A waterfall hike and swim may follow, weather and trail conditions permitting.

“Fabricio was amazing. The tour was informative and fun. We were able to take our time and enjoy the plants, trees and wildlife. We asked lots of questions and got lots of laughs out of Fabricio. We made chocolate bars, hot cocoa, coffee, and had a sip of wine. We were given fresh pineapple from the farm that was so delicious. We walked down to the waterfall even though the path down to the bottom was washed out. The toucans and birds were everywhere while we made our chocolate. Then he recommended a restaurant for lunch and ended up joining us. It was so personal and really enjoyable.”
