Cesar was a great guide and very knowledgeable about all things Costa Rica. Great trip for families even with small children. The hike is manageable.
The experience was great. Caesar was very knowledgeable very friendly. The lunch afterward was outstanding.
Great tour with amazing views and stops at waterfalls. We had a blast playing in the clay. Our guide was knowledgeable and friendly.
Omgosh book this NOW! Believe the hype. Juan Carlos is AMAZING! It was justy family of four for the tour. We saw everything we wanted to see, and even more, a mama sloth with her baby. Just unbelievable. I’ll do this over and over again. The food was authentic and do delicious
Wonderful experience with Juan Carlos today at Hacienda Ebano. We took the safari vehicle for most of our excursion and a short hike to the Ebano Falls. The excursion can be done with or without the short hike. We saw parrots, toucans, hawks, howler monkey (mom & baby), red poisonous frogs and a small snake. Juan Carlos did a magnificent job spotting everything and taking the time to make sure we saw it as well. A fabulous day for our family while on vacation in OSA.
Cesar and JC at Hacienda Ebano did an excellent job guiding our family of 8 through the wildlife and waterfalls. We were treated to an amazing mountain top view of the Ocean and coastline. The food for lunch at the end was very impressive as well. Wonderful place to see the rainforest of Costa Rica.
I cannot say enough about this tour. JC was phenomenal and Cesar the ultimate host. The most striking thing was how much JC knew and how passionate he is for his believed Costa Rica. We fed off of his enthusiasm. We had a little medical event - nothing major - on the tour and we were so impressed with their care and compassion. I would totally recommend this tour and if we come back will do it again! Diane, Sue, Stacie and Jeanette
We absolutely loved our waterfall tour with Juan Carlos! He has an amazing knowledge of so many things in the forest. We experienced such incredible sights and would definitely recommend this company to anyone who is interested in gaining a new perspective on the natural world! Thank you JC and Cesar!!
As advertised. Juan Carlos was our guide and he was great at pointing out things we would have otherwise missed. And the open-aired jeep is the way to go.
The waterfall and rainforest safari tour was the highlight of our trip. The grounds at Hacienda Ebano are beautiful and full of wildlife. Our Guide Juan Carlos made the tour so special. With him we were able to see many birds including both kinds of toucans. We saw two kinds of poison dart frogs and learned about the rainforest ecosystem. We had the waterfall to ourselves as we took a refreshing dip. We finished the tour with a delicious lunch. I can’t recommend this tour enough. If you go, please ask for Juan Carlos. He was the best tour guide we had during our entire trip and we had wonderful guides in most places. Juan Carlos shows his passion for the land and ecosystem and makes you feel like a sort of his family. Don’t miss this one.
