“Was a great experience, and Ryan was the best and most energetic host/ tour guide. The experience was unlike any other I’ve experienced, from the refreshing waters to the natural water slides and cannon balls off of big rocks. Make sure to wear sunscreen and shoes you don’t mind absolutely beating up and getting wet & Sandy. 10/10 experience. Make sure you use the bathroom and empty your system before you do this type of adventure LOLL. Ps: BUY THE WATERPROOF PHONE CASES”

“The entire trip was authentic, invigorating, and adventurous. Jesus picked us up in his intrepid van, Maria, on time and we were comfortably on our way. The van ride to the hiking spot was its own adventure. The hike out to the waterfall was an advanced hike, and it recommend good grip water shoes. I did it in running shoes and I was fine, but I knew it could have been better. This was followed by lunch and a less adventurous ride back. We were all done by 3:30.”
