Very helpful guide - “Randy” was amazing. Very kind and helpful. We had a great time! It was just our family and Randy pointed out interesting flora, trees and insects. I had recently suffered a sprained ankle and broken toe and Randy was always offering a hand to help me keep from fuether injury.

Amazing Experience - Definitely Recommend - This was definitely one of a kind tour to go on. Even though the hike there might not be the easiest, then it's all worth it. There were so many amazing water spots before the waterfall and then the finish with the picture perfect view at the end. Just amazing! Definitely recommend! Great guides, everything was well planned and perfectly tailored.

The Best Attraction Possible in Half a Day - In all honesty this is one of the best nature hikes available in CR, walking alongside the Sky Blue waters of the river, while at the same time entering caves with bats and dipping in the cool waters to refresh from the Guanacaste heat to finally arriving at the Leona waterfall is just breathtaking! 10000% recommended.
