Tour Options
Itinerary
On the way to the waterfalls we have the chance to discover the real Mexico, passing by different small towns and communities where the tour guide will explain to the group how local people live. We make a little stop in one of those villages for a restroom break, to enjoy a cup of the really good coffee or chocolate that they produce by the mountains and learn about traditional medicine through plants and herbs that grow in the forest.
Once we get the waterfalls, we will admire their crystal clear waters that come down from the mountains. We will have the time to enjoy this natural beauty and relax ourselves swimming into the fresh water and natural Jacuzzis as well as explore the surrounding natural caves.
We finish our adventure with a traditional Oaxacan meal in a typical restaurant in the surrounding area and we ride back to your accomodation.

Me and my husband had a phenomenal experience! The drive from our resort was relaxing, the short walk to the falls was absolutely beautiful, and lunch was so delicious my husband ate more food than he probably should have and we were both ready for a siesta when we got back to our hotel. Our tour guide, Saul, was very knowledgeable and easygoing, and facilitated a wonderful day for us that we won’t soon forget : ) If you are so inclined, you can complete this tour in sandals, but wearing water shoes - especially in the pools as they are slick with algae, is probably to your advantage. Make sure you bring some water with you to drink, and definitely check out the pool behind the waterfall!
Our guide, Eduardo was beyond excellent. Extremely knowledgeable about history, flora and fauna of the area.
Great excursion with our experienced guide Eduardo who made sure we learned about the plants, birds and history of the area, excellent lunch included and swimming in the waterfall was amazing
Our travel guide was Eduardo Bolaños and he was a perfect host. He showed up at our hotel about 5 minutes prior to our pickup time. A large air conditioned van, clean inside and out, with cold drinks available. We received a narrative along the way about the local area and its history. Just as promised, we stopped for a bathroom break, coffee, hot chocolate, and an education on medicines using local plants. Onward to the waterfalls, and WOW, we were not disappointed. Eduardo lead us along the path to an extraordinary site. The pictures on the Viator website do not do it justice. He gave us a quick safety briefing, and then lead a few of us under and behind the falls into a cave/grotto where we experienced the thundering water within a few feet of us. AMAZING! This was followed by a swim in the crystal clear waters, before enjoying a genuine, traditional Mexican meal at a restaurant within a few metres of the river. On top of all this, we were surrounded by the lush tropical beauty of Oaxaca. The only regret was not bringing more cash with us to buy coffee and other treats to take home. BTW, they do accept credit cards. Don’t miss out on this opportunity.
Had a great day with Fabian as our guide. The mountains the falls everything was beautiful. Had a very delicious traditional lunch and had a lesson in making tortillas. Can’t wait to go again.
