Really cool experience!! - Our guide Alejandro was really good and we had a lot of fun and got a lot of cool fotos out of it! We were a really small group, maybe because we did it during the rainy season in Costa Rica, which was amazing. Definitely recommend!!

Amazing waterfall hike - Wonderful experience with Ian and Brandy! They were so knowledgeable about the area and its history. The hike was hard at times (highly recommend wearing good water shoes) but Ian and Brandy ensured our safety throughout the hike. The view is beautiful and was worth the hike

La Leona waterfall adventure hike/swim - It lashed rain the whole tour but it was still an awesome fun family adventure. Sun shine would have been nice but absolutely not required for a great day out!

Water fall adventure - This trip was sooo much fun. It was a 10/10 adventure. Be prepared for a challenge. You will need to swim and climb over under obstacles. Tubing was fun. Friendly guides Alex and Francisco pointed out lots of flora and wildlife I would have missed. You won't regret it!

The best day! - I believe we signed up for the group tour but most of the time it was just our guide and our family of 3, and you would end up with others on certain parts of the hike.
We were immediately greeted by Bernie to check us in for our tour, he was very nice and explained everything to us. Their office is very clean and has a shower/bathroom and lockers to store your items in if needed.
Our shuttle arrived to take us to the starting point and we were introduced to our guide Mariano. Once at the starting point we were able to see howler monkeys and get our life vests. We are all strong swimmers, but would recommend this as it helps to have it to float in the water and relax along the way. After getting set up we were taken to a spot where we had the option to jump in, it isn't terribly high and was really fun!! Mariano said there was an easy, medium or extreme option to get to the waterfall - he said he thought medium would be best for us and we took his advice. It was a great hike! And the waterfall is so beautiful. Once you get there you are able to swim around for a bit and then you make the hike back. It was one of the most fun days we have ever had and was the highlight to our trip to Costa Rica.
Mariano was awesome! Very friendly, knowledgeable and made sure we stayed safe. He grabbed our phone many times to make wonderful pictures and video for us.
At the end we were given some fresh watermelon and bananas.
What a wonderful day we will always remember :)
