I booked this tour last minute get out of Tamarindo and experience another adventure. This tour is completely worth it! Luiz was our guide and it was just my boyfriend and I and he showed us different wildlife and flora/flauna, he took us cliff jumping, to a smaller waterfall that locals go to, and he took so many pictures and videos for us. We had a driver that didn’t speak english but we communicated through google translate. He took us to a local lunch spot in Liberia. After eating we were so tired that we just wanted to go back to the hotel and he took us straight back. He was super nice and talked/showed us Costa Rica culture and told us about their Independence Day. Really great day!

Thank you so much for your review! 😊 We’re thrilled you enjoyed the tour and the adventure! We truly appreciate the recommendation and the great tip about wearing good shoes. We hope to see you again on your next visit to Costa Rica! 🌿🇨🇷
Extremely cool experience! Everything we wanted it to be! Our driver Eddie was very good (it's about 75 min of driving). The hike was fantastic and our tour guide Alejandro would outstanding! Our kids said it was the coolest thing they had ever done- waterfalls, cave, a natural waterslide, and a cliff jump! Terrific experience!!
There were some difficult parts of the hike that would be very challenging for kids younger than 6-7, elderly people, or those with poor mobility and stamina.

This was a once in lifetime experience and we will have amazing memories for a lifetime. The tour is physically demanding as a multi terrain hike. Our guide Christian was absolutely fantastic! He was knowledgeable and put all of his guests safety first. This tour really is a must do! As a tip, we recommend standing in the bed of the truck on the way to the drop off point to start your adventure!! 10/5 stars!

This was an amazing experience! I was a bit concerned because We had 2 young teens, and I don't know how to swim. This did not stop us and I felt safe the whole time. We wore left jackets and the water was never an issue. All 9 of us had the best time, and our guide excellent!! Highly Recommend. The waterfall was nothing less than awesome! Nature at its best.

You have left a smile on the face of our entire team with your kind words.
Carlos was our tour guy and Orlando our driver. we were very happy with them. Very professional, pleasant and very helpful,. We had a wonderful time and we recommend this duo. What a great experience we had!!!
The trip is fantastic. Be prepared for the fact that it is physically demanding and that you will have to wander and use your strength to navigate in the water. In turn, it’s all worth it – and perfect for teenagers who need to burn some energy off.

Thank you for sharing your positive review about our service
A wonderful experience, the place is stunning. Our driver Orlando has been very punctual and has given us a lot of information about the area and Costa Rica in general. Our guide on the walk has been Imanol, he has taught us a lot and adapted to our pace. A highly recommended experience, yes, we were very lucky to be few people, I don't know how it will be in high season.
