**★★★★★ Edgy Balance — 3 weeks ago

Amazing eco park. Very friendly staff. Not expensive. Grutas ar gorgeous, you can take amazing pictures. You can have several hikes and I even took a swim in a river.

**★★★★★ Shelley Chapman — a month ago

A fantastic place for walking and exploring. Everything around the area of the arch is interesting. We do have concerns about those in charge of rock climbing/rappel. The safety people holding ropes below weren't using helmets. There was even a family with a baby on a picnic blanket directly under a rock climber. This is hugely unsafe and irresponsible.

Had s beautiful time at the Grutas el Arcotete, I didn’t go on a tour I took a colectivo is only $15 pesos just have to ask which one goes there I like to go on my own because I take as long as I need and nog rushed like sometimes by tour guide.

**★★★★★ Candace ComePlantas — a year ago

So magical, I can't believe that I almost didn't come here! Definitely take the time to also explore the fantastical gruta and to appreciate the forest canopy from above at the mirador! Just 15 pesos straight from the downtown area to the entrance of the park every 8 minutes until 6 in the evening. When I was there it was 10 to visit the arc and 15 to go into the gruta. Well worth it!

**★★★☆☆ Heather Scotland — a year ago

The caves are quite cool but overall an underwhelming experience if you are used to nature. Should you have some time to kill, it is worth a visit but don’t break your back trying to get here. The individuals working there are not friendly, greeted us with their hand out, and tried to keep my partner’s change. Entrance fees are 10 for the park and 15 for the caves. There is a 5 peso charge for bathrooms. The zip lining did not look very exciting. I saw no horses. The water is very polluted. Ther
