Rain forest Adventure to Rio Celeste Waterfall & Sloth Sanctuary

Great tour with lots of activities throughout the day. Our driver was very knowledgeable.

We had the best time on our Rainforest Adventure to Rio Celeste Waterfall & Sloth Sanctuary tour! From start to finish, it an unforgettable experience. The hike to Rio Celeste Waterfall was beautiful, and seeing sloths in there natural habitat was a special treat. Our driver and tour guide, Sergio, was excellent. He was incredibly personable, funny, and made the entire day so enjoyable. We shared so many laughs! At the same time, he was very knowledgeable and provided fascinating insight into Costa Rica and its beautiful “pura vida” way of life. We truly had a fabulous time and would highly recommend our guide Sergio and this tour to anyone visiting Costa Rica. It was a highlight of our trip!

Anthony is amazing in every way. He is friendly, attentive and well educated in Costa Rica’s wildlife and culture. His ability to spot animals is extraordinary. If seeing wildlife is important to you, look no further. We saw Toucan and several sloths, howler monkeys, iguanas, pit vipers, many beautiful birds and more. His lunch spot is delicious and has an attached butterfly 🦋 house with a lovely tour with the founder included. His sloth sanctuary tour is another beautiful rain forest area to hike and snacks were out at the outdoor restaurant which was roasting cocoa and coffee on site. We also hiked to the beautiful Celeste waterfall! We highly recommend Anthony!!!

Our tour of Rio Celeste waterfall and the Sloth Sanctuary was absolutely incredible! The scenery alone was breathtaking — the turquoise blue water of the waterfall looks even more magical in person — but what truly made the experience exceptional was our guide, Sergio. Sergio was beyond knowledgeable, sharing fascinating details about Costa Rica, the rainforest, flora and fauna and the wildlife. You could tell he genuinely loves what he does and cares deeply about the environment and conservation. At the sloth sanctuary we had another tour guide lead us through the jungle and Jean Carlo spotted animals we never would have noticed on our own — from tiny frogs and birds to sleepy sloths tucked high in the trees. He took the time to explain everything with enthusiasm. After the jungle walk we had a delicious Casado lunch and had the company of the family pups Mya and Ginger in the little cafe on the property. The whole day felt effortless, well-organized, and full of those “wow” moments you’ll never forget. If you’re visiting Costa Rica, this tour is an absolute must — and if you can, ask for Sergio and Jean Carlo, they will make your adventure both fun and unforgettable! A huge thank you to Dixon, the tour operator, for organizing everything so smoothly and making sure every detail was taken care of. The day ran perfectly from start to finish.

I think the most memorable part of our trip was our guide Dixon, very knowledgeable about plant life and animals took the time to explain every part of our journey, and was extremely friendly and helpful. It took three hours to arrive at our destination and Dixon made our trip feel like a fun ride with a family friend just a great overall experience. 10 out of 10 would do it again.
