We were picked up at our hotel early on time and driven about 45 minutes with no traffic to a location where we then switch cars to an off-road vehicle. We wrote about 20 minutes and then we were able to use restrooms before we started the hike into La Leona. It was gorgeous. A Very very fun family day!
Great and memorable experience be ready to get your stuff wet so pack your stuff in a dry bag. Enjoy!
This was so fun! The hike is technical a lot of slippery rocks so tennis shoes with good traction is a must and being able to have your hands free. It was breathtakingly beautiful. My family loved it and I’m so glad we did it. The ages were between 21-50
Freddy was an awesome tour guide. Water is pretty cold, the hike is not bad but definitely not for someone who doesn’t exercise.
The whole experience was great! Hernan our driver was amazing! He shared a lot of his knowledge of Costa Rica on the drive and was very friendly. Nacho, the guide was also amazing. Very friendly and super helpful on the more difficult parts of the trail. Not a very difficult hike but technical in some areas. All worth it for the payoff at the end!
This was such a fun experience for the whole family. Our driver was so great and we enjoyed the drop off point for lunch. Thecar was also super nice and our driver navigated the traffic so professionally. Also, we had nacho as our guide which we absolutely loved. Though the hike was tough at times he was there cheering us on and supporting us. Overall, I could not have asked for a better day.
Absolutely amazing! Our tour guide Nacho was very knowledgeable and patient when helping when needed. The waterfall was beautiful and the hike was very doable for able-bodied people of all ages. This was a 10/10 and highly recommend for anyone wanting an active swimming/hiking experience :)
Anthony was amazing!! On the way to the waterfall we stopped safely on the side of the road to see monkeys and on the way back to Tamarindo he took us to a beautiful restaurant in Liberia. Anthony told us facts and stories about Costa Rica as well, he loves he country!
The waterfall itself was beautiful but we did not have Nacho lead our tour like the other reviews that had given it 5 stars had and it was not a good experience. We hiked an overgrown trail, getting smacked in the face with branches while our guide speed-hiked and left some of the older folks way in the back. At one point my partner was literally squeezed between 2 other clients in the back of a jeep without seatbelts on a very bumpy dirt road as we were driven back to the main transport after the hike. I almost hit my head on the window. Every other tour we encountered once officially in the park seemed to be having a great time (we didn’t see anyone for a long time on the overgrown trail), it was definitely not worth the money we spent on this excursion. If you’re looking for the absolutely barest minimum, then it’s fine. but if you’re looking for an actual tour, highly recommend booking through another company.
Excursion was good. Guides were excellent. Marianna was extremely knowledgeable and caring. I can’t say sightseeing was amazing. It was pretty but not wow. Getting there and back taking much longer than an excursion itself. Bring water shoes or sandals with traction
