Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable and passionate about the history and culture of the land. The mud baths themselves were incredibly relaxing, and there was even a plunge pool to cool down afterwards with! Also great free shuttle service from the centre of town - they even arranged me to be picked up from my hostel. Overall amazing experience, staff amazing, would definitely recommend.

The walk was well set out and so interesting. Amazing contrast from the rock and boiling pools to the rainforest walk in the middle! The mud soak was really good and the water so lovely. The mineral pool was also good but you do need to be careful about the sulphur in the water with your eyes. They have eyedrops if you have trouble. I recommend hiring their towels and swimmers just to save the washing as it took a bit to get the smell out of our swimmers.

Well worth visiting and an enjoyable few hours. Opted for the morning slot with a local guide which was a good call as he was so knowledgeable of the Geothermal Springs. If we did this on our own we would not have learnt anything.
