La aventura del Río Celeste

Great tour. Loved the guide (Brandon). Food was good. Comfortable van. Really enjoyed it. Oh and extra marks to Eco for supplying us with many snacks and water!

Beautiful blue water! Amazing to learn why the water is blue. The trail was very muddy, so you have to be in pretty good shape to do this one, but we thought it was worth the adventure.

The hike was fantastic! Rio Celeste is beautiful and definitely a sight to see!

This tour was fantastic. Our guide, Steven, was great. We will definitely recommend Costa Rica to everyone we know and for sure the Rio Celeste tour.

It was a nice hike, not too strenuous, with a beautiful view. We equally enjoyed the commentary from the guide who taught us about what we were seeing along the drive to and from the hike.

Our tour guide Andrey was FANTASTIC. He was very knowledgeable and personable. He helped my wife on the tougher parts of the tour and pushed her to keep going when it seemed impossible to climb another step. Everyone in our group loved him. The hike was challenging but the views were worth it. The local lunch was great.

The scenery alone was worth this hike. The hike was a little strenuous for my husband and I but we survived and got some great exercise. Gain. The tour guide was great and very knowledgeable. The lunch afterwards was very tasty.

This was a wonderful tour. We had a wonderful guide who shared a lot of information about Costa Rica's industries and the various towns we passed through on the way to Rio Celeste. On the way to the park, we stopped to see a beautiful Kapok tree and several small tree frogs. It was a long drive to the park but worth it. We didn't note from our itinerary that the drive would be so long. The ground was somewhat muddy for the hike, but we were fine with our hiking boots. We saw several beautiful birds and were able to take some great pictures. The waterfall was beautiful. After the hike, we had lunch at a restaurant just outside the park. The food was typical for Costa Rica (casado) consisting of a meat, beans and rice. The fish smelled wonderful. The setting of the restaurant was also very nice.

Gabriel and his driver were warm and knowledgeable. The driver even found a sloth in a tree for us! The tour showed us a completely new experience and we saw interesting birds. Gabriel never rushed us and was very engaged and showed us all the sites. Our lunch break was also very good.

This was a grueling hike: very steep but we made it and our kids did too. It was lovely to see the river, the lunch after was amazing and the guide stopped before to show us this massive tree dedicated to one of Costa Rica's presidents. It was a really fun day!!

Very knowledgeable Naturalist guide and driver. They spotted many species of animals and birds. The tour was customized to our stamina level which we appreciated.

Great hike with a beautiful ending!

Although, a very tiring tour, the experience was amazing! Carlos our tour guide was awesome! He is extremely knowlegeable and we learned so much from him. His personality was also great and made us feel like part of his family. He even took pictures of us and was able to email them to me. Thank you, Carlos!

This was an awesome tour. I think that it should be mentioned in the tour description that HIKING BOOTS and rain boots should be worn. There were many people with sneakers who did not understand the toughness of the tour and were very unprepared with what they wore. I was unsure what to wear, but I was able to rent boots before the tour that saved me. Other than that it was great!

A very challenging trip that turned out to be a fantastic experience due to our outstanding guide Walter. Be prepared for a long hike but at the end you'll be well rewarded.

Loved this tour. The River was amazing. Our tour guide made sure we saw the blue water! The lunch was wonderful. Delicious! It was also lovely to look at. My friends enjoyed the photo of it when I got back!

This was a great tour. Pablo was awesome. With 4 young people on the tour, he saw the opportunity to take a harder trail, which we all loved. He was great at spotting wildlife and explaining everything around us. Although our muscles hurt by the time we were done, the adventure was well worth a little pain.

This was a challenging hike, through mud and steep slippery inclines, but an AMAZING journey up the volcano with the prize of seeing the beautiful blue Rio Celeste at the top and the waterfall. Also, it was fabulous to be able to enjoy the hot springs without crowds. This was a fabulous hike. We were the only ones on this tour!!

This tour was fantastic. Exactly what we were looking for. A great hike and awesome views for great pictures.

We had a great adventure and the guide was very sympatic and interesting. We have discovered a lot of things about the environment and the wildlife of the rain forest.
