Fernando was amazing. Will definitely book again because of him!! Great experience !!
Great experience with Fernando! Wonderful tour guide and beautiful scenery!
Great experience! Great tour! Excellent service with Fernando!
If you’re thinking of driving yourself to these things, just don’t. Let Alex take you on a comfy and safe trip (he knows the shortcuts and gets the great parking spots-you don’t)! He is also magical with children, and there were times where the 6 kids in our group were just up front hiking with him at the volcano, learning about flora and fauna in a fun way. This is a great way to hit three major attractions in one very full day. Start with your swimsuit and coverup on, because the waterfall is first. Towels are a must, raincoats less so. The food is great. Book it now!
Alex was amazing. He was knowledgeable and easy to talk to. Our family was able to pack in Fortuna volcano, waterfall and the amazing hot springs in one day. We even stopped at a lovely shop on the way in and had a beautiful backdrop for photos. Absolutely beautiful day and couldn’t have asked for a better guide!
