A hike that's surpassed my former favorite Hawaiian hike Ka'au Crater! - This has been the best tour I've ever been for a hike with waterfalls! Randolph was an awesome guide, very knowledgeable, trustworthy, and a great leader. I look forward to future tours with La EX Tours! This Tabernacle Thundering Waterfall hike is a must!! For those who cannot attend, ask for accommodations so they can enjoy the small town destination where we parked and had breakfast and lunch. Cheers.

Ask for Fredny - Absolutely zero complaints. Fredny Abreu guided us and really made sure it was an EXPERIENCE. We climbed, we jumped, we slid, and he got us out there nice and early so that our group was out there alone and really communing with nature. I also proposed at the top of the cascades with the help and coordination of the team. Truly made for an unforgettable moment. A must for the outdoor lover.

Great experience! - Went on Tabernacle Waterfall hike with Fredny, and it was a great experience. From pickup right from my Airbnb to the opportunity to meet other travelers, along with Fredny guiding us skillfully through all the cascades - it was a great experience! Multiple opportunities to cliff jump that I was able to do with Fredny's support. Overall a fantastic experience!

Great experience. Victor... - Great experience. Victor was a great guide, so much fun. Once he picked us up we asked if we could do waterfall rappelling (extreme hike) and he was able to change our trip for us. The hike was tough but really fun. Rappelling was also hard but a great experience. Would highly recommend if you are in shape and have both upper body and lower body strength to do the extreme hike. The water was very strong in the waterfall so be prepared. It also gets very cold in the water. They give you a life vest which makes it easier to swim through the creek.

We had a great time. Our... - We had a great time. Our guide held our phones to take pictures, and walked us to the waterfall. Your hiking shoes will get wet when swimming through the water, I recommend being prepared for that. We enjoyed the real homemade DR cuisine as well. Overall 10/10 experience.

Tabernacle Thundering Waterfall in Los Cacaos, Dominican Republic - I had such an exhilarating hike to the Tabernacle Thundering Waterfall in Los Cacaos, Dominican Republic! This hike was probably the most fun and challenging hike I have ever completed. I climbed, swam, jumped off cliffs into the water, and went sliding down waterfalls. The views were extremely spectacular and I would absolutely do this hike again! If you enjoy hiking in general then you will absolutely love this one! I enjoyed every single waterfall on this hike but I especially loved the majestic Tabernacle Thundering Waterfall at the end. It was very beautiful to see up close! Also, I really liked our outstanding guide, Ronnie. He was extremely fun, knowledgeable, encouraging, and he made us all feel very safe throughout the entire duration of this stunning hike!
