For that I recommend saving this for last on your itinerary. I think the guides need to…”

“Really fun hike. Harder than expected. Knee deep in water at times. Attentive tour guide that has to balance the slow ones and active members of group. The only problem is the lack of pictures. I did the Tarzan jump and there was no video of that. But there was videos of the waterslide ,that I didn't participate in.That really missed the mark. Not many one on one pictures for families. Even pictures of the environment would have been nice. Busy hike, lots of groups in the watering holes. But it's hard to know what to expect. Overall I say go in open-ended. You won't be disappointed in the experience.…”
