Highlights
  • Jaco - The Tour de la Paz begins in the mountains directly behind Jacó, and continues roughly half the distance to the peak of the mountain to a beautiful 35ft. waterfall (Cascada del Zorro) – a perfect spot to get a little wet and take some photos.

Just beyond the crest of the mountain lies a beautiful mirador offering views of the ocean playing against sands as far south as Manuel Antonio Park, as far west as the Nicoya Peninsula, and as far north as the port city of Puntarenas.

  • Catarata Bijagual - Continuing along the mountain tops and through the rainforest, you arrive at the second, incredible waterfall of your tour with us - the exciting Pura Vida waterfall.

Surrounded by lush rainforest and crested by a natural rock platform, thrill-seeking adventurers may jump over 15 feet down into the crisp, refreshing waterfall pool below. The sounds of rushing water, coupled with the call of exotic birds combine to make this visit to the Pura Vida Falls a truly Costa Rican experience that you will remember for years to come.

To end the tour, we ride the loop that takes us right to the edge of the famous Carara National Park, and then begin our decent back to Adventure Tours in Jaco.

Enjoyable - What an enjoyable adventure! The guides were incredibly supportive and safety-conscious, even pausing halfway for a restroom break and allowing time for a refreshing swim at the waterfall, despite jumping in fully clothed. Their pick-up service from the Jaco hotel made accessing the ATVs convenient, and the availability of restroom facilities and an outdoor shower was a thoughtful touch. You will get dirty!

Great adventure - This is an adventure made for everyone! Christopher was an amazing guide. He looked out for us and provided an excellent tour! The company was safe, clean and friendly. I would recommend this excursion! I would say that we went during the dry season, so be ready to get dirty!

Great ATV adventure in Jaco - My husband and I had a great ATV tour in Jaco with our guide Christian. We drove up the mountain, stopping for a few pictures, before arriving at the natural swimming pool and waterfall. The roads were very dusty so we got quite dirty but that is all part of the fun. We came back down the same way going through some small water ways, adding to the fun.

Great way to see the mountains and rainforest - We had a great time! The guides were fun and helpful. The views were great, but the highlight was definitely jumping into the waterfall. Although I do recommend water shoes for that. You will get dirty, but that was part of the fun.

Great tour- bring old clothes and shoes! - So much fun- but you will get SO dirty! Bring clothes and shoes you don’t mind ruining! I recommend water shoes and a gator to cover your face! Our guide was excellent. Very hot, but the swimming spot was perfect! Don’t forget sunscreen on your hands!

3 hour atv jungle waterfall - Super fun tour. The sites were incredible and the swim pool was so fun for the kids. The guides were amazing and very helpful. Rated as 4 stars instead of 5 because no goggles were provided and no windshield was on our side by side so we had substantial dust in our eyes and face at the end. But so fun, would definitely do again.
