We had a fantastic hike and tour with Christopher. Beautiful reserve, and a great experience overall.
Informative about nature, not active

Francisco is great and really knowledgeable about all birds and trees and fruits and flowers and history and if you want to be educated on nature you will love this. We wanted more of a heart-pumping nature hike (since the description said you should be in good health) but it was a leisurely stroll with narration of everything in the forest. Beautiful scenery just a little slow-paced.
Response from Host, Mar 2022
It was a pleasure serving you. I really appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback and being so open with us. The guides (Francisco) work hard to provide as much as possible information and details during each activity that we do. your review reaffirms it.. So, we try to open the tour for all the people and share as much as possible, next time we will try to do more harder for you and train at the same time that you enjoy the scenery. Thanks for your kind words and we look forward to seeing you again. Pura Vida
