The place is beautiful and everything is very well organized. The schedule is a bit different then indicated and we visited the town where the basically just bring you to town, a early morning boat ride in the national park and a guided hike which just follows a path behind the hotel. Then there is an optional hike where they charge you again 30$ and you walk to a nice hill where you get a great view. And the last afternoon is free so you can do what you want. For what you pay and what you get it‘s not really worth it since the only nice tour was the boat ride in the morning. The big advantage is that everything is very well organized to get there and back. Also I booked the tour as a solo traveler and ended up with only couples on their honeymoon ;)
