        Do we get a free shuttle to the Sky Trek Canopy Tour (Ziplining), Sky Walk Hanging Bridges Tour, And Sky Tram Aerial Tram Ride – Adult (From La Fortuna / Operated by Sky Adventures) From the ARENAL SPRINGS RESORT?

        Also the will there be free transportation from the HOTEL & SPA POCO A POCO to the Sky Trek Canopy Tour (Ziplining) – Adult (From Monteverde / Operated by Sky Adventures)?

          Hey Stacey!

          Thanks so much for your interest in our discounts!

          To confirm, the Arenal Springs Resort is considered a “La Fortuna hotel” and Hotel Poco a Poco is considered a “Monteverde hotel” so for tour operators that include round-trip transportation in their costs, transportation to/from these two properties would be free. That being said, Sky Adventures is a tour operator that does not automatically include round-trip transportation to/from any hotels with any of their tours, so transportation to/from both of your hotels would cost extra if you opted to experience any of their activities. Sky Adventures charges $17+tax/person in La Fortuna/Arenal and $10+tax/person in Monteverde for the round-trip transfer service. (You’ll see the extra transportation charge noted as the “Transportation Option” on the tour’s listing page on our site.) If you’ll have a rental car and would prefer to drive yourselves to Sky Adventures’s Arenal Park and/or Monteverde Park (or, if you would prefer to take a taxi or arrange other transportation between the park and your hotels), you certainly can. Sky Adventures’s transportation fee is entirely optional. If you decide to drive, both parks have large parking lots and free parking.

          Pura vida! 🙂

            We are flying in on Tuesday, June 21st and will spend the night a hotel in San Jose. We would then like to go on a river rafting tour for a family of 4 on Wednesday, June 22nd. What hotel should we book in San Jose area to be picked up for the Exploradores Pacuare River Rafting Tour? In addition, we would like to be dropped off at Tabacon Hot Springs Resort once our tour is over. Is that possible?

            Thank you for your help

              Hi Nikki,
              Would Las Colinas (La Fortuna) be included in the free hotel transportation for the Paradise Springs Tour? Many thanks,
              Anna

                Hey Anna!

                Great news! Las Colinas (in downtown La Fortuna) qualifies. 🙂 Did you want us to have the tour operator provide transportation to/from Las Colinas with your existing order? Also to check, have you had a chance to review our email about the tax? We’re just waiting to hear back from you about that, but if something happens that you didn’t receive the email or you no longer have it (if your junk mail folder has already been cleared out), just let me know and I can re-send it.

                Until soon! 🙂

                  Yes please, provide transportation to and from the hot springs. I have looked for an additional email after receiving confirmation of our tour, and couldn’t find one. If you would be so kind as to resend I will respond as soon as I receive it.

                    Hello Anna!

                    Ok, no problem! I just re-sent the email. When you have a moment, would you mind letting me know if you received it? If not, I can try sending it from a different account to see if that helps.

                    Pura vida!

                      Is the Arenal Observatory Lodge included in free transportation to Pure Trek Canyoning tour and Sky Trek Zip Lining tour?

                        Hi Andrea!

                        Unfortunately, the Arenal Observatory Lodge isn’t considered a “La Fortuna hotel” by most tour operators, so tour operators will charge an extra fee to offer pick-ups/drop-offs at that property. If you’ll have a rental car, though, so you can save the cost of those fees by driving yourselves to/from Pure Trek’s office and Sky Adventures’s park. 🙂

                        Pura vida!
