Heading to La Fortuna, Costa Rica with kids? There is so much to do and see in La Fortuna, Costa Rica, and it really is a super family-friendly destination. This La Fortuna travel guide will help families choose which activities to do, such as going zip lining, hiking to see La Fortuna waterfall, seeing Arenal volcano, and going on a guided sloth tour. We really loved Arenal, Costa Rica with kids, and would highly recommend adding it to your list of places to visit as a family.

About This Video

La Fortuna, Costa Rica has been a total bucket-list spot for me, and in this video I’m sharing exactly what our family of six did there—plus how we got there, where we stayed, and what I think is actually worth it with kids. We flew into San Jose, then hired a private shuttle for the roughly two-hour drive to La Fortuna. Between customs, a slower drive, and stopping for dinner, we didn’t get to our hotel until after 7 pm—so if you’re traveling with little kids, plan for a long first day. We stayed at Hotel Arenal Manoa and it ended up being such a perfect family setup because we had two connecting rooms that felt like our own little building. We also found out breakfast was free, which was a huge win, and we loved hanging out on the patio watching hummingbirds (even though the volcano was totally hidden in the fog that morning). For activities, we did zip lining (my older kids went with my husband while I stayed back with the younger kids during nap time), and we did a guided sloth tour in the rainforest—lots of walking, mosquito bites, and we got caught in a rainstorm, but seeing a mama sloth carrying her baby was absolutely insane and 100% worth it.
