A day of landscapes and waterfalls. - It is an amazing place, since you start the rural road you have already won with seeing its landscapes. Upon arrival at the park the staff are very attentive and offer you a complimentary natural drink. Eddie, on the other hand, adds a special touch to the visit by telling you about fauna and flora that you will find in the place, the walk is slow, which gives you the opportunity to see some reptiles and mammals. Very good food and snaks too. They offer you life jacket in case you can not swim and also take good photos as a souvenir of your visit. The tour apparently does not handle large groups, which is very good because it gives you peace of mind and the opportunity to interact a little more closely with the group. A unique experience, with amazing views and very good anecdotes to tell.

What a great day!! - We had a fun day today. Our guide Brian was a super guy. Very friendly and attentive to everyone's need. We first visited a small fall and made a stop at the beach. The highlight of the day, however, was certainly seeing the falls. When we arrived at the park, we were transferred to a smaller vehicle that took us down a very steep road. Then we walked down thru the jungle down a path to the falls. It was a great walk down. Brian pointed out information about several plants and certain trees we came across. We spent time at the falls swimming and enjoying its beauty. It is a sight to see. Eventually we walked back up and had a very good lunch followed by some relaxing times before we headed back. It's a well worth adventure. Highly recommended!! Thanks Brian!

Well worth it. I promise - A long drive from Manuel Antonio but once you get based the windy and rocky roads it is amazing and so worth the drive. The first stop with jumps off the rocks were great for kids and adventurous adults. We then stopped at a beautiful, very secluded beach where would could have stayed all day with perfect waves and pure sand with no shells, rocks or seaweed. Lastly, the waterfall is huge and so worth all the travel. A great, full day excursion and highly recommend if you can pull off a full day.

Beautiful waterfall and excellent guide, Eddie - Eddie was such an excellent guide. He told us about Costa Rica's economy, landscape, culture, etc. At the waterfalls, he showed us where to jump off rocks and made sure we were all safe. Nauyaca was truly incredible. The uphill hike back was a bit tough for me, but Eddie sat with me on a bench to do a short meditation/breathing exercise which helped a lot. Couldn't recommend highly enough!

Waterfall hike and beach visit - We had an amazing day with Eddie! The kids loved the beach, coffee stop and waterfall. Eddie was so informative and kind and we learned so much about Costa Rica. It was a such a fun day - he made sure everyone was safe, cut us fresh fruit at the waterfall and answered all of our questions. Lunch was great too. Thank you for showing us your beautiful country!

Eddie is the best! - Our whole family loved this tour, including our kids ages 22 and 17. Eddie took the trip from great to AMAZING!! He’s funny, friendly, extremely smart and you can tell he loves what he does. And the food was the best traditional Costa Rican meal we had on any of our tours! 10/10….would recommend this tour again. Request Eddie and there’s no way you’ll be disappointed!!

Best Day Ever - Our tour guide Brian was the absolute kindest, most knowledgeable, and easy going guide. At the waterfall, he took my older boys over to the rocks so they could jump into the falls. Afterwards, he played ping pong with my youngest during lunch time. He was very protective of us the entire time; he walked with the kids in the market at Dominical and you could just tell he was keeping a watchful eye over all of us. The tour itself is 10/10. The stops at the beach, the falls, and the market break up the drive there (over an hour for us since we were staying in MA/Quepos area). I definitely recommend stopping at the market area in Dominical. The falls are beautiful. The hike down and back up isn’t bad, there are several places where you can stop and take a breath. A bonus - the bus picked us up and dropped us off at home. We’ve found that option much easier and convenient than trying to navigate the Costa Rican roads and traffic. All in all, this all day tour was our best day in Costa Rica - thank you Brian!

Unforgettable waterfall day in Costa Rica - Eddie was the absolute best guide we have ever had. My daughter did Cliff jumping and I managed the courage to do a smaller jump. Things that we would have never done without Eddie. He also gave us lot of details all day, spent extra time and took us to a beautiful beach and multiple falls. Great day. Thanks Eddie!

Awswome - everything was great from the professional nice Guides to the beautiful stops . Eddie was very nice to accommodate us due to some issues of being picked up 30 min late . But well worth the wait and glad we had this experience. The tour isnt for the weak. .alot of stairs and climbing over some rocks but do able. Wouldn't definitely recommend this tour .
