This was a fantastic outing. Our guides, Ken and Corry, were knowledgeable, fun and encouraging, the latter with respect to some of the waterfall jumps. We had a great day with them, had a ton of fun and learned along the way about Costa Rican culture and natural beauty. Overall, a great experience.

A short hike to the waterfall, followed by swimming and cliff jumping from various heights. My husband did the lower falls jump and loved the adrenaline rush, while I opted for a smaller jump in the upper falls. Rasta (Roberto) and Ismael were excellent guides and really made us feel comfortable and safe. Ismael also gave us some great historical background on our car ride to the falls, and he and Roberto showed us how to make organic clay masks at the falls. They were the best! Also, we got to birdwatch afterwards while eating lunch, which was delicious and could be made to accommodate a vegetarian diet.

The group was very professional, we were well taking care of. It was a wonderful trip, they paid attention to us individually. It was actually the highlight of our trip. Thank you

Paddle 9 are phenomenal. Ismael, Alejandro, Flaviola, & Mambo were kind, fun, informative, caring, and made us feel incredibly supported all along the way. They also got me up the waterfall safely to have the jump experience of a lifetime. Elian was an excellent photographer at a very reasonable price, capturing every moment for you without constantly reaching for your phones, and Gumi the driver navigated those windy roads like a champ. Highly recommend this experience to everyone... the waterfall is breathtaking beyond words, and Paddle 9 are the only crew to do it with.

Ariell was absolutely fantastic!! We were able to see a sloth and toucans at the same on one tree! He has amazing energy and absolutely loves what he does!

The guys were amazing. Very friendly and offered great care and experience! They also taught us a lot about Costa Rica and Quepos! The waterfalls were incredible! Thank you Guys!

Amazing experience, but their hotel pickup list is not up to date. Guides were amazing and definitely made the trip despite the transportation hiccup.

Very fun experience, with kind and nice guides. Highly recommend. They are very helpful and always looking to make you feel comfortable.

Our family did a guided tour of Manuel Antonio with Corry and Alejandro and it was outstanding!! Phenomenal guides with so much knowledge about the wildlife and ecosystems. Extremely friendly and went out of their way to make sure our family had an unforgettable experience!

This tour was so good, beyond our expectations. Ismael and Damion we amazing guides and they were both so knowledgeable, we not only had fun but learned so many new things. This is the only company I would recommend to tour this waterfall.

My kids and I had a fantastic time with Paddle 9 today at Nauyaca Waterfall. Despite challenging conditions with tons of water from recent heavy rains, our tour guides Ken, Corey, and their team, showed us a great time. My kids aged 8 and 12 said this was one of their favorite activities in Costa Rica. We swim under the waterfall, had mud masks, and ate a tasty lunch of arroz con pollo. The tour was very professional and informative. Thanks for a great time!!

My husband and I did the Paddle Board Mangrove tour and had a blast! Disclaimer: You’ll see in the pics that the water is brown - that’s because Quepos had experienced unusually heavy rainfall that week, but that didn’t stop us from enjoying the wonder of the mangroves (and it was extra motivation to not fall in! Lol) If you really want to experience the mangroves, the Paddle Board tour is where it’s at. We went through some canals (where boats don’t have access to), hung out in the heart of the mangroves and ate fruit, ducked under branches, and saw lots of wildlife: Crabs, snails, lizards, and white face monkeys! DK & Ismael were our guides - they’re awesome! They are very knowledgeable, passionate about the environment, and super fun to hang out with. They took lots of pics for us and were also super patient whenever I was unsteady or slow moving.

My wife and I had an amazing time touring the Nauyaca waterfalls through Paddle9 tours!! Our guides were DK and Ken and they were so much fun! They made the car ride to the falls a breeze with all their fun facts and history of Costa Rica. (Plus their choice of tunes was on point) The hike to the waterfalls isn’t bad at all, they even found a poisonous dart frog, and explained what walking trees were. Then they provided an amazing lunch after the falls, honestly it was so good! We highly recommend this tour and if you’re lucky enough to get the DK/Ken combo you’re in for an added bonus.

ABSOLUTELY PERFECT . Couldn’t have asked for a better experience of nature with the best of the best tour guides . Not to forget the photographer is spectacular and fair if you want to purchase the photos . I’ve added my favorite photos to the review ! I don’t remember everyone’s name but Corey and Reese were 2 of the 5 .

All I can say is WOW! So worth it! And the Paddle 9 staff were fantastic! The lunch was so good. The waterfall was so beautiful! Thank you Reese, Roberto, Cory, Paparazzi, and Don Carlos!
