A wonderful tour of the rainforest full of discovery and amazing opportunities to take great photographs & enjoy nature - A completely fabulous tour. First being picked up in a great van with air conditioning, the tour guide was amazing, knowledgeable and very courteous. I missed somewhere that they were going to feed us, that was great because my teen was hungry. The food was delicious. From there a ride on a truck that takes you up into the rain forest. Our guide Lomar was a superstar. Knew everything about every plant and animal and pointed it out to us. When we arrived to the unloading spot, he offered us walking sticks and from there we started our descent towards the waterfall pools. They are breathtaking. Swimming in them is a joy and the guides are fantastic at taking pictures with out phones and keeping them dry and safe. They are so strong and will help you navigate all the rocks and the trail. I discovered thanks to my guide flora and fauna I had never seen before and while swimming in one of the pools, it started raining a little. The rainforest. An amazing day that ended with watermelon and pineapple and complete joy. I would just add to bring a towel for when you are done with the whole thing so you don’t stay wet the whole way back to the hotel. Amazing experience.

Memorable experience for entire family! - We had an incredible experience today with Joaquin and Arnoldo. Those guys absolutely love their jobs and it shows! They made our experience exceptional! Fun, engaging, patient, knowledgeable, and passionate about their country. The ride on the jungle limousine was fun, the waterfalls were fantastic, and watching Joaquin and Arnoldo do backflips into the pools was quite memorable! Can’t recommend this experience enough!

Great extreme fun - Great extreme waterfall tour! Just as described - jumps from 2 heights which was exciting, rappelling quick course from a platform, 4 rappels down a waterfall (sections) then the big daddy over the edge! Overall we felt fsafe but some parts are a bit treacherous. We were a family with 2 adults and 2 older teens. Hike out was cool but be warned it is very steep up. Wonderful local breakfast, great guides and adorable dogs!

A day to remember in the Costarican jungles. - This was the adventure of a lifetime. Our guides Jaquin and Wilson were awesome. They were very personable and informative. They both taught us so much about Costarican wildlife , plants and customs. As we were driving, Wilson spotted a sloth off in the distance , Jaquin pulled over so that we could see it and get pictures. While we were stopped, a small toucan flew up and perched on a tree right above our heads. 2 items checked off of our bucket list in the matter of moments:) The waterfalls were amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! My husband and I enjoyed watching the children jump from many different levelsd on the waterfalls while we swam below. Wilson and Jaquin took extreme care making sure that they were safe while they were having the time of their lives. The stop for lunch on the side of the mountain at Soda La Pena was the best meal of the trip. The proprietor was so nice and the guacamole and cantones were delicious. This is definitely a must do on your list when visiting Puntarenos. Pura vida!

Awesome tour! - Awesome tour! We were a group of 14 and the tour was able to set up a private tour for our large group. The staff of Christian, Lomar, Alexis, Arnolda were terrific in getting the group through all the repelling safely with a lot of fun and laughs! This is not a easy tour however our group ranged from 21 - 60 and all made it with som effort. Highly recommend for the tour and terrific staff!!

Amazing tour! - I highly recommend this tour! Not only were the scenery and waterfalls beyond gorgeous, the guides were amazing! Joaquin, Lomar and Mike were extremely knowledgeable and have great personalities. We learned so much about Costa Rica, the jungle inhabitants (both vegetable and animal) and the people - we completely fell in love with this area!

Book this tour - This was one of our favorite tours on this trip. We were taken into the jungle on a large 4x4 truck and then we hiked into the jungle and learned about the plants and wildlife until we got to a series of waterfalls that we were able to jump into and swim. The hike out was great as well and they fed us an amazing lunch. I highly recommend

The was amazing and full of Costa Rica Rain Forest Beauty. - Our guide was very helpful and knowledgeable of all of the waterfalls we visited. Our Guide was exceptional and professional. The organizer we scheduled with extorted another $20.00 from us because they had to pick us up instead of meeting them. The issue was they had to drive right by where we were staying. In my message to the organizer is stated I wanted the extra $20.00 to go to our guide. I do not know if that ever happened. The description says they do pick ups. Be wary if they want more money from you.
