Real nature and a 10/10 guide - Que bonito! What a beautiful hike to an even more beautiful swimming hole and waterfall. Even though you’re only 30 minutes from PV, this tour transports you into a lush, remote jungle surrounded by mountains. The hike is challenging but worth it. There are plenty of places along the way to stop and enjoy the scenery and listen for birds. The hike ends at a swimming hole with warm water and giant granite rocks to jump from. Laying on the these giant rocks, surrounded by the mountains and the trees, soaking up the sun was one of the highlights of my trip to Mexico. Read the other reviews and you’ll see that the guide, Elian, is what makes this tour really above and beyond. He takes the time to get to know you, points out highlights and loose rocks along the way, and brings so much joy to the whole experience. It’s easy to see that this is a special place that he loves to share with others. He even filled up his backpack with bottles and cans on the hike back to throw away back in town. If you are looking for a truly natural experience in Mexico with a guide who will go out of his way to make it unforgettable, book this tour.

BEST EVER!!! - Absolutely fabulous. The tour guide was knowledgeable , fun and funny (and cute) and we stopped for fresh coconut cocktails, which was the BEST DRINK I'VE EVER HAD! You can only get to these communities by boat so it feels very authentic - not your usual whitewashed tour with someone screaming on the bus asking if we're having a good time. If there were more stars to give, I'd give them.

A perfect day in nature - We were on a cruise that stopped in PV and did this tour. It was an amazing day. Our guide was knowledgeable about the area. The swimming hole was pure magic. It was nice to get out of the city and be in nature with nobody else around. I highly recommend this tour and we would 100% do it again.
