What do you guys think of La Fortuna? It sure is different from Quepos! This is the first episode, and probably the least exciting of the 3! Give me a 🌊🌋 if you are READY for the next two episodes!!!

Hi Emma I enjoyed your walking tour of La Fortuna . I visited La Fortuna many years ago on a day trip to the Tabercon Hotel and Hot Springs. The day we went it wasn`t raining but the top of the volcano is almost always clouded over. Very rarely is the top of the Arenal Volcano visible . Looking forward to your next Fortuna videos and all the best to you and your mom , Cheers from Lindsay xxx 🍺🍻🍺🧡

[@EmmainCostaRica]

@@lindsayrollin4291 Hi! Glad you enjoyed! I agree that the volcano was very difficult to see, we did not see it completely, it actually rained for 3 of the 4 days we were there haha! We actually did go to Tabacón, as you will soon see in the upcoming videos!!! Stay well, and as always thanks for your support!

[@lindsayrollin4291]

@@EmmainCostaRica Hi Emma how`s it going ? You haven`t posted any new videos lately ? I hope you will post a new one son. I hope you and your Mom are doing ok ? xxx 😍😘🥰

I love La Fortuna! I was so sad to see Luigi’s Pizza appears closed in your video. The pizza was amazing. Another can’t miss place down a side street near taxi row and the church is Rainforest Cafe! They have the best coffee drinks I have ever tasted! Their food is amazing too and service incredibly friendly! Loved your video. So well done! Brought me back to one of my fave towns in Costa Rica.

[@EmmainCostaRica]

@@Huskyluvingal7 Hey there! Glad you found my video! It truly is sad to see the effects of COVID, right! The Rainforest Cafe sounds amazing, I wish I had seen it! Thank you very much for your kind comments, and for watching!

[@fernandobreneszamora222]

Hola emma,Saludos,la fortuna tiene lugares hermosos.

[@tonyfuturepolyglot]

Love these complete guided walking tour videos! It kind of feels like I'm walking with you and your mom haha! I'm studying Spanish too so I also love the Spanish subtitles you add to your videos. Can't wait for the other videos part of the La Fortuna series Emma!

[@EmmainCostaRica]

I am so glad you are liking them!! And glad to hear that it feels like you are with us,, makes it more fun considering how long the videos are, hehe! Happy to hear that my subtitling is a big help to you, and others! It takes a lot of time and work to do it, so I guess it is really worth doing! Looking forward to showing you the next parts!! As always, thanks for your support Anthony!

[@emmanuelcespedes7051]

I could go 1000 times to la Fortuna! Just to sit down at the park in front of the volcano is awesome

[@gerardomontero7385]

¡Lindo tour!, gracias

[@EmmainCostaRica]

Gracias a ti!

[@puppytail3493]

Mama! Please feed Emma! She seems to be giving hints that she is hungry! LOL! Love your original idea of walking through towns and giving us a tour. You nailed it! As far as I have researched, no one else has done it before in this area, so please do it in every town and village in Costa Rica. Pura Vida! Thank you!

[@EmmainCostaRica]

Hahaha, I definitely had food on the mind that day! I am so glad you appreciate my work, and yes! I actually started doing these walking tours specifically because I couldn't find any videos like this, with proper narrative and a walking-with-me feel! I am slowly marking towns off the list as I go! Thanks so much!

[@nestorsaulgomex7633]

Emma me gusta tus video siempre me sorprendes con algo nuevo felicidades

[@EmmainCostaRica]

Gracias por su apoyo, como siempre!

[@guillermomasis2788]

I have seen many of your videos and I dont know why but I really feel happy when I watch them ... I have really good vibes from you and your mom ... Love it , I would like to meet you someday ... I like the video and you both are extremely cute .. Thanks for the video...

