Melvin our guide was great. He was excellent explaining the area and showing us around Rio Celeste. It was a rainy day and he still made the trip very enjoyable
Amazing, we loved a very nice guy.
The tour to Rio Celeste was absolutely incredible. Our guide Melvin was super friendly, really good at spotting animals and had so much knowledge about the animals and nature. He also helped us get some really nice pictures of the animals through his telescope.
It was truly a very fun experience. The hike was very calm; the guide Melvin ensured that we all enjoyed the tour, the lunch was delicious, and the trip was very peaceful. I recommend it 100%.
We had a wonderful experience!! Joseph was a fantastic guide, who gave great info throughout the hike and the day. He pointed out snakes and lizards we otherwise had zero chance of spotting. Fantastic experience, thank you so much.
It has been a great experience, totally recommendable both for the incredible surroundings and for the great professionalism of the guide, Melvin, who made our excursion magnificent.

The guide tour Melvin was an excellent and helpful tour with a lot of info. William was an excellent driver.
We had the greatest day! 100% reccomend! With Mel and William! They are the nicest
Río Celeste exceeded our expectations. We were able to enjoy beautiful landscapes, see sloths, snakes, turtles, and iguanas during the tour, and the waterfall was truly impressive. Additionally, we were lucky that the weather was favorable, allowing us to appreciate the spectacular blue color of the water. We especially want to highlight our guide, Malvin, who was a genius. Thanks to their explanations and great willingness, the experience was much more enriching. We also want to thank William, our driver, for his kindness and excellent service. We were fortunate that there were no other passengers, so we enjoyed a practically private tour. Afterward, we shared a delicious buffet lunch and ended the day swimming in a river with blue waters, which made the experience even more special. Without a doubt, an excursion that we recommend to anyone visiting Costa Rica. Pure life!
