Excellent tour of La Leona Falls - Our guide Freddie was the best part of the experience and we had him all to ourselves. The hike to the waterfall is amazing and the swimming to the falls is exhilarating and adventurous!

Fun adventure - What a treat it was to make this hike happen given the last minute booking. The guide was fun and caring and made sure to help me with my Spanish. Juan is a gem and an amazing guide that makes sure that you love the hike and falls

¡Magnífico! - The hike was terrific, the guides were awesome! The wait at the waterfall…not so much, but it was no one’s fault. I guess that is what happens with holiday crowds. The current was so strong that the guides had to pull people from the water to get in the cave to see the waterfall. They worked so hard - they deserved medals! (And/Or big tips!) The hike was challenging for this 62 year old woman, but Joshua and Josi (sp?) were so helpful making sure we didn’t trip and fall. The river was beautiful and provided a stunning backdrop! I think this was my favorite excursion of the trip! What a way to end our week in Costa Rica!

An unforgettable experience - Getting in to the final waterfall is definitely an experience and I would recommend you have a better then couch potato fitness level The staff was so kind and helpful. We felt safe leaving out car and belongings with them when we departed. I’d give this experience a 10/10 even though we waited about an hour at the final waterfall as there were many other groups ahead of us

Awesome Time on the Adventure Hike - We went on the La Leona Waterfall Adventure Hike. There were three of us from Washington state ages; 59, 66 and 86. Axel was our tour guide, and he was amazing. Safety was his top priority, as he ensured that all three of us were safe and enjoying the adventure. We did not make it to the waterfall due to the high-water level from recent rains, but some others did brave the rapids. We did have a great time crossing the river, hiking in the jungle and adventuring. Huge shout out to Axel the Super Guide!

Great adventure trip - The waterfall is beautiful but difficult to reach if it has rained in the previous days. Our guide Freddy was very good and we really enjoyed the walk in the dry forest and crossing the rivers.

No good thru this tour company. - Guide did not speak English as advertised. Skipped beginning & end because “too many people”. 3-4 hr hike was around an hour.