[@EmmainCostaRica]

Thank you so much for watching, I am very glad that my videos make you feel good 😃

[@lindsayrollin4291]

Hi Emma did you see my comment on your tour of La Fortuna ? I was there years ago and loved it. We went to the Tabercon Hot Springs. I highly recommend you go there too and film a video there , All the best to you and your mom xxx 😘

[@ronaldchaves1584]

Emma ...Thank you again for the fortuna tour !! I never been there ....looks nice . Hoping next trip to CR can visit !! ...show also Monteverde ...lol ( pura vida)

[@EmmainCostaRica]

I am glad you liked it! It was such a nice area, and a wonderful change in climate from Quepos! I want to go back already! I also want to go to Monteverde... hahah! Lets see if I can get there this year 😊

[@wilroscampos6853]

I like Keller beer, it is cheap, strong and dense. Greetings from Heredia.

[@EmmainCostaRica]

haha! I tried it once or twice, I think the flavour is a bit bitter for me, but maybe I will have to give it another chance, the price is too good 😝

[@henryvalladares145]

Looks like a beautiful place La Fortuna. Lots of good stuff to do and see there. I heard the rent is really cheap there like $150 per month for a small house.

[@EmmainCostaRica]

It was very pretty, and so much to do, even I have to go back to feel like I have done it all haha! Because of this comment I actually looked into some of the rentals, it seems pretty fair priced, as usual depends on standard, but the properties seem larger than what you would get down here in Quepos! It would be a lovely place to live in my opinion

[@janehawkes6021]

Hi Emma. Jeff and I would like to see a tour of the hotel.

[@EmmainCostaRica]

Stay tuned for the upcoming videos, I have a feeling you guys will love it! Thanks for watching!

[@virastoiatska255]

Hi, Emma! Thank you for these videos! I'm in the middle of planning my visit to Costa Rica and these tours are very helpful! Could I ask you which transport you used during your travel between different regions? Shuttlebus? Regular buses? Thank you!

[@EmmainCostaRica]

Hey there, thanks for watching! I’m glad you find the videos helpful! Generally in regards to transport we either use our own car, or contact a taxi/private driver - if you need help with this, let me know! You can message me via Instagram or Facebook (links found in description)

[@virastoiatska255]

​@@EmmainCostaRica Thank you so much!!! Right now I try to create my route (I'll have only 2 weeks:((( and I'll contact you if I'll need help. But real video like you create - is VERY helpful - just true real life, nothing like advertising video:))) Thanks!

[@Lobo243]

Hi ..For how long you been living in Costa Rica 🇨🇷

[@EmmainCostaRica]

Almost 4 years! Thank you for watching!

[@chelseafredericks8341]

Hey Emma!! Where is that sign that's on your thumbnail? I tried Googling it to find it and can't even pull up a photo!

[@EmmainCostaRica]

Haha! It’s actually right outside of the entrance to the La Fortuna waterfall

se perdió lo mejor... el lago de arenal, el volcán arenal, lago cote, rio celeste, tillaran

Este video solo fue un recorrido del pueblo, esos lugares merecen un video completo cada uno! :) Gracias por ver

[@jeannettemoragarcia5682]

Hola. Muy lindos los vídeos. Aclarar que el precio a la entrada de Manuel Antonio la siento baja; en vista que Costa Rica ha sacrificado la exploración en otras actividades para poder conservar la naturaleza en su estado original. El país ha gastado mucho dinero y los costarricenses mucho sacrificio para que los turistas disfruten y se diviertan por todo eso pienso que la entrada al parque les parece cara pero es xq la comparan con el costo del nacional. La verdad es que al tico no le deberían cobrar por todo el trabajo que han realizado nuestros antepasados y a los extranjeros deberían cobrarles lo justo. Y lo justo para pagar una obra de arte. Creen que porque es naturaleza no nos cuesta nada. Pero si nos ha costado muchísimo. Gracias disfruten el país.

[@EmmainCostaRica]

Hola muchísimas gracias por su comentario y por ver mis videos :D

[@Where2nextWade]

You are a tourist. You will always be a tourist no matter if you get residency. You will still always be a tourist.

[@EmmainCostaRica]

I am a tourist anywhere I go, and the same goes for everyone. A tourist is a person who travels for pleasure, even people travelling their home countries are tourists. Not quite sure what you're trying to get at, anyway, thanks for watching!
