Piranha fishing was fantastic, we arrived at the lake in time for sunrise and saw all the Macaws leaving the palm trees, saw kingfishers, a big cayman and lots of other birds too! Fishing was basic and very fun! I also did Sandoval tour which was great and we saw tarantulas! Sunset cruise was lovely and relaxing.
Very good

Excellent unique tour. Great knowledgeable guide. Spectacular location with Soo many birds and many caiman. Being there in the evening was really nice. The two of us caught one piranha combined, but it was fun to try. I was more impressed just by paddling around marveling at the palms and birds.
