Our trip was AMAZING!!! Gorgeous views. Extreme adventure. Incredible guides (Juaquin and Lomar)!!!
This experience was incredible. I will admit that it took me out of my comfort zone quite a bit. Also, it was physically challenging. But I am so happy that my friends and I shared this experience. Our tour guide, Lomar, was excellent. He has so much knowledge and such a nice person. I learned a lot about Costa Rica. What an amazing experience. I would do it again 100%!
Lomar and Joaquin were amazing. Excellent tour. I would definitely do it again as long I had the both of them. They made a special trip with my daughter even more special. Lomar helped me overcome my fear of zip lining. Joaquin helped with rapelling. They both had a great sense of humor and love of nature. Together they know more about the plants, animals, trees and insects of the area than I could ever have expected. Now I can't wait to go again! They helped me get the most of out the tour even with my bum knee. They were also great about taking photos for us even when I forgot. Thank you both so much for an experience we will always remember with warmth and smiles. I would give you 20 stars if I could!
This is the second time I've done this tour in the last few years and I would do it again! It is so beautiful and fun to hike the mountain and jump in the waterfalls. We did find some of the trail footing to be a bit challenging, but we were well supported throughout the trip. I really love hearing about the country and culture throughout the day - 5 stars!
We did the Explorer Tour. Before the tour began, we enjoyed a local meal of rice and chicken and plantain chips on banana leaves. The tour itself was very enjoyable, once we got to the water. There is a fairly steep path from the parking area to the stream, with some steps and railings. The remaining portion was rainforest trails. Our guide, Joaquin, pointed out several things along the trail. Once we got to the water, it was fun getting wet and swimming! Joaquin explained safety information at each of the waterfalls. He also helped us proceed upstream to each of the subsequent falls. The kids had a blast sliding down the rocks in the safe areas and even getting behind the falling water when we could. Joaquin did not rush us and let the kids have all the fun they could handle. At the final waterfall, there was a 20' deep pool, so there were places where you could jump in from 10' and even higher. There was a fairly steep, but well-maintained and wide, path to bring us back to the parking lot. A tough climb after all the playing we did in the waterfalls! For many in our group, they agreed this was one of the best adventures we had during our trip! Joaquin was a good guide and was definitely concerned with our safety and learning about the ecosystem at the same time.
Excellent tour!!!! We were picked up promptly at the taco shop and driven up the mountain. Had a light lunch with peach tea very indigenous people great experience. Our guide pointed out all kinds of plants and educated us on many things. Found several poison dart frogs which my son was thrilled!! We are world travelers and would book this again. Very easy to do with kids!
Amazing experience! Our guide, Wilson, was absolutely wonderful! Highly recommend doing the full day waterfall tour for the adventurous soul!
A completely fabulous tour. First being picked up in a great van with air conditioning, the tour guide was amazing, knowledgeable and very courteous. I missed somewhere that they were going to feed us, that was great because my teen was hungry. The food was delicious. From there a ride on a truck that takes you up into the rain forest. Our guide Lomar was a superstar. Knew everything about every plant and animal and pointed it out to us. When we arrived to the unloading spot, he offered us walking sticks and from there we started our descent towards the waterfall pools. They are breathtaking. Swimming in them is a joy and the guides are fantastic at taking pictures with out phones and keeping them dry and safe. They are so strong and will help you navigate all the rocks and the trail. I discovered thanks to my guide flora and fauna I had never seen before and while swimming in one of the pools, it started raining a little. The rainforest. An amazing day that ended with watermelon and pineapple and complete joy. I would just add to bring a towel for when you are done with the whole thing so you don’t stay wet the whole way back to the hotel. Amazing experience.
We had an incredible experience today with Joaquin and Arnoldo. Those guys absolutely love their jobs and it shows! They made our experience exceptional! Fun, engaging, patient, knowledgeable, and passionate about their country. The ride on the jungle limousine was fun, the waterfalls were fantastic, and watching Joaquin and Arnoldo do backflips into the pools was quite memorable! Can’t recommend this experience enough!
Great tour!! The guides did an excellent job, not just directing the tour, but providing info re flora and fauna.
