Get up close with sloths, swim at a waterfall, enjoy coffee and chocolate, and savor a delicious local lunch. Many guests describe this as the highlight of their trip.
We are a local, family-run company based in Guanacaste, established in 2008 by Carlos Méndez. Our guides are native to the area, and the farmers and rainforest trackers you'll meet are our neighbors. Your booking directly supports local families.
We offer pickup from hotels throughout Guanacaste, including Liberia, Coco, Hermosa, Papagayo, Flamingo, Brasilito, and Tamarindo.
Experience a refreshing swim at the Llanos de Cortés waterfall, sample organic coffee and chocolate produced by local families, and search for sloths, toucans, and frogs alongside an expert naturalist guide who will help you capture close-up photos. A traditional Tico lunch is also included.
Enjoy easy walks at a leisurely pace, with no sense of being rushed. This tour is perfect for families with children of all ages, couples, and nature enthusiasts.
Good to know: This is a full-day tour, lasting between 8 to 10 hours depending on your hotel's location. During the rainy season (September to November), swimming at the waterfall is subject to water conditions. We will inform you in advance if conditions are unsafe.
