Highly recommended
Excellent experience, with the guides I felt safe at all times. It requires moderate physical exertion due to walking and flow within the river itself.

Exciting and enjoyable tubing experience
We really enjoyed the tubing - it was a good mix of adrenaline and rapids, but still relaxing enough to enjoy. The water moved quite quickly so we were offered to redo the course, and twice was enough to get the full experience and your money's worth.
The water was clean, cool and the waterfall is beautiful.
Operator response
Thank you for this amazing review! We’re so happy you enjoyed the mix of adrenaline and relaxation — that’s exactly the tubing experience we aim to deliver.
We’re glad you took advantage of repeating the course and got the full value, and even happier to hear you loved the clean, refreshing water and the waterfall.
Hope to see you back for another adventure soon!

Irresponsible and reckless
Two people from my team almost drowned during the experience.
The currents were so strong that it was impossible to stay inside the tube, causing falls with injuries on the rocks and near drowning.
Only two instructors for five people, who did very little.
Very basic briefing.
The team is not qualified to handle such situations.
Operator response
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We are truly sorry to hear that your activity did not meet expectations and that you felt unsafe at any point — guest safety is, and will always be, our top priority.
We would like to clarify a few important points regarding our operations. All of our guides are thoroughly trained in water sports and certified in water rescue procedures and first aid. Additionally, we use equipment exclusively from internationally recognized safety brands that meet recommended standards for this type of activity.
Before entering the river, every guest receives a safety induction conducted in calm waters. This briefing is specifically designed to prepare participants for real-river conditions, including what to do in the event of a fall from the tube and how to position themselves safely in moving water.
River conditions can naturally vary depending on weather and recent rainfall, and on occasions currents may be stronger than anticipated. When this occurs, our guides are trained to adapt the experience and provide assistance as needed. We regret if, in your case, this was not perceived adequately and we take this feedback seriously.
Your comments have been shared with our operations team as part of our continuous review process, as we are always looking for ways to improve communication, supervision ratios, and overall guest experience.

¡An exhilarating experience!
An exhilarating experience through the rapids with amazing guides who were conscientious of our safety. We highly recommend this thrilling experience where we ended the ride standing below a magnificent waterfall. However, this is not for the physically weak as the hike down to the river & back up is quite challenging due to the length & steepness.
We give this 10 🌟 !!! ¡Muchas gracias!
Operator response
Dear Sally,
Thank you so much for this amazing review! We’re thrilled you enjoyed the ride through the rapids — and that our team made you feel safe while still bringing the adrenaline! That final moment at the waterfall is pure magic specially now in Winter.
We agree with you, this experience is an adventure from start to finish, and the hike definitely adds to the challenge (and the bragging rights haha). We’ll be here with helmets, tubes, and waterfalls waiting for your next round of adventure, and hopefully some f the new projects available. ¡Have a safe trip back home!
