Manuel Antonio Private Tours

My family and I had an incredible experience with Paddle 9 and their waterfall tour. The guides made everyone feel safe the entire time leading up to some really fun jumps off beautiful waterfalls. It was so much fun, we would love to go again next time in CR.

A great time This waterfall tour was a great experience for our family of four (two 50 year old adults, a 14 year old and an 8 year old). The tour involves stops at three different waterfall locations, lunch a a tilapia farm restaurant, and a beach stop with free time for swimming. Our guides Reese and Ishmael were outstanding. They were able to work with people of all skill levels to enjoy the experience. You do need to have moderate mobility for this activity because there is walking on rocks on some inclines, but our guides were fantastic about helping everyone navigate safely. They encouraged everyone to try the jumps but did not pressure you. If you don't want to jump or slide, you can enjoy wading and floating in the waterfall pools. During the drives between locations, our guides provided interesting information about Costa Rica and answered questions from the group. At the waterfalls, they also treated us to acrobatics shows by climbing up the rocks and doing flips into the pools. Clearly they love their country and their jobs!

Highly recommend this guided tour To have the best experience at Manuel Antonio National Park, Paddle 9 is a wonderful option for a guided tour. Our guide Roberto was so pleasant, engaging, and amazing at locating wildlife. We never would have found all the animals he was able to spot on our own. He provided a lot of interesting information and using a spotting scope, allowed us to see and photograph many different animals.
