Natural pool

Amazing ride, great views, great tour guide. The natural pools were amazing, the ride up mountains was so fun.

So glad we did this excursion!

This excursion was so much fun. We had super guides with exceptional driving skills! They were kind and very informative and we enjoyed their knowledge of Costa Rica. The views were stunning and the highlight was swimming under the falls in the cool pool. The lunch was amazing and delicious! A great place to stop and enjoy the view while eating authentic local food. This is a four hour tour and worked well for seniors like us. We got to see more of the country. They took good care of us! Just a TIP if you’re getting picked up in Jaco. The instructions say to meet at the Al Frente Subway restaurant on Pastor Diaz. Adventure Tours is actually across the street from Subway behind the gym. They need to change their instructions on the website to avoid confusion. Have fun…we did!

The guides were great lots of photo ops

I didn’t give it a 5 Because the picture shows that all four of us could be in the same vehicle but when we arrived they put us in two separate vehicles which was ok but not what we expected

Awesome

We had such a great time taking the ATV's to the waterfalls. So beautiful! Our hosts were super sweet and showed us an awesome bar on the mountain and delicious lunch afterward.
