We loved this tour! The waterfalls are beautiful to look at but also to swim in. Afterwards you get to visit a small farming community for a really tasty lunch and sample coffee and chocolates. Highly recommend if you’re visiting Huatulco.

Long Drive

Simon_P, Mar 2026

Very pretty waterfalls. Easy access but not for those that might have mobility problems. The drive is 1.5 hours with 30 minute over a very rough road. Our driver was excellent. The lunch was good and plentiful. Overall a positive experience.

Response from Host, Mar 2026

Thank you, Simon, for sharing your experience! We’re glad you enjoyed the beautiful waterfalls, the lunch, and that you felt well taken care of by our driver. The mountainous route does include a rustic road section, but it allows access to these lovely natural sites. We appreciate your feedback and hope to welcome you again! The Paraiso Huatulco Team.

What a blissful Adventure!

Corinne_D, Apr 2023

What an amazing adventure we had. Armando was insightful thoughtful and full of life as our tour guide. Not only did he speak excellent English, but he was super fun. He didn’t leave anything out including how to step through some challenging areas on this trek through the 7 magical waterfalls tour. My mom and I along w x2 other Canadians had a blast. I highly recommend doing this tour as it’s well worth every penny spent of $95.00 CAD for the two of us. ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Response from Host, Apr 2023

It's always great to have a tour guide who can not only provide insightful information but also make the experience enjoyable and fun. It's fantastic that you found the tour to be worth every penny and that you would highly recommend it to others. Thank you for choosing this tour and for taking the time to share your positive feedback. We hope to have the opportunity to serve you again in the future. Best regards.

I cannot say enough good things about this excursion. The two gentlemen that were our guides were amazing. They made sure everyone had a great time. The drive up the mountain was something else but beautiful. I highly recommend this trip. I will do this again.

Response from Host, Oct 2022

Anfitriona Viridiana Cruz pesima su actitud

Carlos_L, Jul 2022

El viaje muy bien, pero la srta Viridiana Cruz que se hace llamar la anfitriona muy grosera y nada atenta. Yo no asisti al paseo unicamente mi familia yo me quede en el hotel y le estuve marcando para que me dijera a que hora terminaba el paseo ya que me di cuenta que no habia señal telefonica y muy grosera me contesto despues de cuatro llamadas y gritandome al telefono, y yo angustiado por querer saber unicamente la hora de regreso. Muy mal x ella.
