Buena Vista Combo Tour

The Buena Vista Canopy and Natural Spa tour is a great adventure and relaxation day rolled into one. We'll pick you up from your hotel or rental home after breakfast and drive you to the Rincon de la Vieja area.

A short hike takes you to the canopy zip line on tree platforms. There are nine zip cables ranging from 150 to 400 feet long, allowing you to view the dry forest differently.

Then you'll mount well-fed, well-behaved horses and ride to the natural spa to enjoy the rejuvenating thermal hot springs and steam mud baths heated up courtesy of the active Rincon de la Vieja Volcano. These hot springs and mud baths are known for their natural healing properties. So go ahead and lather yourself in the volcanic mud and take a dip in the thermal mineral waters. And after that, it's adventure time again with some fun on a 1,500-foot water slide!

Throughout the day, you'll spot monkeys, squirrels, butterflies, and birds like woodpeckers and toucans. Your local bilingual guide will show you the transition between tropical dry forest and rainforest and point out the various species of flora and fauna in the park.

The Buena Vista Combo is great for adults and families alike – or anyone looking for an adventure!

Guachipelin Combo Tour

The Guachipelin Combo tour also takes place in the Rincon de la Vieja National Park and includes the same activities as the Buena Vista Combo. The premise is the same - we'll pick you up in the morning and drive you to the park to begin your day of adventure.

This one is a little more adventurous and physically demanding, given that the Guachipelin Combo includes climbing and waterfall rappelling alongside the zip lining, horseback riding, mud baths, and thermal hot springs. One other difference is that the Guachipelin Combo doesn't include the water slide at the end.

Diamante Eco Adventure Park

The Diamante Eco Adventure Park is the newest combo tour in Guanacaste, located close to the coast, near the Riu resorts in Playa Matapalo. It offers a great adventure day out with minimal travel time to and from your hotel or rental on the beach.

A day at the Diamante Eco Adventure Park includes access to zip-lining, various beach water sports (kayaking, snorkeling, stand-up paddleboarding), horseback riding, and ATVs. There's also a wildlife sanctuary and cultural and botanical tours to learn about Costa Rican history, tradition, and nature.

The park offers a variety of day passes where you can mix and match the activities you want to enjoy. You'll also find three restaurants inside the park.

The zip line tour at the park has five cables and one 30-feet free-fall platform. It’s a 4,461-feet-long trip with ocean views to enjoy.

Other activities to enjoy are horseback riding and ATV riding. Rent one or the other and follow the trails through the hills with your guide to experience the area differently.

Nature lovers will enjoy the animal sanctuary at the park. It’s one of the largest rescue centers in Guanacaste, protecting several species recovered from various challenging situations. There are jaguars, sloths, ocelots, toucans, and other birds—also monkeys, reptiles, frogs, a butterfly garden, and more.

Get up and close with these creatures and learn about their habits and characteristics. The enclosures are designed to imitate the natural environment of each species as much as possible, and there are over a dozen licensed biologists ready to answer any questions.

If you want to see a specific animal being fed (like the sloths), it’s best if you head to the sanctuary first before doing anything else. Ask about feeding times to make sure you are in the right place at the right moment, as they may change throughout the month.

Diamante has dedicated a significant portion of its property to preserving native forests and vegetation species. The cultural experience at their Traditional House is getting close to Costa Rican cultural and natural history.

Walk around the botanical and medicinal gardens, and learn from enthusiastic connoisseurs about coffee brewing techniques, sugar cane extraction processes, and meal prepping. You even get to try out some of these centuries-old practices for yourself!

Playa Matapalo is a great place to relax and try some activities. Kayaks, stand-up paddles, and snorkeling gear are all available. So spend the rest of the day lounging in the sand and enjoying the beach.
