We had an amazing time. Our host was great and the other family also. We had a blast and would do it again. Love the river and the fact we were able to swim in the river.

This was a great tour that had activities for everyone in our family. Nice sightseeing in the forest at a few points, some swimming in Rio Mameyes, and then a few hours at the beach with great food choices from the kiosks. We lucked out with Raphael as our guide. He is knowledgeable, welcoming, and tells a good corny joke. You never know how the weather will be but we had clear skies and few other visitors. The other guests on the tour were also very nice. Just a perfect day.
