Fabulous experience - It was an unexpected experience. We were amazed by the nature, the silence, the route, and the color of the water. We make the most of everything. Our guide Jorge accompanied us at all times with the best attitude and good humor.

Highly recommend this company ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ - I did a 3 night/4 day eco tour package with them and I am very impressed with how professional, safe and organized they were. To give you a little background about me: I’m a tour operator in Hawaii, USA and a world traveler so I have extensive experience in this industry, and high standards.
Our days were filled with nature activities involving paddling, swimming, jumping off rocks, visiting gardens, and trying local foods. All the guides we had the pleasure to meet were exceptional; Toño 💕😎Jorge, Ricardo #1 and #2. They work in a team to ensure everyone is safe, and having fun at all times. Every night the office sent us a detailed text to let us know about our next day adventures. The guides were always on time. The price for what you get is in my opinion of great value. Do get ready to get wet. Get yourself a good pair of hiking water sandals. Remember to tip your guides generously. They work for that, do an amazing job with a smile and deserve it! Thank you Huaxteca.com for an unforgettable 4 days of adventure. 🙏🏼✨🤗❤️🤙🏼

Jump out of your comfort zone into the waters - We had an amazing experience with th guides Shanha and Jorge and all the other guests taking part in the tour. It is a once in a lifetime experience although I would consider doing it again. :-) It was a lot of fun with all the people joining us, thanks for taking care of us and offering us this special experience. It was well organized and the food offered was amazing. Thank you!

Spectacular Waterfall and Cenote - A great experience: 1) Paddling 4 km upriver in a pangas (traditional long, narrow wooden boat). The current isn’t very strong, except at one location where it is necessary to exit the pangas so the guide and boat guide can pull it past some rapids, 2) the waterfall itself: spectacular. A large rock in the middle of the river is the perfect vantage point to photograph the falls (good footwear is essential as the rock can be slippery and has uneven surfaces), 3) the boat ride down river, where riding through the mild rapids is exhilarating, 4) a swim in a cave/cenote, with a very comfortable water temperature (note: it is mandatory to wear a life jacket while swimming), and 5) an excellent lunch at a local restaurant before heading back to Ciudad Valles.
Beautiful scenery along the river: multiple smaller waterfalls, cliffs, cacti, and interesting rock formations caused by water erosion.
My only complaint: the tour was described as Spanish and English. 85% of the commentary was in Spanish. In my experience, on bilingual tours, commentary and questions/answers are made in both languages, so everyone is able to participate and understand to the same degree. Not the case here. Not a huge issue, but it would have been nice to better understand some of the guide’s observations and commentary.
