    Highly recommend this activity. Pablo is so friendly down to earth and knowledgeable about the area. My boyfriend and i were lucky enough to be alone on a tour with him, he took us to a butterfly garden, 3 waterfalls and a beach with amazing caves, (he even stopped and got us beers) you can slide down a waterfall and jump into one of its pools which was a blast. We finished off at a beautiful restaurant with the most amazing view and watched the sunset with a delicious cocktail.

    Our guide was very kind...

    Lauralie_P, Feb 2026
    Our guide was very kind and knowledgeable! We went to 3 different locations. My partner had the best time sliding in one of the waterfall! He offered us transportations and communicated well with us via what’s app! It was a private activity, only us two with the guide!

    Pablo gave us a wonderful experience

    Sliding down waterfalls

    Pablo was an excellent tour guide! He took us to many beautiful locations. I got to slide down a waterfall and check that off my bucket list.

    Exactly what we wanted! We dodged the crowds and went to some waterfalls you would either have to really search for to get to, or know someone. We even had a bonus butterfly sanctuary visit. We went during the wet season so the falls were really flowing! Nothing better than hanging with the locals doing exactly what they do with their own families 🤙 The hikes are short and the falls are beautiful. Bring your water shoes and swim suit because you will want to jump in to feel that energy ❤️

    Great waterfall experience!

    Kellen_A, Jan 2025
    We had such a blast! We went to three different waterfalls, 2 of which we never would have found on our own. Pablo was super helpful and knowledgeable not only about the falls but also local eats, where to get the best view, and more. He stopped and got us cervaza’s, and we ended the night at a very pretty lookout point to watch the sunset. And his wife baked amazing banana bread we got to try. Definitely recommend!

    A MUST!

    Pablo was so awesome!! We thoroughly enjoyed all the waterfalls. We never would have seen what we did without him. I HIGHLY recommend this tour. Will definitely tour w him on our out next trip!! 10/10 experience.

    Exploring with Pablo

    John_C, Dec 2024
    We had a lovely time with Pablo! He took us to a couple of beautiful waterfalls where we could swim, a couple of gorgeous beaches with caves and some unique features that we likely would not have found on our own, and a fantastic lookout overlooking the famous whales tail at Marina Ballena National Park. We learned a little bit about real estate in the area too as he is also a realtor. Would recommend this tour.

    Excellent!!

    Jesse_G, Nov 2024
    This was a great family experience. Lots of fun had by all!! Pablo was a great guide and fun to talk to. I would definitely recommend this trip!!

    Friendly Guide & Fun Trip

    Rob_G, Mar 2024
    Pablo is an excellent tour guide! Such a great trip. He’s full of stories and recommendations and has lived quite an interesting life. Some of the locations turned out to be low water. He quickly pivoted and showed us some different areas.

    Pure authentical experience

    Jennifer_L, Jan 2024
