What people say

CeLynn Siemons
"Only 30 minutes from Poás Volcano, this is a must-see if you want to get familiar with native Costa Rican wildlife! The exhibits include tropical birds, butterflies, monkeys, snakes, frogs, big cats, and more! We didn't expect to stay and have lunch at their buffet but we are glad we did. There was a huge variety of delicious food, both American-style and Costa Rican cuisine. Be sure to stay on top of shuttle hours if you walk the paths to see the waterfalls. The path does not end at the original lot and you must board a shuttle to return to the main visitor center. "

"Wake up early and start your day off making a stop at La Paz Waterfall Gardens. To visit here, I recommend booking your tickets in advance on their website. There are 4 stunning waterfalls that you hike to through the epic rainforest. You can get up close and personal with them, or watch them flow from viewing platforms. There’s also a whole zoo that you will get access to where you can see Costa Rica’s diverse wildlife up close! After this stop, make your way into the town of La Fortuna where you will be spending the night. "
"La Paz Waterfall Gardens Nature Park is 1 hour from San Jose and offer rainforest, trails, waterfalls and animal sanctuary. Park tickets have an option to include a buffet lunch. Open to the public, is also part of the Peace Lodge. "
