Majestic Nauyaca waterfalls with Paddle9 - DK and his team were fantastic. They were so helpful insuring we had a safe and informative hike to the falls. They led a group of us climb the falls to a perch and then jump into the pools beneath. Unforgettable experience! Absolutely gorgeous falls and pools for swimming. Fruit breaks, ample water and lunch afterwards.

Fantastic company! - Eddie was such a fun and knowledgeable guide! We learned more about Costa Rica in one day and had so much fun expiring waterfalls. He even found us a sloth and her baby Highly recommend this activity and will use this company every time we come back to this beautiful country.

The best family day! - My family (with two teens) loved this day so much! Eddie went above & beyond to make sure everything was perfect! He is a wealth of knowledge about not only Costa Rica, but also all of the flora & fauna. He educated us in a fun way as went through our tour and was so personable and just a great guy in general. We had so much fun at both waterfalls, lunch was absolutely delicious and we stopped for coffee & pastries in a cute surfer town. He made my daughter's day extra special by making an extra stop at a gorgeous beach to pick fresh coconuts and our sweet driver used his machete to cut them open for us. We made the best memories on this tour! Five Star all the way!! Don't hesitate to book this tour!

All of your waterfall dreams, and more! - We originally booked the Uvita and Whale’s Tail tour, but the unseasonable bad weather had us switch to the full day all-inclusive Nauyaca Waterfall and beach town (Dominical) trip instead. We were NOT disappointed!!! Our guide Luis was SO amazing, keeping safety at the forefront, which my mother and I completely appreciated. Luis was personable, knowledgeable, hilarious, and constantly made sure we were both doing well, and were having a great time. Moises our driver was such a great driver in really bad weather conditions, and was very courteous, polite and welcoming. We started at a smaller waterfall where you could jump from low heights and also swim. We then moved directly to Nauyaca Waterfall Nature Park which was stunning. Animals, plants, a garden highlighting lots of Costa Rican plants, tough but safe trails, multiple beautiful waterfalls, multiple swim opportunities, lots of clean bathrooms, big games to play while waiting (like corn hole and jenga) and washing facilities, as well as a great traditional lunch. Even during heavy rains, it was beautiful! We then stopped in at Dominical for some great coffee and the chance to shop. Playa Linda was up next, and it’s a stunning, long beach, even in the rain. We were then taken directly to the front door of our resort. Can’t recommend Luis, Moises and Bright Adventures enough, and would whole-heartedly recommend them to friends and family alike.

Nauyaca Falls - Our guide was awesome! We had a great time and had a full day of activity, and of course the Nauyaca Falls were amazing. The provided lunch was pretty good too! Highly recommend.

You will love this waterfall tour! - This was the best excursion of our trip! Luis was an amazing tour guide, teaching us so much about Costa Rica. The waterfalls were gorgeous and he took our two teenagers to special spots so they could jump in the water (doing it with them to show how to do it safely). We had the best day just talking with him and enjoying all the different spots. And it was nice to have just a small group—our family of four and one other couple which made it a very special experience. I can’t recommend this experience enough! Worth every penny and then some!
