Canopy + Coffee, Chocolate & Sugar Cane

Cables in the morning, the story of three Costa Rican crops after

About 4 hours Max 14 Moderate English, Spanish Age 7+

Overview

The adventure half is the waterfall canopy circuit. The cultural half walks you through how coffee, cacao and sugar cane are actually grown and processed on the reserve's own plots - you pick beans, roast them, crack cacao pods and grind the nibs into chocolate, and press cane through a wooden trapiche to drink the juice. It is hands-on rather than a demonstration you watch, and the guides who run it grew up on farms in the area. Tasting is generous: coffee, hot chocolate, raw cacao and cane juice.

What travelers say about Arenal Mundo Aventura

Zip lines are incredibly fun
Tomas Novotny · via Google
Had a great time, never been on a horse before but Danny showed us how to handle everything and we had a nice ride up to the trailhead and back. The trail itself is about 500 steps, fairly steep but well maintained and easy enough. Down at the bottom you’ve got to cross a narrow river that’s about three feet deep, and climb over some rocks to get up close to the waterfall, all of which was a lot of fun. Good idea to bring water shoes in addition to your regular shoes, plus a towel if you can pack it.

We booked a 12 zip line tour with Arenal Mundo Adventura April 7, 2026, complete with round trip transportation for 10 people picked up at our resort. From Lester, our driver, to Allen, Jefferson, and others I apologize for not noting more names, we could not be more pleased and grateful for the exceptional experience. The guides would zip in tandem with the first timers scared but anxious to see how awesome zip lining can be. These guys are top notch, you can’t go wrong with them. Pura Vida!

This was our first zipline experience. The guides were professional and fantastic! We felt safe the entire time and had a great time. The view of the waterfall was lovely.

All the instructors were super friendly and very knowledgeable

AMA tour group was great! We did the 7 line cable but there’s a 12 cable option. Probably would do the 12 line next time because it was fun even though it rained. Ask the tour guide to let you know which cables go by the waterfalls or you will miss it if it’s raining because the rain had us closing our eyes. Wear hiking pants & bug spray for comfort & closed toed shoes

Super fun and very safe!!! We were able to see a toucan flying and some monkeys too after our excellent guides pointed them out.
