Can I do a day trip to Monteverde or Arenal from Guancaste?
Yes, there are companies that will sell this to you and we can provide it if you insist. However, you should consider that it takes 8 hours of round trip driving (4 hours in each direction) to visit either of these areas. Yes, you will undoubtedly see this advertised on the beach resort and tour operator websites, but they are counting on you not realizing what you are getting yourself into.
If you want to visit Arenal or Monteverde from Guanacaste, you should stay at least one night. Two to three nights would be much more rewarding. Take advantage of our expertise and local knowledge to avoid mistakes like this.
