5.00Loved the trip to the waterfall, and was surprised they took us up to the top too. The Guide Hernan knows a lot, and was very kind in answering all the different questions I had, like the Hay Bales that I thought were huge marshmellos we saw on the way there. Liberia was a very nice stop to eat afterwards. There is a Guanacaste Tree right in the middle of the road! It's huge! Overall, I would love to come back and see where else Hernan can take us, I enjoyed the ride and the destinations.

5.00If you are staying in Guanacaste, do not miss the Llanos del Cortez and Liberia city tour. It is the perfect blend of natural beauty and local culture. The waterfall at Llanos del Cortez is a stunning, easily accessible oasis with a sandy beach and refreshing pools that are perfect for swimming. We were even lucky enough to spot howler monkeys in the trees right by the falls! Continuing into Liberia, the "White City," was a great change of pace. Walking through the historic streets to see the colonial architecture provides a real feel for authentic Costa Rican life. We capped off the day with a delicious traditional casado and some local coffee shopping. This trip is a fantastic way to experience adventure, wildlife, and history all in one day. Pura Vida!

Everything was perfectly organized, and from start to finish it was fun, relaxing, and memorable. Llanos del Cortés is absolutely stunning — the waterfall is powerful and beautiful, surrounded by nature, and it’s the perfect place to swim, take photos, and just enjoy Costa Rica’s natural beauty. It was definitely one of the highlights of our trip. The visit to Liberia was also great. We enjoyed learning more about the local culture, history, and everyday life of the city. Our guide was friendly, knowledgeable, and made the tour entertaining while also sharing interesting facts and stories. Overall, this tour exceeded our expectations. It’s perfect for groups of friends looking for a mix of nature, culture, and a great time. We would absolutely do it again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting Guanacaste!
