5 star ratingBest day ever Our travel agent booked this tour for us and it was such a fantastic day. So much fun!!! We were picked up punctually at our hotel and told what to expect. Our guides were Damion, Cory and Alejandro. Elian was the photographer. And Macho was our driver. They all need to be mentioned because they really made it such a spectacular day. We were a family of four adults and there was another family with a teenage daughter that wasn’t a great swimmer. The guides made it amazing for all of us. Everyone jumped off the first waterfall. The teen girl was very nervous and the guides encouraged her and helped her get up the nerve to do the jump. At our second stop, there was a platform to jump off of that was higher than the first place. Once again the guides were encouraging and so patient. They showed you exactly how to jump and made it so fun with their daredevil jumps. It was so great watching them have so much fun. It was obvious they love what they do. My personal favorite part was the 20 foot natural rock slide. On this one they require you to wear a life vest. Only three of us chose to do it. At the top of the rock slide two of the guides placed you right where you needed to be. It was a blast. And the guides let you go as many times as you wanted. The third stop was a beautiful waterfall. The jump there was somewhere around 30 feet. Only our two adult kids (daughter and son in law) and the guides jumped off of this one. But we all had a blast. And Elian took amazing family pictures. After this stop we walked up the hill to a restaurant at a fish farm. You had choices on what you wanted to eat. I chose to get the whole tilapia. The meal was amazing. So very tasty. Our last stop was at a beach. Then we were dropped off at our hotel again. I can’t say enough about what a fun and memorable day this was. I’m so very glad we went. Thank you to our amazing guides, photographer and driver for showing us a great time. Their enthusiasm made it a blast.

5 star ratingThe Guides made the experience amazing! I never, ever write reviews. I do read them, however, and now I know why Paddle 9 has such fantastic reviews. Our experience on the Nauyca Waterfall Tour today, with Reese and Roberto (Rasta) as our guides, is certainly worthy of them. These two young men are THE. BEST. and were so fun and professional while keeping safety in mind. They made cliff jumping off a waterfall look so easy...easy enough that I wanted to try it. I've done a lot of crazy things in my life, but I learned today that cliff jumping off Nauyaca was probably one of the crazier things I've done. I also learned it isn't as easy as it looks, but Rasta and Reese made sure things went smoothly, were enjoyable, and most importantly, safe. Huge shout out to Paddle9 and these two amazing guides - Gracias for a wonderful experience!
