It was a real jungle experience. Unfortunately we didn't see many animals and there were several groups on the way so sometimes it went slowly .Nevertheless we learned a lot about the animals and botany .The guides were totally nice and very informative. It was a very nice trip. The boat trip alone was great
David was excellent. Very knowledgeable and engaging. He was bilingual, respectful and passionate about the park. He was anxious to find all the wildlife we wanted to see and patient getting everyone pictures in his viewfinder. It would not have been nearly as enjoyable without such a guide.
Vert Nice excursion! We had a lot of rain on the boat to go and at the beginning of the trek but it gave an exceptionnel expérience. We sale a lot of animales even dolphins on our way Back
Wonderful day trip to Corcovado- we saw whales on the way and back- and in the park saw a tapir, monkeys, anteater, and other wildlife. The boat's captain Brian, crewman Guillermo, and our guide Oscar were skilled professionals. Oscar was so knowledgeable about the park environment and animal species! PS: I noticed another review mentioning a lack of challenging hiking and adventure- thid is correct, and it was A GOOD THING because this tour isnt about hiking but is about maximizing wildlife sightings and experiencing the most of Corcovado in the very short period of time a day trip can offer.

We are thrilled to know that the tour met your expectations and that you were able to see whales, a tapir, monkeys, anteater, and other wildlife. It makes us very happy to hear that Brian, Guillermo, and Oscar’s professionalism and knowledge contributed to making your day in Corcovado memorable. Thank you for recommending us, and we hope to welcome you back soon for another adventure in Costa Rica! ¡Pura Vida! Costa Rica Te Enamora Team
Fantastic tour of this unique park. We saw a ton of animals (two types of monkeys, a red macaw, two sloths, tapirs...). Our guide David was very knowledgeable and accommodating. We highly recommend! The one thing to be aware of is it's a long boat ride from Sierpe - be ready for about 1.5 hours each way. But, well worth the trip!
Hello Michael, What a pleasure to read your comment! We are delighted to know that you enjoyed the tour and were able to spot such an incredible variety of animals, from monkeys and macaws to sloths and even tapirs – a truly special experience. We are also very happy to know that David’s knowledge and dedication made your visit even more memorable. Our guides take great pride in sharing their passion for nature and making each journey unique. We hope to welcome you back soon to continue exploring the natural beauty of Costa Rica together. ¡Pura Vida! Costa Rica Te Enamora
This trip is suitable for people who want to have a comfortable and superficial jungle experience (older people, people with children etc.). Would not recommend this tour to those who want to go deeper into the jungle (with more challenging hikes) and see more wildlife. Half of the hiking we walked with as group of 25 people…no surprise that we did not see much wildlife. However, overall the tour was well organized and the boat ride was nice.
Hola Mujo Thank you for sharing your experience with us. We understand that, if you are looking for a more in-depth and adventurous jungle experience, a one-day tour to Corcovado National Park may not be the most suitable, as this option is quicker and more accessible for those who do not have much time but still wish to experience this majestic place. For those who are looking for more of a challenge, we offer 2 to 3 day tour options, which allow you to explore the jungle in more depth. We appreciate that you appreciated the organization of the tour and the beauty of the boat ride; we hope to be able to offer you a more complete experience on a future visit, if you wish to explore the park in a deeper way!

A great way to see a small part of this wonderful park and the mangroves. Our tour guide David was very knowledgeable about the wildlife and fauna in the park and made an effort to ensure everyone got a chance to see the wildlife that was present. It would have been helpful for better organization at the beginning if the guides had a list of people who were signed up for the each tour and a name badge, or identification, since there were multiple tours leaving from the same location.
Hola Larry Thank you for sharing your experience! We’re so glad to hear that you enjoyed the tour. It’s wonderful to know that the guide’s knowledge and effort made the experience even more special, ensuring everyone could enjoy the wildlife. We also appreciate your feedback on organization, and we’ll certainly take it into consideration as we continue to improve our operations to make the experience smoother for all guests. Thanks again for your valuable input, and we hope to welcome you back soon for another unforgettable adventure! 🌟 Pura Vida!! Costa Rica Te Enamora Team
If you’re lucky enough to visit Corcovado National Park, you’re luckier if you do so with a guide as knowledgeable as Oscar. His knowledge, ability to find native fauna and passion for his work make this experience, an unparalleled one. Chef, biologist, photographer, specialist, who can ask more. Also thank Captain Kevin and Jose, who not only drive the ship with great expertise, but attend to the needs of their crew so that each receives what they need. No matter if it's reverse, sideways, rocks or mangroves, Kevin runs his boat like a glove in his hand. Finally, we do not want to forget the hospitality of Jorge who welcomes you from the beginning to the end of this magnificent experience. We saw: Macaws, Crocodiles, Coati, Boas, Spider Monkeys, Anteaters and as a cherry on the cake, a Puma. Thank you Oscar, Kevin, Jose and Jorge for this fantastic experience.

Thanks you for thé tour to corcovado national Park Carlos was a guide super and thé dinner was excellent 👍
The itinerary didn't match with what we actually did. We went to Sirena Station instead of San Padrillo. The boat was 2 hours which was quite long but the day was really great! We saw many animals and the walk in the jungle was beautiful. The boat trip back was 2,5 hours. So be aware that you be on the boat for 4,5 hours.
