This was an amazing experience! I was a bit concerned because We had 2 young teens, and I don't know how to swim. This did not stop us and I felt safe the whole time. We wore left jackets and the water was never an issue. All 9 of us had the best time, and our guide excellent!! Highly Recommend. The waterfall was nothing less than awesome! Nature at its best.

We had an amazing time on this adventure. It was myself, my wife, and my 6 year old son. We got to see some wildlife (huge tiger ants, howler monkey) and cool fauna (bead tree and gum tree) that the guide gave us background information on. Our guide Luis couldn't have been friendlier or a better guide. The water was a bit cold but what a treat you are rewarded with when you get to the waterfall. Simply breathtaking.
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re thrilled to hear that you, your wife, and your son had such a memorable experience. It’s great to know that you enjoyed the wildlife, fascinating flora, and that Luis made your tour even more special with his knowledge and friendliness. We completely agree—the waterfall is truly breathtaking! We hope to welcome you back for another adventure soon.
Orlando was an excellent driver who politely assisted us getting in and out of the van. We felt very safe on our day trip. Jose was a wonderful and very knowledgeable tour guide. His English was excellent and he had a great sense of humour. He made the day most enjoyable.
Thank you so much for your kind words. We’re very happy to hear that Orlando made you feel safe and well assisted throughout the trip — he will truly appreciate your feedback. It’s also wonderful to know that Jose made your day enjoyable with his knowledge, great English, and sense of humor. We’ll be sure to share your comments with both of them. It was a pleasure having you with us, and we hope to welcome you again on your next visit to Costa Rica. Pura Vida! Pure Nature Team
We had an incredible time on the La Leona adventure hike! I didn’t know what to expect but it was so much fun! Luis was an excellent guide and educated us and made sure we felt safe in the water. We also went a more adventurous route for jumping into the river a couple times. He was very good on ensuring we were comfortable. I highly recommend this tour. I would suggest though individuals are in decent shape as the stairs are quite steep and some might have trouble in the waters a bit in certain areas. Ask the guides or company for more info on this as there might be an easier route as well.
Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience! 🌿💧 We’re thrilled to hear that you had such an incredible time on the La Leona Adventure Hike and that it exceeded your expectations. Luis will be very happy to know that his guidance, knowledge, and focus on safety made you feel confident and comfortable throughout the tour — especially during the more adventurous jumps into the river! We truly appreciate you mentioning the physical aspect of the hike. You’re absolutely right: while it’s a lot of fun, it does require a decent level of fitness due to the steep stairs and some sections in the water. As you mentioned, we’re always happy to discuss alternative or easier routes so guests can choose what best suits them. Thank you again for your recommendation and for trusting us with your adventure. We hope to see you again in Costa Rica for another unforgettable experience! 🇨🇷✨
Excellent driver, Orlando! Our guide Rudy is knowledgeable, funny, professional!! They are both very accommodating, would certainly recommend them. The rain forest for sloths and wildlife was amazing, cocoa and coffee plantation so informative. Again would highly recommend both Rudy the guide and Orlando the driver for any tour. Thank you and Pura Vida!!
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re thrilled to hear that you had such a great experience with Orlando and Rudy.

We’re glad you loved the rainforest experience and the coffee and cocoa plantation — they truly showcase the beauty and culture of Costa Rica. Thank you again for your recommendation and for choosing us. Pura Vida, and we hope to welcome you back for another adventure soon!

A very beautiful and exciting trip in a dreamlike landscape. Anyone who loves adventure must take this tour. Our guides, Emmanuel and Luiz, are excellent hosts and taught us interesting things about botany and fauna.
thank you very much for such an exceptional comment, I look forward to seeing you for more adventures..Pura Vida
The La Leona Adventure Hike was amazing! Noel was an outstanding guide, fun, friendly, and made the whole experience unforgettable. Highly recommend!
You have left a smile on the face of our entire team with your kind words.
The trip is fantastic. Be prepared for the fact that it is physically demanding and that you will have to wander and use your strength to navigate in the water. In turn, it’s all worth it – and perfect for teenagers who need to burn some energy off.
Thank you for sharing your positive review about our service
