Had a great time on this hike with our friendly, kind, and experienced guide Eric. It's in one of the less-frequented areas by travelers which gave us the opportunity to interact with a lot of native residents and experience a different side of Costa Rica. The path gets tricky at some places but it's quite worth it for the striking views on the trail and at the top, and also a picturesque waterfall on the way down. Lunch was delicious as well. Wonderful experience all around

I didn't know what to expect initially and it turned out to be an amazing experience. I traveled solo for my birthday and wanted to try hiking for the first time. Eric was very patient with me and guided me through the hike. I felt very safe and comfortable during my hike. I was happy to find out it was a private hiking tour as I was able to go at my own pace without holding anyone back. This has definitely made me want to do more hikes on my own here back in Texas. I definitely recommend 1000% with Eric, he's definitely knowledgeable and notable hiker. He taught me how to place my feet and hike throughout the tour, which I am very grateful for it. I learned a lot. If you're worried about communication, his English is great, and we were able to have great conversations throughout the hike. Oh, he took some great picture as well. He knows all the angles to get the perfect pic!

This was a fantastic hike with great views along the way. Eric was a great guide that was very knowledgeable with the San Jose metropolitan area as well as the trail itself. He was always there to give us a heads up on where to step and educated us on the different type of plants we saw. He also brought some snacks and water for us as well, thank you. The lunch was at a very good local Costa Rican restaurant. The hike was about 4 hours in total with a few stops along the way. While the trail wasn’t difficult, there were some stretches that weren’t easy. Bring proper foot wear and you should be good. If you’re looking for something that many Ticas do and gives you a great view of San Jose, Costa Rica, this tour is for you.
