Unforgettable!

Such an amazing tour! My sister and I booked this last minute and so happy we did! We booked a 8pm slot and it was magical. Lucas and his dad took us through the property and we were able to see all types of creatures, even a sleeping sloth!! You can tell they genuinely care about the animals and loved being able to show them to us, even if they’ve seen the same animal 100 times! I would 1000% recommend this tour to anyone. A must do!

Waste of money.

Night tour in the jungle sounds fun, right? But it wasn't. Totally not worth the price. I get that you can't control wild life but the only thing we saw were a couple of frogs, ants, and a couple of small spiders. The path you walk on is a well maintained trail. I felt bad for a tour guide. He really tried to make the most out of nothing. Tour was a long drive from La Fortuna also. Truthfully they should be ashamed to charge so much. It really should be free.

We questioned the drive to the location, but so glad we didn’t turn around. It was neat to see the jungle at night. Lucas was a great tour guide!

Enjoyed this tour, it was interesting learning about the different wildlife at night in Costa Rica, and we spotted many frogs and bugs. Would recommend. Definitely wear long clothes or bug spray.

Amazing Experience

We had a fantastic experience on this night tour. For a very reasonable admission fee, we enjoyed about two hours exploring the rainforest with a knowledgeable guide who did an amazing job spotting wildlife that we would never have found on our own. We saw several frogs, insects, birds, and even a snake. The atmosphere was peaceful and immersive, and the small group size made it easy for everyone to see the animals and ask questions. The tour was well organized, informative, and respectful of the wildlife and their habitat. If you’re visiting La Fortuna and enjoy nature, this tour is definitely worth doing. Highly recommended!

Show up and enjoy

We had an amazing time out with Jose! Even with the rain we still managed to get in some great time spotting a few animals. We'll definitely be back next time we're in Costa Rica!! If you want to get a good look at the area through locals eyes you need to come

Best night tour with Francisco.

Francisco is amazing; he has great knowledge in the field. A little scary at first, but after the explanations, I felt much better.
