Don’t Just Take Our Word For It!

5 star ratingExpert & Knowledgeable guides led us on an Epic Waterfall Tour This is a spectacular tour of gorgeous waterfalls with opportunities to do some jumps and slides if you are up for it. The guides, Cory & Ismael, were top notch. They are safety oriented. I would never have done the jumps & slides without their expert guidance. They also are very knowledgeable about Nature & Costa Rica and shared many fun facts with us on our journey. We also had lunch at a Tilapia Farm that was absolutely scrumptious- one of the best meals I have had in Costa Rica. At the end of the day, we visited a gorgeous beach. The ocean was wonderful and really put me in the mood to kick back & relax in Costa Rica.

5 star ratingFull day waterfall tour This was mine and my husbands first trip to Costa Rica and we decided to do the waterfall tour! Corry and Ismael were hands down the best tour guides!!! I was a bit nervous about jumping off the cliffs but Ismael was great! They were both extremely informative about Quepos!

5 star ratingGreat tour company. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️We had an unforgettable experience with Paddle 9 Adventures in Quepos, Costa Rica! We booked three activities with them: a waterfall excursion and a guided tour through Manuel Antonio National Park. Both were incredible!The waterfall tour was thrilling and perfectly organized, allowing us to enjoy Costa Rica’s natural beauty up close. The guided tour of Manuel Antonio was equally fantastic, and we saw an abundance of monkeys, sloths, and other local wildlife that our guide pointed out with expert eyes.Special shoutout to Reese, Ariel, Corey, and especially Gummi! Each guide was exceptional—highly professional, safety-focused, and attentive to every detail, ensuring we had an amazing time. They were fantastic with answering questions, making us feel safe, and ensuring we got the most out of each experience.If you’re looking for outdoor adventures in Quepos, I would highly recommend Paddle 9 Adventures. They truly went above and beyond to make our trip memorable!
