Don’t Just Take Our Word For It!

5 star ratingAdventurous and very fun day! What a terrific adventure! My family of 5 went on the full day waterfall adventure with Paddle 9. The guides Ken and Gabriel were super friendly and prioritized safety and fun. It was a wonderful adventure visiting 3 different spots with options to jump from waterfalls if we chose to do so. We also stopped at a charming beach which was a nice bonus. We made wonderful memories!

5 star ratingChasing waterfalls in Costa Rica! I had the funnest time on this tour with our guides, Ariel, DK, and our driver Carlos. We received some educational information about quepos, the palm trees, and more as we traveled to our waterfalls. I had the opportunity to do two cliff jumps with lots of support and patience from Ariel and DK (sorry I was a scaredy cat) and we did a natural water slide into the waterfall! It was such a fun tour, and would recommend so much. We also visited a tilapia farm and had local tilapia for lunch. If you’re looking for an active and engaging tour, you won’t be disappointed with this one!

5 star ratingUnforgettable experience!! ☺️✨ The best tour I've done during my two week trip to Costa Rica! The full day tour includes visiting three beautiful waterfalls, lots of cliff jumping and two natural waterslides. The included pick-up is very convenient, and the lunch provided was delicious! The guides Ken and Alejandro were really funny and helpful, and made the experience even more enjoyable ❤️ They were supportive and did their job perfectly, ensuring that everyone was safe and having fun! This is the company to book with for a day full of adventure and excitement! I recommend you to book this trip if you'd like to have a truly unforgettable holiday! 😉
