Wet and wonderful!

Published on Jan, 2025

Wet and wonderful! Just did the safari float down a river and our guide pointed out lots of wildlife, including crocodiles, a caiman and many birds. Very safe and only your feet get wet. Wish id brought my camera. The corn tortillas snack and lecture on chocolate after were an added unexpected bonus. But pick up and drop off take up to an hour.

Do the coffee tour and La Fortuna waterfall combo! Well worth it!

Published on Jan, 2025

My large family (9 people, 5 boys aged 14-24, and my 85 year old mom) went to the coffee tour and La Fortuna waterfall. We were mostly interested in the waterfall, but chose the combo with the coffee plantation so that my mom would be able to participate in half of the tour. My expectations were low for the coffee but it was one of the best surprised of our whole trip. Our guide Sergio was fantastic. This tour option is about a lot more than just coffee. Sergio taught us about the growing of all kinds of tropical produce including vanilla, peppercorn, and of course cocoa. He led us in our own coffee brewing and chocolate making at the end. It was a great experience. The La Fortuna waterfall was simply spectacular. I can't imagine visiting La Fortuna area without seeing it. Our driver walked us down the 514 steps to the base of the falls where most of my family went swimming. Needless to say, my 85 year old mom did not make this part of the trip. There is a restaurant at the trailhead where she was well cared for by the wait staff. I'm 52 and it was definitely a lot of work climbing back out - but well worth it. Lunch at the end was very satisfying - quality was great and portions were generous.

Great day at Hanging Bridges and La Fortuna Waterfall (family of 5; kids 14, 12, 8)

Published on Nov, 2024

Great experience with Canoa! Our guide Jason was amazing for both Hanging Bridges and La Fortuna Waterfall. We highly recommend it!

Excellent tour operator and tons of wildlife!

Published on Aug, 2024

The communication with Canoa was fantastic! They sent a reminder/confirmation email and let us know where to meet and what to wear. The safari float was so fun and peaceful, and even when it rained crocodiles and turtles. We saw iguanas, Jesus Christ lizards, howler monkeys. a turtle, and multiple crocodiles! Our guide was full of interesting facts about La Fortuna! The snack was well done, and I loved the fried plantains and tortillas. The chocolate demonstration was fun. We also appreciated our guide taking us to La Fortuna Waterfall, telling us about it, and taking pictures of us. The service was amazing! Lunch was also excellent. Our kids loved the pasta bolognese, and the pizzas looked delicious! Thank you for a great day!

Fun Trip 2024

Chino was an excellent guide. We walked through the rainforest stopping to see different birds, insects, and animals. The bridges were thrilling. The La Fortuna waterfall was breathtaking! And the lunch from the local restaurant was a delicious treat.
