A well planned day!

I never imagined that so much could be done in one day. A very well organized trip that delivers as promised. Excellent and attentive guide and you can tell he knows the area as he knows how to explain every part of the tour.

Breathtakingly beautiful

Great trip! Our guide was super knowledgeable and showed us animals and plants throughout our hike that I would have never seen going alone! I wish we would have spent a little more time in the hot springs but for one day and the amount of things you get to do it’s totally worth it! I recommend taking the 500 and change steps down to the Fortuna waterfall!
