The path is a bit long but it was worth every step and every km traveled, crystal clear water that you can even bathe in and drink. - The views were incredible!, my children took many photos, they went on the zip line, everything was incredible, the water was very clear, the guide was an excellent photographer

Waterfalls and lakes - The waterfalls were gorgeous, and the lakes and border towns were incredible. Really enjoyed the international park.
The first lake wanted almost $80 to go on the rafts, so we went to a lake with a nice little shopping area instead. Remember to bring cash as none of these places take card, and to bring your swimsuit for the lake!

Great tour, great part of Mexico - This was a great day; the waterfall is amazing as are the lakes. The tour guide was amazing. Working from before 6 in the morning till after 10 at night on a Sunday and really should be commended. Unfortunately, the weather let us down and it rained quite a lot while visiting the lakes. The tour guide amended the tour as none of us wanted to do the raft activity and we visited the Guatemala border instead. Had a great time all thanks to the guide whose name I can't remember.

Wonderful day and much better experience - I had a terrible 1 star experience with this tour company on their Sumidero Canyon tour the previous day, but I was pleasantly surprised when I did this tour the following day, and everything went perfectly.
The pick up was on time and well done. The places we stopped were fantastic. The waterfalls are out of this world.
The driver, Jose, was great. We spent many hours in the van that day, but Jose was able to relay the necessary information in a way that I could understand with my limited Spanish.

El chiflon and Montebello lakes - El Chiflon is great . Take a hoodie because it can get chilly at the lakes . Take some swim gear . Take cash for the activities. Wear comfortable footwear for the steps at the waterfall

Border Crossing Opportunity - Wow! This is such a cool wtefall to head to! There are two sides to the falls but no interconnecting bridge so you’ll have to go back to the beginning of the trail to start the other side. The lakes were amazing and reminded me of Lake Tahoe just tropical and this tour even goes and crosses the border to Guatemala! Which means you’ll visit a second country on this tour! Highly recommend it !

Amazing Waterfalls - The places we went on this tour were excellent. The waterfalls were amazing! Tour guide was very friendly but was not very informative of the area. Mostly drove and didn't explain anything about the places we went unless he was asked questions. Very long day. Was told we would return at 8:30pm before tour date but asked driver the day of and he said 10:00pm and we got back exactly at 10:00pm. Pick up was suppose to be at 7:00am but wasn't picked up until 7:25am.

Nice Scenary - The views were super nice!! But as i paid for the english speaking tour, i was super disappointed when the driver did not know abit of english. i was not able to converse with him on the duration of each trip and the duration of the drive.
Due to the cloudy weather, the group made some decisions to skip some stops while conversing in spanish. My wife and i were not aware of what was discussed.
