not as advertised - this trip was enjoyable however don't be deceived on advertisements and costs. I spent many hours looking through similar tours. some states that it goes to a cigar factory and some to a natural reserve. all are slightly different. after many hours and consulting my travel partner we chose the cigar factory included but not the natural park. turns out that our first stop was at a museum. this was unpaid and we had to pay extra. since we were in the vehicle with another family we had the choice to either pay or sit in the heat and wait on the other family. we did go to the cigar factory and the falls. we then went to the park which once again we needed to pay extra and were in a situation to sit and wait or pay. they left the monkeys for the end of the day as the highlight. we went by boat to the island. the boat stopped and we threw some bananas and monkeys came. we were there for a total of 2 minutes. they then brought us to another island were there were different monkeys. again Maybe 3 minutes tops. in total the highlight of the day lasted 5 minutes and was disappointing. in saying that I have to say our tour guide was kind and informative and I enjoyed the long ride home comparing my home culture with his Mexican culture. his company and the drive was better than the tourist trap we had fallen in for the day. He even stopped and bought some taco supplies and pinnaple juice for us. he was great but the product he represented was disappointing.
