マヌエル アントニオのカヤック マングローブ ツアー

The experience was nice, I would have liked to see more wildlife but it is a different activity. Suddenly it felt like they received us very "meh". "Arrive, activity and nothing else, bye". Although the service is adequate, hospitality and personal attention are always appreciated.

Amazing! Had Felipe and he was a great tour guide super knowledgeable but also personable, chill and fun. We were super lucky it was only myself and partner on the tour. Kayaking was not too hard at all, only mini work out at the end upstream. No pick up/drop off but we got a cheap uber and they were there ready and waiting.

Fun little kayaking tour of the mangrove and all its creatures and fauna and flora. Filipe is a story teller and he made the tour very entertaining. We saw the white faced monkey Scarface as well as another family just hanging around, jumping from tree to tree. On the tour, we saw a sleeping boa constructor, several basilisks or Jesus Christ lizards, a huge iguana up high in the tree, and a few dancing mosquito troupes.

Amazing setting, lovely kayaking experience, and a great tour guide to bring you through it! Michael brought humor and detailed knowledge about the flora and fauna of the mangrove. Chill vibes and great scenery will make this tour one of the highlights of our trip!

Had a great time with Michael as the guide. He showed us a lot of hidden animals, found a big family of monkeys in the trees overhead, and gave details info on the mangrove ecosystem.

We saw tons of different kinds of animals and our guide was super nice and knowledgeable! So happy we did this!

We had such a great time exploring the mangroves with Micheal! He was an excellent guide - spotted countless animals and plants and taught us a lot about the local ecosystem. The tour was the perfect length and fairly easy with the only slightly challenging part being the last 5-10 mins paddling against the stream. It was a really special experience connecting with nature and we even got up close with some monkeys. I highly recommend the tour and Michael as a guide! Was a highlight of the trip!

The kayaking tour through the mangrove forest near Manuel Antonio was actually my most anticipated activity in Costa Rica, but unfortunately, it ended up being the worst experience I had during the trip. I understand the laid-back “Pura Vida” culture, but I’m pretty sure calling guests over by whistling at them is not exactly respectful or professional. The guide seemed like a genuinely nice person, but honestly, not a very good coach for beginners. I had only kayaked once before, in Croatia, so I was struggling a bit and hoping for some guidance. However, the only advice I received during the entire two-hour experience was basically to “apply equal power on both sides,” and that was it. Our kayaks were dirty and my kayak even turned overboard turning me into the river. Because I was finding kayaking difficult, I kept falling slightly behind the group. Instead of making sure everyone stayed together, the guide spent almost the entire tour focused on the people ahead and left me alone trying to catch up most of the time, which made the experience stressful rather than enjoyable. The overall setup also felt disappointing. There were no snacks provided at all, and the meeting point was a run-down house with dirty toilets. As for wildlife, we only saw a few monkeys and a sloth, which was underwhelming considering how the experience was advertised. There was also no communication whatsoever before the tour. Overall, highly disappointing, especially for beginners. I would avoid this tour.

Of the best activities of my trip to Costa Rica! The tour is amazing. It is beautiful to see the animals in their natural habitat and discover the mangrove. Michael is simply wonderful, has a very nice energy and makes the experience even better. Recommended, do not hesitate.

Michael was our tour guide, he was very knowledgeable, spotted EVERYTHING around and was funny too. Highly recommended
