About This Tour
Come and get your fill of adventure. We start a few kilometers up the mountain with a short 20 min hike through the rainforest to our starting point. The first descent starts on the side of a waterfall, so that you get to practice the process without juggling the water – at least until the second waterfall. In total, there are 8 rappelling descents down waterfalls, a handful of smaller cascades that we carefully climb down, and some hiking through the waterway between rappels. Prepare to get wet on this tour – it is guaranteed! Part-way through we’ll pause to enjoy a pre-packed snack en route and enjoy the purely natural surroundings.
