About this experience
What this tour opens up in Arenal.
Rio Celeste is one of Costa Rica's most memorable full-day nature trips from La Fortuna. The draw is simple and powerful: a rainforest hike, volcanic minerals coloring the river, and the bright blue waterfall inside Tenorio Volcano National Park.
This tour is best for travelers who want a scenic hiking day beyond the immediate Arenal area. Fortuna Experts helps coordinate pickup, timing, guide context, lunch options, and the details that make the longer route feel smooth.
