Honest company with great communication - This is a fantastic tour company. Due to the inclement weather, our ship changed the day it was going to port. The company was great - reached out that they knew of the change and ensured everything would be set for the new date. When we arrived at port the next day, the excursion was cancelled. Again, this had nothing to do with the company, but rather the rainfall earlier had made it dangerous for that excursion, so the entire area was closed to all groups. We received an apology and a very quick refund of our money. I won’t hesitate to book with them in the future!

Thrilling and educational experience - This small group tour was an excellent way to visit one of the areas biggest attractions and learn some local culture along the way. The guide was super friendly and informative. The waterfalls themselves were very adventurous. I would not recommend if you do not like walking up and down hills/steps. However, if you're in a decent amount of shape it should be right for you.

no need to pay for an expensive excursion through the ship - We would do this again. We beat the cruise ship crowds. Just be sure to meet up early otherwise others will have to wait for you and you’ll get caught in the crowds. Jordan was awesome professional outfit. Great family activity.

10/10 recommend - This was such an amazing experience!! Would 10/10 do again. Xander was our guide and was great!! We had a pretty active group and made the hike on no time which allowed us to spend a little extra time jumping and swimming.

Fun Falls - This was a tour that I'm glad I took but would not need to do again. You need to be relatively fit to do the hike up the mountain. Going down the slides was fun but it is very crowded when there are a lot of ships in port. There were 4 ships in port when we went, so the Falls were super-busy and a lot of time was spent waiting to go down slides or jumping down. Note that we didn't see actual waterfalls, it was really sliding down slides. I believe the tour typically goes down 7 'falls', but we only did 5 due to the drought. Our group was 18 people but we had to join another group with the official Fall guides. We had a personal photographer with our group and you could buy the photos on a zip drive for $45. I did not bring that much in cash with me, or any credit cards. If you're a group of friends, its worth buying 1 and splitting the cost. Angel was a fun tour guide. We stopped after the Falls for some local snacks and Angel gave us some rum punch in the van.
