Yes - the trip starts out early. 5am is no joke. However, because of how much fun it was, the early wake up was pretty quickly forgotten. The description on the website is pretty on point. The hike - moderate difficulty - was amazing. Spending time in the rain forest/jungle - nothing like it. Crossing creeks reminded me of my childhood. There are three very experienced guides helping the group along the way. We felt very safe and taken care of. The rafting (which I have never done before) was a lot of fun as well and not as hard or scary as I imagined. Most of the time you are floating down the river - enjoying the views for the water, trees, birds, some animals and having great conversation with other people on the boat. The weather was perfect.

I would definitely go on this again and recommend this adventure to anyone - young or old - no matter what fitness level or if you have done rafting before. The memories we made and the pictures that we took will last with us a lifetime.
