RAIN FOREST ARENAL VOLCANO FULL DAY TOUR & COMBINATIONS

In the Central Volcanic Mountain Range of Costa Rica, the Arenal Volcano is one of the country’s most famous volcanoes. Arenal is considered to be the youngest volcano in Costa Rica; its age is estimated to be less than 7,500 years.

For centuries, the Arenal Volcano was a nearly perfect cone-shaped, rainforest blanketed volcanic mountain considered by many to be extinct. However, at roughly 7:30 a.m. on Monday, July 29, 1968, the dormant Arenal Volcano suddenly and violently erupted with a tremendous explosion. Extreme eruptions continued unabated for several days, burying over 15 square kilometers with rocks, lava and ash. When it was finally over, the eruptions had killed 87 people and destroyed three small villages  Tabacón, Pueblo Nuevo and San Luís  affecting more than 232 square kilometers of land.
