We had the best guide,well worth the money, but here is a tip. Make sure you bring your own toilet paper with you or wipes and sanitizing wipes, and snacks. It was a great experience.

10/10 worth every dollar...pick up & drop off from your hotel, 3 full action packed activities (water tubing, ziplining, horseback riding & each was at least 1 hr long) and there's an authentic costa rican dinner AND finish it off with hot springs...like I said, 10/10 and our guide was AMAZING (knowledgeable, funny, warm & welcoming), I would do it again or anything this tour company has to offer

This was my 2nd trip with both the company as well as Daphne. First we did horse back riding. As an equestrian myself I was very pleased with how well the horses were taken care of and obviously well fed. Great job to the company running them! We then did the tubing. This was not for the faint of heart and was rough. It is rainy season so the rapids were fast! It was a blast but definitely keep the adrenaline going! Next we did the ziplining. The views were out of this world. The team helping truly loved their jobs and it was fun all the way through! Lunch was nearby and had great choices. We ended with the hot springs and volcanic mud. This was the perfect way to relax after a long high adrenaline day! We even saw monkeys when walking to the hot springs! I am exhausted and I'll be sore tomorrow but it was a wonderful experience! Pura Vida!

We went on this and it was amazing. The staff were all very friendly, knowledgeable, and skilled at each location. The horse back riding was very interesting and fun. I had a sassy horse but the ranchers are very skilled and trained and were able to quickly help guide the horse. The zip lining was very thrilling. There were a lot of zip lines at all different distances and heights. Tarzan swinging across platforms and suspension bridges. There is an optional part that is repelling down and rock climbing up. The white water tubing was a lot of fun. My one tip is when your going down the rocks on the rapids make sure to lift your bum up a bit so he don't hit your back off the rocks. I learned after the first bump 😂 the group we did it with was a fun group and I'm pretty sure everyone was laughing at some point during the experience. The volcano hot springs was very rejuvenating and we even tried the mud bath. Such a unique experience. My husband has spider veins really bad on his legs but we noticed after we left that some of them started to clear up a bit. Very healing waters. The lunch was delicious and so accommodating for me, I have celiac. It was buffet style but pretty much everything was gluten free, I was even able to get desserts 🤤 the restaurant was so open, airy, and natural. Lots of natural beauty with plants and no walls just forest surrounding you. The restaurant was Rancho Don Elias. Live entertainment and also bulls located in front to look at or hop on. Our tour guides were Kevin and Diago. There were very informative, kind, friendly, hospitable.

Overall the experience is very good. They will tell you its rushed because of all the activities in a short amount of time. You do not need to bring towels unless you want one for the bus as towels are provided at the two water activities. The ride is long. I thought we would get to see the volcano but we did not which was disappointing. The horse back ride was ok. That is the most rushed and the trail is bumpy i found myself looking down to make sure the horse didnt trip instead of enjoying the view. The ziplining was amazing. The tubing was great but wow its a wild ride-make sure you have the straps to hold and paddle when you get stuck. The spring was basic but nice.
