Highlights
  • Jaco - The Tour de la Paz begins in the mountains directly behind Jacó, and continues roughly half the distance to the peak of the mountain to a beautiful 35ft. waterfall (Cascada del Zorro) – a perfect spot to get a little wet and take some photos.

Just beyond the crest of the mountain lies a beautiful mirador offering views of the ocean playing against sands as far south as Manuel Antonio Park, as far west as the Nicoya Peninsula, and as far north as the port city of Puntarenas.

  • Catarata Bijagual - Continuing along the mountain tops and through the rainforest, you arrive at the second, incredible waterfall of your tour with us - the exciting Pura Vida waterfall.

Surrounded by lush rainforest and crested by a natural rock platform, thrill-seeking adventurers may jump over 15 feet down into the crisp, refreshing waterfall pool below. The sounds of rushing water, coupled with the call of exotic birds combine to make this visit to the Pura Vida Falls a truly Costa Rican experience that you will remember for years to come.

To end the tour, we ride the loop that takes us right to the edge of the famous Carara National Park, and then begin our decent back to Adventure Tours in Jaco.

Amazing jungle ride - We had an amazing time on our tour. Christian did a great job at guiding us and stopping along the way to take in the amazing scenery and teach us about Costa Rica. The waterfall was very refreshing after the first half of our ride. The staff was very friendly and professional getting all of our paperwork in order quickly and easily so we could get to our tour.

Fun way to spend 3 hours - Four members of my family (wife, 2 teens 17-19, and me) did this activity yesterday afternoon. Our guide was Kiko, who was great. The ride is about an hour to get to the waterfall, then the hike is very short to get to the waterfall. Plenty of time to take pictures at the falls. There was an option to stop somewhere along the way to eat/drink something, but we skipped this as we had just eaten lunch. We took a slightly different path back to the reception area (the last 10-15 minutes anyway). My family had never been on an ATV before, so this got a kick out of this excursion. Good time!

Fun 4wheeling with Naron - Naron was our 4 wheeler guide. He did a great job of taking us through all sorts of terrain, giving us an overview of the mountain range and down to the waterfall. We had a great time swimming underneath the waterfall had an incredible lunch with spectacular views. I would highly recommend this adventure.

Amazing Tour! - This tour was amazing, and Jose and Justin were great guides. This company is very professional and was very responsive to any questions/inquiries that we had leading up to the tour. We stopped at a waterfall to swim and take pictures and also stopped at a small, off of the path, restaurant, which had awesome food and smoothies! This is a definite must do!

Amazing ATV tour - Amazing day with our family of 5. Professional staff. ATV’s were in great shape for tour ATVs. Our guide was very safe and helped us spot Toucans and a poison dart frog along the way. We also stopped ant Rancho Shadday on the mountainside for empanadas. Oddly enough I wanted to go to this place for lunch because I heard amazing things about it. It did not disappoint. Back down the mountain through so mud and a river. My whole family was laughing and smiling. I could not rate this tour company any higher than a 5 or I would have.
