Enjoy Waterfalls and Jungle Slides in Costa Rica
Tailored for those who crave adventure off the beaten path, this full-day tour from Manuel Antonio blends rainforest exploration, hidden gems, and tropical relaxation. Guided by locals who know the land intimately, you’ll escape the crowds and immerse yourself in a journey through jungle trails, secluded waterfalls, natural swimming holes, and a palm-fringed beach.
A Series of Spectacular Waterfalls
The adventure unfolds between Manuel Antonio and Uvita, where you’ll visit a series of spectacular waterfalls, each offering something different. Some pools invite you to float peacefully in turquoise waters, while others entice the bold to leap from rock formations into the depths below. The highlight for many is a 20-foot natural jungle slide, sculpted by rushing streams, that sends you gliding into a pool with laughter and adrenaline.
The rainforest hikes to reach each waterfall are easy to moderate and filled with life. Monkeys swing in the trees, bright birds flash overhead, and reptiles sun themselves on rocks. At every stop, you can decide your own pace—splash gently in the pools, step behind a curtain of water, or embrace the thrill of jumping into the clear depths. After the waterfalls, the day winds down at a remote beach, a stretch of sand lined with palms and dotted with lava rock caves. Here, you can explore the caves, collect shells, or simply relax in the tropical sun as the ocean calls for a final swim.
Fun for Everyone
