A must do tour in Guanacaste, Costa Rica. - We had the best experience with Leona Waterfall Adventure Tours and Bernie. He made booking very easy. Prior to the adventure Bernie explained everything really well and sent us off with a highly trained, English speaking, and knowledgeable tour guide. He made us feel very safe. The scenery and jungle were beautiful. Our guide pointed out lots of wildlife and nature. The waterfall was refreshing and a wonderful experience to swim in. Afterwards we were served the freshest fruit. Would highly recommend this company!

Our experience was great!... - Our experience was great! We had three kids with us, ages 12,10, and 7. Our guide would ask us if we wanted to go difficult routes and we said yes! He was patient, safe, and always helped the kids first. We would do it again!

Amazing Tour with the Best Guide! - The waterfall was stunning, but our tour operator and guide made the experience truly special. They were incredibly knowledgeable, super friendly, and patient with our whole family. The hike was exciting, water refreshing, and the tour ended with the best pineapple I've ever had in my life (no joke). Highly recommend!!

It’s not the destination, it’s the journey - We had such a great hike to Leona Falls. It was a challenging hike but so worth it at the end. Probably one of the best hikes I have been on. The waterfall was amazing. Our guide, Steven did a very good job to make sure that we were safe going through the caves and climbing up the trails.

Best experience ever 💕 - After considering every activity we booked for our week long stay, this was at the absolute top of our list. I️ cannot recommended this enough. If you only book one excursion, book this one. We had the time of our lives. Our guide was amazing and let us choose the easy or adventurous way. We chose adventure and were not disappointed. He set the bar very high for the remainder of our week in Costa Rica. Thank you so much for helping us create these lifelong memories. Pura Vida!!

Awesome Experience - Berny (owner), Fabio (driver) and Rinaldo (guide) were all Great. They were friendly, sociable, humble and knowledgeable. Rinaldo was patient, took his time and kept me safe by holding my hand on the rocky trail to get to the waterfall.

10/10 experience with Bernie and our guide Ramses - We hiked to the waterfall and back. I was wondering if my 7 y old could cope. Ramses our guide made it easy and exciting for her explaining the flora and fauna along the way. On the way back we also asked if he could take a shorter route and he did. Overall a really smooth experience for the family
