About this experience

This tour is perfect for travelers who want to escape the crowds and discover one of Costa Rica’s most beautiful hidden gems. Unlike more commercial stops, we take you into a private nature reserve where you can enjoy the Blue Falls in peace and connect with nature in an authentic way. With a small group and a knowledgeable local guide, you’ll learn about the area's volcanic origins, rich biodiversity, and the minerals that give the waterfalls their vibrant turquoise color. You’ll walk along forest trails, visit several stunning waterfalls, and—if conditions allow—swim in the refreshing natural pools beneath the falls. To complete the day, enjoy a delicious local lunch in the mountain village of Bajos del Toro. This is more than just sightseeing — it’s a genuine Costa Rican adventure you’ll remember forever.
