プライベート熱帯雨林ツアー：ナマケモノ、吊り橋＆コーヒー

I cannot recommend Manuel’s Costa Rica One on One Tours highly enough. If you are looking for a truly private, personalized, and unforgettable way to experience Costa Rica, Manuel is absolutely the person you want guiding you. We had the privilege of spending three incredible days with Manuel, and they ended up being some of the most memorable experiences of our entire trip. From beginning to end, everything was completely private, personal, and tailored to us. Nothing ever felt like a generic or prepackaged tourist experience. Over our three days together, we explored Costa Rica’s incredible rainforests and saw an amazing variety of wildlife, including sloths, poison dart frogs, and countless other animals we never would have spotted on our own. We also did an unforgettable private crocodile spotting experience. Manuel’s knowledge of the wildlife, rainforest, and local environment was exceptional, and his ability to find and point out animals was remarkable. But what truly made these three days so special was Manuel himself. He is the consummate professional—knowledgeable, personable, patient, accommodating, and genuinely passionate about sharing his country with others. By the end of our time together, it honestly felt less like we were traveling with a tour guide and more like we were exploring Costa Rica with a friend who wanted us to experience everything that makes his country so special. The experience went far beyond wildlife. We enjoyed incredible authentic local lunches, experienced Costa Rican coffee and chocolate, and were introduced to parts of the culture and country that we simply would not have experienced on our own. Some of those smaller, authentic moments ended up being just as memorable as seeing the wildlife. For three days of completely private, one-on-one experiences of this caliber, we also felt the value was exceptional. Nothing ever felt rushed, commercialized, or impersonal. Manuel gave us his full attention and went above and beyond throughout our entire time together. I have traveled extensively around the world and have experienced many private tours, and Manuel genuinely stands among the very best guides I have ever encountered. His professionalism, knowledge, warmth, and genuine kindness made our time in Costa Rica something we will never forget. If you are visiting Costa Rica and want to experience the country beyond the typical tourist itinerary, book with Manuel. I would recommend Manuel’s Costa Rica One on One Tours without hesitation. Spending three days with him was one of the highlights of our entire Costa Rica trip, and I would book with him again in a heartbeat. Five stars simply does not feel like enough.

It was an AMAZING EXPERIENCE with Manuel!!! He shared the culture and more than our tour like eating empanadas at his favorite restaurant..delicious btw 😋, photos in town, getting coconut 🥥 water from a bike vendor, traditional Costa Rican lunch 🥙….everything was top notch!!!! It was the extra little things that made it more special 💗! Just when thought the bar was raised at its highest point it was tipped over because we did karaoke 🎤 on the way back to the resort with the mic 🎤, lights and 🪩 disco ball!! He is definitely my guy when I come back here and you’ll say the same thing too!!!

This tour was great! We had Pablo as our guide and made the trip even better! Unfortunately I was not feeling great on the actual day of the tour and felt really bad, but Pablo stopped at a pharmacy and helped translate with the pharmacist what would be best to make me feel better- so that was incredibly sweet and helpful (also made having the one on one tour so much better since no one else had to wait on me). Our first stop was the waterfall which was gorgeous and refreshing- a little crowded but that is to be expected, the next stop was the coffee and cacao tour which was super fun to learn all about the beans and how the Costa Rican coffee and chocolate is produced. Next up was the hanging bridges which was way cooler than I expected- a lot of fun noises and sights to see there in the rainforest! We then had a typical Costa Rican lunch which was delicious before heading to see the sloths! Not guaranteed to see them, but we ended up seeing 4 in their natural habitat which was really amazing- didn’t expect them to be so high up in the trees but after learning more about them, it makes so much more sense- they’re truly unique and amazing creatures! We even saw a toucan and the green tree frogs sleeping on leaves! Definitely recommend the one on one tours when visiting Costa Rica- you won’t regret it!!

We spent a week in Costa Rica and this was one of the highlights of our trip! Gabriel was an amazing guide and was so patient with our family with 3 kids in tow. He picked us up at our hotel and planned the entire day. We started at an amazing waterfall and then headed to a coffee/chocolate tour that was outstanding. It was followed by a guided tour through the rainforest to see sloths, birds, reptiles, and amazing plants. We had a delicious lunch at a local restaurant with a butterfly garden attached! We wrapped up with a tour through another rainforest with hanging bridges and the views were just breathtaking. It was so well planned and we felt like we got to experience the highlights of Costa Rica. Highly recommend this tour- it's not to be missed!

This whole experience was awesome! Although the description says 6 to 7 hours our guide, Pablo made absolutely sure that we experienced every single thing to the fullest- saw every plant and animal that we could! would not give up on the day until we saw sloths and was with us for a 12 hour day! So knowledgeable about all the plants! The coffee, cocoa, rainforest walks, lunch!!! It was all EXCELLENT. Pablo was the best guide!!!

Our experience was solid five star! Our guide, Pablo was knowledgeable, kind and accommodating. Each stop we made was flawless regarding arrival and experience. Pablo led us to see so many incredible sights and wildlife, making our day a perfect one! Must also mention he chose a delicious lunch spot! Highly recommend!

this was our only excursion booked in Costa Rica as we traveled with a 1yo-old and 3yo and didn’t know how the kids were going to handle the long day. Manuel was our guide and was the most patient man I ever met. We accomplished so much and visited so many locations in one day. He was able to strategically stop in multiple locations while enjoying excursions and taking a break. While the toddlers became restless he provided delicious fruit and special costa rican treats which helped tremendously. More importantly he was able to capture amazing memories of the family with both my phone and his and he must have a photography background as videos were amazing. His love for nature showed as he provided exceptional information on creatures and trees of rain forest. So glad we booked this guide, highlight of our trip.

I would 100% recommend this tour with Costa Rica One on One Tours! I went with my husband and two boys, ages 7 and 9. Our guide was Manuel and he made the experience exceptional for us all! He was wonderful with the boys! This private tour allowed us to immerse ourselves in so much Costa Rican goodness in just one day. Manuel had personal touches and surprises along the way that made it even more special!! Thank you Manuel! Hopefully we’ll see you again during our next visit to your beautiful country!!!

Wow- Pablo was great!! We got transportation, got to swim in the waterfall, have a nice coffee/chocolate tour, delicious lunch, a little hike, plus the sloth/forest tour was great!! We had a full full day since we stayed in Liberia, there’s lots of transportation time but Pablo was excellent driver and conversationalist. We had a great time and saw many animals! Thanks for everything!
