Jump out of your comfort zone into the waters - We had an amazing experience with th guides Shanha and Jorge and all the other guests taking part in the tour. It is a once in a lifetime experience although I would consider doing it again. :-) It was a lot of fun with all the people joining us, thanks for taking care of us and offering us this special experience. It was well organized and the food offered was amazing. Thank you!

Spectacular Waterfall and Cenote - A great experience: 1) Paddling 4 km upriver in a pangas (traditional long, narrow wooden boat). The current isn’t very strong, except at one location where it is necessary to exit the pangas so the guide and boat guide can pull it past some rapids, 2) the waterfall itself: spectacular. A large rock in the middle of the river is the perfect vantage point to photograph the falls (good footwear is essential as the rock can be slippery and has uneven surfaces), 3) the boat ride down river, where riding through the mild rapids is exhilarating, 4) a swim in a cave/cenote, with a very comfortable water temperature (note: it is mandatory to wear a life jacket while swimming), and 5) an excellent lunch at a local restaurant before heading back to Ciudad Valles. Beautiful scenery along the river: multiple smaller waterfalls, cliffs, cacti, and interesting rock formations caused by water erosion. My only complaint: the tour was described as Spanish and English. 85% of the commentary was in Spanish. In my experience, on bilingual tours, commentary and questions/answers are made in both languages, so everyone is able to participate and understand to the same degree. Not the case here. Not a huge issue, but it would have been nice to better understand some of the guide’s observations and commentary.
