Perfect Tour to Experience Nature
It was a beautiful day to go to Sierra Madre to see the waterfalls. The tour operator, Pedro, took good care of us from beginning to end. The lunch was tasty. Would definitely do this tour again and recommend it to family and friends.

Recommended.
It was excellent. The hike after leaving the vehicle is on a dirt trail but once you arrive at the falls, nature's beauty and swimming is outstanding. I'm 77 years old and made it. Others can judge from that. Excellent experience.

He was professional, knowable & showed us a wonderful day! I would recommend this tour and EDUARDO as a guide VERY highly!!!

Highlight of our trip
Best tour I have ever done. The waterfalls exceeded expectations, lots of time to swim there. Our guide, Alex, was excellent, gave us lots of local information on the drive up, which kept it interesting. He was really good with our 2 children (6 & 10). Food at the restaurant after was also excellent. I would highly recommend going with a guide as opposed to on your own, as we would not have known all the routes up and down the falls. 10/10 trip.
Response from the operator: Dear Erin, Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review at: Waterfalls & Nature Day-Trip Experience We continually work to offer an excellent experience to our guests. Our goal is to always exceed your expectations. If there is anything we can help you with during your next visit, please don't hesitate to let us know. ¡Esperamos verle pronto!

Why this scores 72
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Waterfalls & Nature Day-Trip Experience: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Huatulco.
How much does Waterfalls & Nature Day-Trip Experience cost?
+
Prices start at $87 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Huatulco usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Waterfalls & Nature Day-Trip Experience take?
+
Plan for about 8 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 Huatulco is not rushed.
Is Waterfalls & Nature Day-Trip Experience worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 72 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 15 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Huatulco, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Waterfalls & Nature Day-Trip Experience?
+
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 Waterfalls & Nature Day-Trip Experience suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Waterfalls & Nature Day-Trip Experience?
+
Around 5 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 Huatulco 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 Huatulco and add a light layer if any part of the 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Waterfalls & Nature Day-Trip Experience 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 Huatulco 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 Huatulco?
+
On Outty we rank every Huatulco experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Huatulco Ocean Eco Adventures, Tour to Copalitilla Magical Waterfalls from Huatulco with admission included, Huatulco: Waterfalls, Zipline & Oaxacan Food. 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 Huatulco?
+
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 Huatulco?
+
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.
