Edgar & the Best Waterfall Experience - Edgar Escobar is the best tour guide and he pays extra attention to providing you the best experience possible. He has extensive knowledge of the area and shows you how local people make their natural resources sustainable. Edgar stopped at a local spot for refreshment and we had some of the best local food imaginable. The food was so flavourful and had incomparable taste to food we were getting at the resort.

Exceptional day at the waterfalls - We had a phenomenal day with Antonio (Tony). He was with us throughout our visit and helped us experience parts of the waterfalls we would never have done our own. He was very knowledgeable about the area and the history of the area. We would definitely want to have him as a guide in the future.

Wonderful day - Our tour guide was knowledgeable and funny. Also very conscientious for our safety in the water. Loved the stop to sample mezcal, honey and coffee. The waterfalls were a magical place. Really enjoyed our lunch with good company.

Waterfalls are... - Waterfalls are spectacular. Our guide, Gustavo, was amazing!
Road to the falls is bumpy, so be prepared for that.

Fantastic day at Bria’s waterfalls! - The waterfalls were amazing! The walk was very doable as I’m a grandma. Our guide Edgar Escobar, was very attentive to all our questions & ensuring that we walked safely on the rocks leading up to the cave & waterfalls. He was thoughtful & knew the best spots for photos. We felt safe swinging the rope into water & we’re glad we did it. The food was great, the visit to learn about the medicinal plants & mezcal tasting was very informative. A tour is only as good as its guide. Edgar spoke very good English. We chose our tour with Lumby based on other reviews & we were not disappointed! This tour is doable for anyone 8 years or older.

Copalitilla Magical Waterfalls Tour with Lumby Tours 10/10 - Tour was fantastic! We chose our tour with Lumby Tours because we read good reviews about the tour guide Edgar Escobar. We were not disappointed! Edgar made our day fantastic! He was punctual, well spoken English attended our every need, answered all questions, gave wonderful information & was our private photographer knowing where to capture the best photos for a memorable trip. A great tour guide makes all the difference !!! - I recommend Edgar with Lumby Tours. Waterfalls were amazing. I felt safe holding the rope & climbing through the cave as Edgar told us where to place our footwork. I did not find this tour required moderate physical ability. I think anyone who has no foot issues & could walk a km would be able to enjoy the hike! There was plenty of delicious food & we were not bothered by bugs or excess heat. Was a perfect day! 10/10

Fun Day with True Oaxacan Touches, Thanks to Roberto! - Roberto was our guide, and he made the day truly memorable. He's friendly, cool, and funny, making sure we were enjoying every moment. We had a few stops at local communities, including one to learn about herbal medicine at a local garden, and another to taste different kinds of mezcal and other local products. This put us in a great mood for the bumpy ride to the waterfalls and the fun experience there. Roberto walked us through the entire waterfall adventure, making sure we felt safe and well taken care of the entire time. Definitely recommend bringing water shoes (but you can buy them at the site too), and life jackets are available for rent too. Highly recommend this tour!

Beautiful experience & excellent tour guide! - A great way to see more of Huatulco’s culture and landscape. The waterfalls were beautiful and our guide, Edgar was excellent! He really made the experience special and fun — great energy and humour and spoke both English and Spanish very well! The time at the waterfalls was beautiful and interesting and special. Definitely recommend going..
That said, here are a few things I wish someone would have posted to better prepare me for the tour:
1) The van was very small for 3 couples plus the driver. Two of the men were over 6ft so this made for an uncomfortable journey each way for them especially
2) There was no mention in the details that you needed to bring or buy water shoes. Also be sure to get a waterproof case for your phone. You can buy on the tour but are priced very high.
3) Be sure to bring at least an additional $700-$1000 pesos per couple. There’s a mandatory lunch of $250 pesos per person that isn’t mentioned in the description & a couple of other stops where $ are not necessarily mandatory but you’ll likely feel the need or want to purchase something.
A beautiful and memorable day, just would have been 5 stars with better details of what the day will actually cost and what to bring with you.
