Women driving Buggys
Christine_C, April 2026
Us six women took the 4 hour tour with Pepe and had an absolutely great time. The scenery across the mountain and through the jungle was beautiful. Our first stop was a waterfall and it did not fail to impress. Pepe anticipated our needs and willingly took pictures, stopped a couple times so we could enjoy the scenery, use the facilities, and purchase refreshments. He made sure we were safe and comfortable throughout. I would highly recommend this tour as we laughed and thoroughly enjoyed every minute.

Fantastic views and experience
nicolefI8994TL, April 2026
We had a blast. Pepe was fantastic. He did a great job giving directions and showing us the beautiful views. The hike to and from waterfall was small and perfect. Bring water shoes. It is dusty but they provide goggles which I would recommend wearing. You could bring an extra if you don’t want dusty face. But it still was perfect.

What a fun day!
Lori_M, April 2026
This was such a fun tour! It was raining when we started but it stopped part way through. It worked for us because it kept the dust down. Our guide, Danny, was full of information about what we were seeing. We saw a beautiful waterfall and stopped at a lovely place for lunch/refreshments with a magnificent view. The food here was some of best we had while visiting. Highly highly recommend!
