It was a really good experience connecting with nature. We had the best guide for our tour. I recommend going with Catherine La Tiana. She is full of energy and very knowledge of the area.

It was a great jungle hike. I am so glad my husband and I do SilverSneakers everyday so our legs are quite ready. There are lots of steep rock climb. Paul, our guide, was very nice about making sure he lends us an extra wait when crossing rocky rivers and climbing steep hills.
This trip was amazing! We had Taina and Patricia who were both so warm and welcoming. They were super knowledgeable and down to earth. We appreciated that they kept offering to take pictures and videos of us so we could enjoy later while still living in the moment. They took us to a local lunch spot after which was super good and authentic. Would recommend asking for them!
Book this excursion and ask for Alex. Wonderful experience, he was very knowledgeable and personable.
This experience was amazing. The 2 tour guides were great and made the experience amazing. Would highly recommend anyone to try this out with them.
