Scenery was amazing, the waterfall was great with all the party jumping off the rocks into the pool. The lunch was one of my favorites as it was a jungle cafe with delicious food and drinks.

When: Oct 2023 Who: 3 adult women - 44, 32, 21 What: 4x4 Guide excursion My sister came down to visit us and she wanted to have a little adventure! We're not a ziplining, rock climbing type of a family, so a guided off-road excursion seemed just the right amount of thrill. We were not disappointed! Our guide, Juan took us up and down through the winding jungle trails. The journey afforded us lovely views and oftentimes it was just us and nature. At any point I supposed we could've careened off the side of the mountain, but Juan's expert driving kept us safely on the road. LOL For anyone who has gone to La Fortuna or anyplace like that, the waterfall that we arrived at was not impressive. Technically, it is a waterfall...water is falling from a river, though not very far. However, it is a secluded spot and there is a place where you can jump into unknown depths. It is not truly a place for swimming, more like a place for paddling against the current or floating around like I did. That said, the water was very refreshing. After the "waterfall" portion, we went to a little restaurant in town and had lunch. You get your choice of drink and a typical Costa Rican Casado where you can choose what type of meat that you want. After lunch, Juan brought us back to the office, but he took us on a different path where the real off-roading began. We were bouncing along through plains, streams and rocky riverbeds. Loads of fun! TIPS: Bring closed toed shoes, preferably hiking boots/sandals, the walk down to the waterfall is tricky. Bring sunglasses or something to protect your eyes from dirt and dust that gets kicked up. Bring whatever you think you need: towels, bug spray...etc., the company doesn't provide those things.TraveLatino

Tour was great. Slow day, so we were the only couple on the tour. Our own "private" tour. Juan was our tour guide and spent a lot of time talking to us about the area and things we should also visit during our stay. He was also able to find my sunglasses after I lost them. He was great! Had I planned accordingly, I would have chosen the ATV tour instead, as the ride up to the waterfalls would have been a fun ATV ride. Nonetheless, it was great to be chauffeured around. lol. Lunch was great, but I was expecting more at the location than just the lunch. Description spoke of tilapia fishing - which apparently is only done once a week. Overall a great trip.
