点评:This place Finca De Rafa owns some properties around La Leona waterfall
and they also organize the tours.
We picked our great guide Yoseddeibid (I hope I spelled this correctly)
on the road while driving through Curubande, and drove to the parking of
the waterfall. We had no problem going through the private property on the way
to the parking as he knew everyone and he checked out the life vests, got us
to sign at the reception and pay for the tour ($30 per person),
waited patiently for us to change and use bug spray.
The walk is very interesting and diverse, with many river crossings and ups and
downs the rocks and around the big boulders. Yoseddeibid told us the names of the
trees and plants, the story of native people and Curubande princess. He took us to see
some farm animals, and crops, and we went around bigger tours (like 30-50 people groups)
as he knew all the shortcuts. I think having a guide for 8 people or less is a way
to go, as oppose a big group - if one does not require transportation.
We were also free to take a swim in some sections that he recommended (it was a hot day)
and I loved that aspect of not being rushed.
Eventually at the waterfall there was a long wait line - it was midday.
However once in the water and roping our way to the fall, he was there pulling us from
the water and giving instructions for the last step that is a bit tricky.
We loved our tour, and had great time not to mention it is very reasonably priced for
a 3h+ of magical walk and so much beauty that we have seen.
Kudos to Yoseddeibid and Finca De Rafa.
翻译:Finca De Rafa 这个地方在 La Leona 瀑布周围拥有一些房产,他们也组织旅游。
我们在途中经过 Curubande 时选择了我们出色的导游 Yoseddeibid(我希望我拼写正确),然后开车前往瀑布的停车场。我们在去停车场的路上穿过私人地产,因为他认识每个人,他检查了救生衣,让我们在接待处签名并支付旅游费用(每人 30 美元),耐心地等待我们换衣服和使用杀虫剂。
步行非常有趣和多样,有许多河流交叉口,在岩石和巨石周围上下起伏。Yoseddeibid 告诉我们树木和植物的名字,当地人和 Curubande 公主的故事。他带我们去看了一些农场动物和庄稼,我们参加了更大的旅行团(比如 30-50 人的团体),因为他知道所有的捷径。我认为,如果不需要交通工具,那么为 8 人或更少的人找一个导游是可行的
,而不是一大群人。
我们还可以自由地在他推荐的某些区域游泳(那天很热)
,我喜欢这种不着急的感觉。
最后,在瀑布那里排了很长的队——当时是中午。
然而,一旦我们进入水中,用绳索走到瀑布,他就在那里把我们从水中拉出来,并指导我们最后一步,这有点棘手。
我们喜欢我们的旅行,玩得很开心,更不用说价格非常合理
,3 小时以上的神奇步行和我们看到的美景。
向 Yoseddeibid 和 Finca De Rafa 致敬。
