Mega Adrenaline & Splash: Damajagua Waterfalls Buggy, Zipline & Swim Adventure
Spend a full day of off-road buggies, canopy ziplines and the famed Damajagua waterfall circuit—swimming, sliding and optional cliff jumps. This guided tour pairs high-octane driving with hands-on water adventure and a farm-style lunch.
The Experience
Before You Go
Wear closed-toe water shoes
Sturdy, grippy footwear protects feet on slick volcanic rock and during short swims between pools.
Bring a waterproof phone case
Phones and small items get soaked on the waterfall circuit and in the buggy; a dry bag keeps them safe.
Hydrate and eat before the tour
You’ll be active for about 8 hours—start with water and a light meal to maintain energy levels.
Driver license required to rent buggy
Only licensed drivers may operate double buggies; bring your ID and expect seat sharing rules.

Conservation Note
Guides control group sizes and routes to minimize erosion and impact; follow their instructions, pack out trash, and avoid stepping on fragile pool edges to protect the river habitat.
Damajagua’s falls cut through Pleistocene-era volcanic and carbonate rock; local communities historically used these freshwater sources for irrigation and daily life.
