Roberto Barrios Waterfalls
Overview
Roberto Barrios is located about an hour drive outside of the town of Palenque. One of the newest tours that we offer, where you’ll have the opportunity to get to know a territory once owned by the EZLN (Zapatista Army of National Liberation), to become a community focused on eco-tourism through a natural bath that comes from waters with colors varying from turquoise blue to emerald. The changing of colors is due to the reflection of the sun on the limestone floor, the water comes from a branch of the Tulija river. The falls consist of 6 swimming areas that all have their own unique touch inside of the jungle. Some offer high waterfalls that you can jump off and others offer relaxing infinity pools. The whole area is filled with natural slides, caves you can venture into, and waterfalls to shower in.

We paid 750 pesos each for what was advertised locally at 300 pesos. We also didn't get what we paid for at all. First of all, the collectivo arrived 11:15 instead of 12, catching us unprepared and rushed. The ticket clearly states that we pay for an English speaking local tour guide. Then there was no guide and the driver didn't speak english either. Which makes sense since there are no guides for those waterfalls needed, so the advertisment is completely wrong. The entry cost of roberto barrios is 20 pesos and the price for a collectivo for a 50 min ride and back shouldn't exceed 50 pesos per person, and I'm being generous. The collectivo then took us all back at 3:20, so we stayed for 3 hours instead of the 5 advertised. He dropped us off temporarily at a gas station where we had to wait for 30 minutes for everyone to get a different collectivo to get them back to their hotels. Without understanding the situation fully as, as stated, the driver didn't speak english. We rightfully requested a refund but were denied one as Viator believe what we experienced was in-line with what was advertised. Do not recommend, just get a collectivo or even a taxi to the waterfalls rather than waste your money!Daniella S

Beautiful waterfalls! Not too far from Palenque and not overly crowded. Several tour companies at the bus terminal run tours for 300 pesos a person.

Für nur Transport und Aufenthalt ist ein Mietwagen wohl günstiger. Auch einen englischsprachigen Guide gab es nicht.

El lugar lo conocí hasta que llegue aquí y me lo ofrecieron en un tour. No pude ver los azules que muestran las fotografías. La mejor cascada es la numero 3.
