Day 3 - Transfer to Monteverde
Advised activities Arenal/Monteverde and transfer

Today we are going to move from Arenal to Monteverde. It is the only activity that I have proposed this day. However, depending on your energy you can do one additional activity before moving to Monteverde in Arenal early in the morning. Or visit one of the adventure parks (Extremo Park or SkyAdventures) proposed on the next day upon arrival to Monteverde in the afternoon.

The important thing is that you make the transfer from Arenal to Monteverde with daylight for safety. Plan your times and activities in advance.

Transfer to Monteverde from Arenal

I recommend making the transfer in the morning after breakfast. The transfer to Monteverde is 109 kilometers that are covered in approximately 2.5 hours of walking. The reason the journey takes so long is because the road has many curves, it is not in very good condition and there are parts of dirt. Keep your eyes open on the road as you might see an exotic animal on the road.

Summary

This is an amazing trip specially designed for nature and adventure lovers. Costa Rica is one of the countries in the world with the most impressive and marvelous diversity of flora and fauna.

In 6 magnificent days you will explore with your own 4x4 car some of the most beautiful natural wonders of Costa Rica. The trip starts in San Jose International Airport (SJO) where you will start your drive directly to Arenal where you will see its Volcano.

In Arenal there are many activities that you can do where you can enjoy of nature, relax and also do some activities full of adrenaline. If you read the description of the itinerary, I have planned you will see what, when, and how to do the best activities in Arenal and it surroundings. Some of the options I have planned for you include hikes, zip lines, waterfalls, springs and thermal water piscine.

Also, for those who book this itinerary I will share some information that will help you enjoy more your trip.

After having a good time in Arenal we will move to the cloud forest of Costa Rica in Monteverde. This place is one of my favorite places because the forest and the nature is so intense that really makes me wonder. There is one mythical bird that is unique in the world and that, if we are lucky, we will be able to see. Birdwatchers will find in Monteverde its Nirvana.

Finally, I will suggest you doing a super adrenalinic activity in one of the most amazing adventure parks I have visited in all the world. Activities such as flying in zip-lines as superman and doing the bungee jump is the normality here.  

The lodgement I suggest is the best in each destination to give you the necessary comfort to enjoy of this adventure and, not only have a good rest, but to also help you experience the destination itself.
