Boana Travel

A Local, Personal Way to Discover La Fortuna

Boana Travel offers nature experiences in La Fortuna and Arenal from its local base in San Carlos. The approach combines more than five years of experience, professional guidance, clear information, and a more personal way to explore the destination.

Local Presence

Boana Travel operates from San Carlos, with experiences focused on the La Fortuna and Arenal area.

Professional Bilingual Guide

All four tours include the support of a professional bilingual guide.

More Than Five Years of Experience

Boana Travel has more than five years of experience creating private tours and small-group experiences in La Fortuna.

Discover What Often Goes Unnoticed

A walk can show you a landscape. A guided experience can help you understand what you're seeing, how the forest changes along the way, and the small details that are easy to miss when exploring without context. A guide's role is not to promise that a specific species will appear. It is to observe carefully, interpret signs in the environment, share information, and help you experience the tour with greater awareness. Instead of a large or overly rigid excursion, Boana Travel offers more personal attention, time to ask questions, and an experience connected to the real environment of La Fortuna.

Four Ways to Discover La Fortuna's Nature

Boana Travel focuses on four nature experiences. Each offers a different way to explore: hanging bridges, sloth watching, trails around Arenal Volcano, or nocturnal wildlife.

A Guide Changes the Way You Experience the Tour

In a tropical forest, many details blend into leaves, branches, shadows, and sounds. Professional guidance helps you look for signs and focus on elements that can easily go unnoticed, without turning wildlife into a commercial promise.

A More Personal Way to Share La Fortuna

At Boana Travel, we believe getting to know a destination means more than visiting its best-known places. It also means connecting with nature, understanding how the environment works, and taking home an experience with real context. Boana Travel has more than five years of experience creating private tours and small-group experiences in La Fortuna. Its local operation in San Carlos brings knowledge of the area, while the experiences themselves are focused on La Fortuna and Arenal. Rather than offering a huge catalog of unrelated activities, Boana Travel focuses on four nature tours: Mistico Hanging Bridges Park, a sloth tour, an Arenal Volcano tour, and a night wildlife tour. The goal is to provide professional, calm, and more personal attention.

What our happy clients say

Despite the horrible weather, we had the chance to see several sloths, among which a baby and one going down and up a tree. The guide was very friendly and knowledgeable! Note that you need to book your tour upfront...

Seb D

Awesome tour! Our guide Eric found so many sloths 🙂 really worth it.

Olivier Gauthier

What a nice tour close to the Arenal area but far from the mad crowds of La Fortuna! Their rain forest has everything: sloths, howler monkeys, birds and a great volcano view point too. Our guide Miller was super kind and very knowledgeable, and so was Francela at the reception. Highly recommended!

Filippo Vizzotto

It was honestly one the best experiences we had in Costa Rica! There were two guides and the group was divided in two, so only my friend and I went with the guide which made it possible to see so many things and ask so mny questions. Our guide Eric was truly knowledgable and we learned so much! We were able to see many frog and toad species, stick bugs, leaf bugs, many lizards and snakes, and even a wolly possum which was so adorable. Truly amazing totally recomend!

Sofia S

AMAZING!! I came solo and had an incredible time! I loved looking for all of the frogs and spiders and snakes! It was such a fun and exciting experience!

Hicimos el safari nocturno en el Arenal con Eric. Aún no terminamos nuestro viaje por Costa Rica, pero hasta ahora, ha sido nuestro tour favorito de todo el viaje. Eric es un guía fantástico: agradable, gracioso y sobre todo se ve que controla el ecosistema animal y vegetal. Nos respondió varias dudas que no habían sido resueltas por otros guías y nos dotó de información extra muy interesante durante todo el recorrido. A pesar de los días lluviosos que tuvimos, esa noche con el conocimiento de Eric pudimos ver serpientes, ranas, arañas y escorpiones. Eric en todo momento se mostró servicial y dispuesto a ayudar (hace unas fotos increíbles). Si puedes elegir tu guía, pregunta por Eric, que sin duda es el mejor.

Itzel Regalado

Wildlife, Great guides, 100% recommend This was a fantastic experience. On time hotel pickup, friendly and very funny guide Eddy, and we saw snakes; a variety of them, red eyed frogs, scorpions, spiders, freshwater crabs, stick bugs, butterflies and moths, fireflies; he told us to turn off all of our lights for a beautiful night view. We were given lamps, and he offered to take amazing photos for us and it was truly a great experience.. i had a 6 years old with me who was happy and taken care of! 100% would do it again.
