Great experience. Los...

Hannu_N, Jan 2026
Great experience. Los Coloradas was just like in the description. We had a great time and got to see cocodrillos and flamingos which we were a bit sceptical at first (on many similar trips we haven’t seen anything). Also big thanks to our guide who kept us well informed about everything.

Response from Host, Apr 2026

We’re so happy to hear that you had such a positive experience and that everything met your expectations. It’s wonderful that you were able to see crocodiles and flamingos, especially after not having much luck on other tours—those moments truly make the experience extra special. We also really appreciate you highlighting our guide, who always strives to support and share the best of each place. Thank you for your trust, and we’d love to welcome you again.

A long but fun-packed one day trip.

Zhiqiang_J, Dec 2024
It was a long (16hours minus ~10min, between being picked up from and to the hotel) but fun-packed one-day trip. The guide was acknowledgeable, friendly, and fluent in English, Spanish, and Italian. One thing that made me give it a 4 instead of 5 stars is that the environmental protection tax, which was not mentioned during the booking, was more than the half of the original total price (85 over 158 USD). Wish it could have been mentioned at the reservation.
