Summary:
We arrived by mistake but it was one of the best in our experience in Costa Rica.
The atc guides and the Canopy very friendly and make the tours enjoyable.
The photos they offer if they have a high price, but the experience and food they give, very rich.
Too bad he didn't give us time for more experiences, but he'd sure come back.

Summary:
Beautiful beautiful views. Food was delicious, cas juice was so good. Guides and workers were the sweetest and knowledgeable. I was solo and my guide was the nicest taking pictures of me. Shoutout Bryson and Christopher (sp?) who made sure I was safe and the whole group that they led.
We had a test drive before doing the ATVS to make sure we would all be able to drive and I passed even despite the nerves and then almost immediately messed up once we were going into the jungle, quite embarrassingly lol but i was given another chance or I would’ve ridden with the guide. Everything was all good after that and I got breathtaking videos and pictures with the waterfalls we visited and jumped into while on the ATV path. Horses were the same. I hadn’t ridden a horse in at least 15 years and by the end I felt connected to my horse, learning how to communicate and telling her to giddy up.
Pictures that were taken were beautiful and it was an excellent deal of $44 dollars for 40 or something along those lines.
