Only el Diablo is very beautiful.
By mountain bike from Banos to the 7 waterfalls. Good news is that the route is 70% downhill. Immediately outside Banos you will see a sign to the right with the indication of the 7 waterfalls. DON'T TAKE THAT TURN. That road goes up and is almost impossible to walk + you don't see the waterfalls. Continue cycling on the main road. The waterfalls are coming n will automatically come to your right. You see the waterfalls from quite a distance, but they are beautiful. Numerous opportunities along the way for bunjee jumping or similar attractions. End point about 25 km is Diablos waterfall. You can park your bike there and visit the Warerval on foot. He can take two routes. A longer one and a short one. The short one is about a 20 minute walk. The don't know. The result is beautiful. Then back to Banos with a small truck. Cycling is also possible, but then you have to go 70% uphill. Those trucks are scammers. Price per person is 1.50 but they charge 3. You have no choice.

Fun!!
We had a great experience! You’ll take a bus (Chiva) to several stops along the mountain: the adventure park, a cable car to get you closer to a waterfall and to the pailon del Diablo. For a “bus tour” this is a very physical experience: - the Chiva is not allowed in the city so you will need to walk a few blocks from the meeting place to the Chiva station (with your tour guide; only if it does not pick you up at your hotel) - the adventure park has zip lining, the “crystal bridge” and a Tarzan jump - at pailon del Diablo you’ll walk multiple sets of stairs and declining/inclining ramps to get where you need to go Our tour was in Spanish (which is what we selected), but there is an English option as well! The tour guide was knowledgeable, patient, and fun! Would definitely recommend for someone who wanted to explore the most possible in the shortest time (like us!)

Why this scores 63
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Pailon del Diablo (Route of the Waterfalls) Tours 3 Hours - Chiva: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Baños.
How much does Pailon del Diablo (Route of the Waterfalls) Tours 3 Hours - Chiva cost?
+
Prices start at $26 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Baños usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Pailon del Diablo (Route of the Waterfalls) Tours 3 Hours - Chiva take?
+
Plan for about 3 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Baños is not rushed.
Is Pailon del Diablo (Route of the Waterfalls) Tours 3 Hours - Chiva worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 63 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.4/5 across 7 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Baños, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Pailon del Diablo (Route of the Waterfalls) Tours 3 Hours - Chiva?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Pailon del Diablo (Route of the Waterfalls) Tours 3 Hours - Chiva suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 3-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Pailon del Diablo (Route of the Waterfalls) Tours 3 Hours - Chiva?
+
Around 2 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Baños can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Baños and add a light layer if any part of the 3-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Pailon del Diablo (Route of the Waterfalls) Tours 3 Hours - Chiva start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Baños within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Baños?
+
On Outty we rank every Baños experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Rafting Tour, Full Day Baths, The Best Extreme Canyoning -Cashaurco in -Banos Ecuador. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Baños?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Baños?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
