Comments

"Excellent tour...the guides were fun, experienced, professional and knowledgeable."

"Mono and Jonathan were two of the greatest people we met, my girlfriend and I were lucky to be on a tour alone with them and they showed us so many different plants and birds in the area it was amazing. The guys were hilarious, and even though the water was low we still had a blast!"

"Best day of my Dad's life he said!! Everything was flawless and scenery he said was out of this world. "

"great experience."

"We loved it, but it seemed like a Class III rather than Class II. Jorge and Marcus were outstanding guides. Jorge was an interesting guide as he knows a lot about the country and the culture. Marcus saved my life when I fell out of the raft. The food was outstanding at the end of the trip. "
