“We had an unforgettable day at El Dorado Park! If you are looking for the perfect mix of high-energy adventure and beautiful relaxation, this is it. We did it all - from the adrenaline rush of zip-lining over the park to racing each other down the massive water slides. What we loved most was the variety. We spent half the time heart-pounding on the slides and the other half enjoying a peaceful kayak ride and lounging in the stunning, crystal-clear blue lagoons. We walked away with some of our favorite vacation photos and videos ever! The park is clean, well-organized, and has an amazing tropical vibe. It’s the perfect spot…”

“I say 2 stars bc the staff was nice and did their best!!! However our dune buggies kept breaking down completely, you'd be flooring the gas pedal and going no where. We only had two and both were breaking down. We had to pull over on the side of the road and the poor tour guide had to keep fixing them!! I feel like everywhere we went there were vendors everywhere and they HOUND YOU!! it's bad - like there are so many and they swarm you and if you say no they keep on. The pics that they took were great pics and they were very nice to us…”

“The excursion and activities itself were excellent. Communication was great and the transfer arrived on time. We paid for the Jet Skiing and got access to the small waterpark, zip lining and pool. Those were all incredible. The jet skis were so cool, the hosts were incredibly friendly and accommodating considering we spoke very limited Spanish. This truly would’ve been a 5 star review, however, we ordered food and drinks at the small restaurant in the park. Now the food itself actually tasted incredible, was cooked quickly, portion sizes are very big, it’s very cheap, and the server was super friendly. However I couldn’t finish the entire pizza to myself…”
