  • Some tips to making an amazing time even better!

    The experience was amazing! The mud is more clay-like expect to get really dirty! I would also not recommend this activity for people who have any mobility issues or wouldn’t be able to keep up with a fast paced hike. It’s hard to stay steady on the trail and water shoes are honestly not the best footwear to choose. Beyond those obstacles that should be obvious when hiking in a rainforest; the experience was perfect. My 16 year old son and I had the best time helping and supporting each other on the trail. Tidy and the other tour guide were so knowledgeable and helpful, definitely keeping safety in mind the entire time. They didn’t leave anybody behind, while thoroughly supporting everyone throughout the activity. They even share some info on how we could do this type of activity on our own; however we will stick to the experts and book again soon. Viator has not let us done yet!

    This was absolutely a trip highlight. Orlando and Saito were excellent guides. The rainforest was beautiful. The rock slides and cliff jumps were an excellent little adrenaline rush. Highly highly recommend!
