My wife and I enjoyed a day in the national park and a second morning kayaking on the river through the mangroves. Both were excellent and our guide had excellent Vision to see and explain the animals and plants. Very much appreciated his good service.
Thank you so much for choosing us for both your park tour and your mangrove kayaking adventure! We are thrilled you had such a great time. I will be sure to pass along your compliments to our guide regarding his keen eye for nature—he will be very happy to hear his expertise added to your experience. We truly appreciate your feedback and hope to welcome you back for more explorations soon!
Great tour experience. Diego is very experienced and was able to show many local wild life and answer all our questions. We really enjoyed our time and learned alot. Would definitely recommend this tour.
Thank you so much for the kind words! It was a real pleasure having you on the tour. I’m thrilled that you enjoyed the wildlife and that we were able to dive deep into all your questions—sharing my passion for our local nature is exactly why I love doing what I do. I truly appreciate your recommendation and hope to see you back here in Manuel Antonio again!
My husband and I did a G Adventure tour which used Diego for the Manuel Antonia park. Diego’s tour was by far the best experience we had throughout our tour. He is extremely knowledgeable about the area and has an amazing eye for seeing the wildlife in a dense tropical forest. We had other guided walks in other areas of Costa Rica but none compared to Diego’s.
Thank you so much for such an incredible compliment! It was truly a pleasure meeting you and your husband. I am thrilled to hear that my tour was a highlight of your trip; sharing the wonders of our tropical forest and helping guests spot our local wildlife is my passion. Thank you for choosing to explore with me, and I hope to welcome you both back to Manuel Antonio again!
Diego is fantastic! We did the 2 km hike through Manuel Antonio NP. Diego is very knowledgable about the park and its inhabitants, and took the time to give us details on each and a chance to look through the spotting scope. He also took fabulous photos and videos through the scope, it is such a treat to have these memories recorded.
That is so kind of you to say! I'm really glad you enjoyed the hike through the park. Taking the time to really get a good look through the scope and capturing those moments—whether it's the wildlife behavior or just a great close-up—is one of my favorite parts of the tour. I'm happy you have those photos and videos to look back on. It was a pleasure sharing the park with you!
Our guide was great - without him I wouldn’t have spotted any of the animals! He used the scope so we could zoom is and let everyone take pictures through the scope to get some amazing close up shots. You can then stay in the park after the tour to spend time hiking or at the beaches. The park is busy - there’s no avoiding that. it’s the main attraction in the area but it’s worth it and the money generated is used in a positive way.
I'm so glad you enjoyed the tour and that the spotting scope photos turned out well! It really is a game-changer for capturing those close-up details. I'm also happy you took advantage of the extra time to explore the beaches and trails on your own after the hike. I completely agree—even with the crowds, it’s a special place to visit. Thanks for joining me!
Our guide Diego was top notch. He knew so much and schooled us on flora and fauna. We saw so many things - birds, sloths, spiders, snakes, monkeys, crabs, etc. We spent a lovely time hiking and sitting on the beach after the tour. Word of warning - the food in the enclosed lunchroom was really, really bad!
I'm really glad you enjoyed the tour and that we were able to spot so much wildlife together! It was a pleasure sharing my knowledge of the local flora and fauna with you, and I'm happy you made the most of your time on the beach afterwards. I appreciate the heads-up about the lunchroom—that is definitely helpful for me to know for future guests. Thanks for joining me!
Diego Nature Tours were awesome! Everyone we talked to was extremely professional, courteous and helpful. Communication was easy. And the guides were amazing - they really knew what they were talking about - and helped us get amazing photos. They helped us set up other tours we wanted to do as well. We did 3 tours with them (Night Tour, Chocolate Tour, Manuel Antonio National Park Tour) and loved them all! I highly recommend Diego and his team, and would use them for any other tours they offer - top notch!
Thank you so much for your kind words! It was a true pleasure to have you with us for all three experiences. I’m thrilled to hear you enjoyed the Night, Chocolate, and National Park tours, and that our team made everything easy for you. Knowing that you walked away with great memories and photos is the best part of what we do. We would love to have you back anytime—thank you for recommending us!
Definitely worth going into the park with a guide! Our guide Diego was great! What an acquaintance this man has of beautiful nature.
Thank you for your positive review, we are so glad you had a great time in Manuel Antonio National Park.
Diego is passionate about the biodiversity within Manuel Antonio National Park. Coupled with his friendliness, it made for a wonderful tour. He shared facts, stories and even some local mythology. Diego located so many animals, and made our trip to the park memorable.
thanks or you review, is very important to us. pura vida!!
Diego was extremely friendly and helpful, holds deep knowledge on the different animal species and habitat making possible to everyone see things would have gone unseen. He carries a cutting-edge set of lenses that capture the smallest details of animal - example: we were able to see a unique spider that is 2inches big and blends in nature to capture its prey’s! Very good communication and handling the group with different age and nationality. Diego made a walk in the park become a memorable experience!
thanks for write a review, we are so glad to be part o your experience in Costa Rica.
