Amazing day trip - Great hike with gorgeous beaches! The tour guide was very nice and informative. Only downside was not being able to spend time at every beach

Don’t sweat the “hike” wear regular shoes and swimsuit - This is our second time on the hike. It’s so easy, rewarding and the kids loved every second. It’s worth every penny. Side note: a few people complained of the “technical terrain”, but for an active family like ours it was super easy and mildly exerting. March and April the trail was almost empty, but December the trail was jam packed with people and guides (even on a Monday morning). Ask for Rocco!

Lovely day of hiking - This was such a a fun day adventure. I took the trip myself and met a lot of nice people in my group. Juan was great as our hike tour leader! The meet up spot was easy to find and Juan had all the transportation for us mapped out. He was very accommodating and made sure everyone got back safely. The hike was very fun and so beautiful. Make sure to have shoes that you can go around some rocky terrain up and down some tricky areas. I had chacos and they worked well for me for being in the water and on the hike. It was high tide when we went so the water was a bit strong to be able to swim in but the temperature was very nice. We had some fruit from the stand at the third beach spot which was delicious. The restaurant we went to at the end was so good. Must get the ceviche! The boat ride back was quick and caught the bus back to the meeting spot. Depending on when you got and the others on the group it may take a little longer especially with traffic on the way back so keep that in mind. I took the whole day for this so I didn't feel stressed to be back at a specific time. Would definitely do one of their other tours again!

Beautiful beaches. No... - Beautiful beaches. No snorkeling stuff was provided. Some of the most beautiful beaches just got better the further down the trail we went. Got seated at a nice restaurant at the end. In hind sight I would skip the restaurant and swim until it is time to leave. Ended up paying extra for a water taxi back. Be prepared for that..

Public transportation included - I would completely recommend this excursion. My husband and I are looking forward to doing this again on our own. On this trip we were a group of 23, including young children under 6 and elderly family members around 77 years old. Although we weren’t fully aware of how challenging the hike would be, our guides were exceptional. They adapted the experience so everyone could enjoy it together. We made brief stops at each beach due to time constraints and spent about 2 hours swimming at the final stop. Lunch on the beach, with calm waves and stunning scenery, was unforgettable. However, I couldn’t give it 5 stars because we had to take a taxi to the meeting point and then public transportation to the trailhead. This delayed our arrival, frustrated the locals, and added unnecessary complexity. That said, the bus ride itself was a unique experience.

Not so hidden - The hike was great!! I liked taking public transport. The beaches were not “hidden” and were quite busy. The first swimming beach had a lot of boats coming annd going in the swim atea. Also there wasn’t really any snorkeling so that was very disappointing. Our guide Juan was great!
