Such a unique experience! The whole day was so fun. The tour guides, Luis and Lenny, were entertaining the whole time. They kept the energy of the group up and were very knowledgeable about the location.
Keep in mind that the trek through the rain forest is not paved and you will be walking through mud and over rocks and roots. It was well worth it! We had a great time! Highly recommend it!

This tour was absolutely worth the price! For my family we had Pretty boy & Papichulo, they both kept our energy high and made sure we had safe fun from pick up all the way to drop off. My grandmother booked based on the description of the tour sounding as if she just took it slow, she’d manage. That’s the only drawback. My grandmother made it down the very jagged & rocky slope and had to sit the water portion out because it simply had her winded. This is by no means anyone’s fault BUT it should not be advertised as a full family tour. Elderly & pregnant women SHOULD NOT PARTICIPATE even if they are physically fit. The rock slides & rope swing were extremely fun by the way. I think with any natural activity there are dangers that you need to expect & be aware of but as long as you follow instructions you should be okay. This by far was the highlight of vacation. So thankful to have met so many great people in our shuttle. The memories (annnnnd the endless pics & videos papichulo takes) will last a lifetime!

Family trip. I don’t feel like it was worth $80 per person. Should include more to the adventure. Thank you.

It was an awesome time! We had so much fun and our tour guide Tony was super fun and very helpful! We had two little ones 6 & 7 years old and he helped with them walking through the forest, climbing the rocks, and getting through the mud. He made the tour very fun for everyone! DEFINITELY RECOMMEND HIM

I cannot say enough about our adventure today! Tony (Anthony) was the most fun, vivacious guide we could have asked for! He was so knowledgeable, helpful and just a joy to have on our expedition. The waterfall, the slides, everything was 100/10! Book with them!
