Amazing guided tour through the rainforest

5.00Isaac and Andres did a phenomenal job guiding me through the rainforest to all the different waterfalls and thermal pools. The peacefulness and serenity of the property was amazing! Easily one of the best tours I have ever done.
Great experience

5.00We were given walking sticks and we hiked through the rainforest where our guide pointed out different plants and animals. We saw birds, a sloth, and a tiny viper. We had a snack at the waterfalls then headed back and swam in the pools and used the mud to exfoliate our skin. Afterwards we returned to the lodge where we showered and had a delicious lunch. This place helps preserve the rainforest and is used for research observational studies. Beautiful place; we would definitely go back. Cute gift store too
