Really enjoyed the treatment from the captain and guide Jose Ramon- they are the reason why I am selecting 2 stars. The tour itself did not go as explained on the itinerary. We did the horseback riding to El Limon waterfall first (it was supposed to be last) but it did not bother us, just changed into the other set of clothes for it. The horseback riding guides were friendly but at the end shared that they would only get paid what we would give them, we gave them all the cash we had but they were upset with that. Between the giftshop and time at the waterfall we were given less than an hour. The food at the ranch was authentic and delicious. After we took the safari truck again to the boat and then to Cayo Levantado. We were given less than an hour to enjoy the beach. Our experience was from 930am to 5pm, but we spent most of that time commuting. This tour had the making to be a great experience- the fact that it’s rushed and you’re asked for more money at every turn makes it lacking. The captain gave us a fun ride back to the pier. He’s a true hospitality specialist.
