This was a cool outdoor experience that was nice to check off of our list while in Colombia. We did have some miss communication about the pick up spot. On Viator it said there were only three pick up spots but we did get picked up from the hotel. Be sure to be very clear about your pick up. Once we arrived to the site everything was very orderly. We were able to have pictures taken and get a massage. Our time in the mud bath was about 15-20 minutes which was enough. Do manage your expectations about the size and length of your stay in the mud. I would also suggest you bring a towel if you can. The mud bath was fun and the bath in the river to rinse off was very therapeutic and refreshing. After rinsing off, there are an option of snacks and drinks to eat at a local shop. I was on the fence about going but I’m glad I went. This is a nice way to end your trip if you have time especially since it ends quiet early in the day leaving plenty of time for other 1/2 day activities after being dropped off.

Amazing experience, the tour guided Jose and our driver Benjamin were very serviceable and lovely. The service number to the company explain everything I needed to know for the trip and how they can be found amongst the rest of the groups. They share their knowledge of the area and I couldn’t be more grateful

Our tour guides Milton and Jesus were amazing. Book them and you’ll have a great time. A small word of advice, bring a little cash to tip the staff that are there to enhance your experience.
