We had an amazing experience with Tony and Henry on our Hot Springs adventure. They explained the local history, plant and wildlife - they even had us get out of the car a few times to check out particular plants and animals! The hot springs and mud bath were so relaxing, and then we had lunch after, which may have been the best part. We were served by a local woman who cooked for us while we were at her house! Finally, Tony and Henry care so much about the locals living in the jungle - they look after and help the local children with school supplies, uniforms and various different things needed throughout the year. Not only was it an amazing tour, but we are also helping remote jungle communities at the same time.

We loved doing the hot springs tour. Our guide was awesome and the hot springs were breathtaking. We loved jumping into the river and sliding down the rock slides. It was a relaxing and great day. Would highly recommend.
