パロベルデボートサファリ

I will be honest and say that I didn't go in to this tour expecting a lot. I had read mixed reviews. However, I found it to be exceptional. We had Frank as a driver and Kevin as a guide and they were both amazing. Kevin gave us so much helpful information about Costa Rica, and even stopped to buy us fruit at a stand when my MIL asked what it was! One caution: If you experience motion sickness, be sure to take your medicine and/or bring it along. The final road to the park is essentially a rocky riverbed and is really bumpy! They do provide lunch and it was fine. The pottery demonstration was fine too--I knew to expect it. It was an enjoyable way to spend the day and learn a lot. We also got to see crocodiles (babies and adults), monkeys (also babies and adults), lots of birds, bats and more.

The tour was really well. The boat captain did everything he could to see us the most wildlife possible and he allowed me to come up front to get pictures. Our guide was great with calling a local man to explain how the original tribe made pottery.

The experience was fantastic. I highly recommend. We saw about 30 crocodiles, 15 monkeys and many different birds. The monkey almost jumped in our boat! My 2.5 year old loved it too! Defintely possible for all ages 0-100. No fitness levels needed. Bring your camera!

Early start for the long drive to this location from our hotel. Driver was friendly and safe. Once arrived at the boat safari and loaded, our trip was somewhat chaos due to other tours getting on and off our boat after we had already left and done a portion of the tour on the river. We did see birds and monkeys and maybe that is why the boat driver only had us out for 45 minutes. We were expecting a longer boat ride of at least double that. Lunch was good. Very local food and cooked well. Return trip to hotel went as planned.

Local company to Tamarindo. Kevin our tour guide and Alberto our driver were great, stopping to see some interesting spots off the beaten track. Very informative. Boat driver knew all the spots for birds and wildlife along the way. Very authentic lunch, cooked by lovely local women. We thoroughly enjoyed our day.

Absolutely A+ experience. We booked 2 tours with them (a private sailing trip for a day and a day trip to Palo Verde National forest) as well as all of our Airport Transfers. All the tours were great, with really friendly staff and punctual drivers. The Palo Verde river cruise was particularly excellent, we saw tons of wild life and the whole family had a great time. They also were great at handling our changing itinerary with flights. Absolutely recommend them!

Great wildlife and plenty of birds and monkeys to see :) and the crocodiles and the lunch was very good! And Carlos was awesome! Very nice and had alot of good information and great guide :)

We had an amazing river tour with our guide Harry and driver Christian. Communication with them was wonderful and the ride and tour were seamless. Harry was so full of local and wildlife information and facts! Plus he could spot a tiny Kingfish bird in the trees from yards away! Our boat driver, Luis, was also amazing at maneuvering and spotting wildlife. Lunch provided by local women and crafts by local man were spot on. Thank you everyone so very much, made our trip complete!

The excursion was great. Everyone was so friendly and the food was delicious. I'm still amazed at how our guide spotted all of the hidden animals. Very impressive! A fun experience for all ages.

This was an excellent tour and gave us a wonderful taste of Costa Rican culture and wildlife. Our tour guide Kevin was extremely welcoming and knowledgeable about Costa Rican life and history. On our safari we saw a lot of wildlife including water birds, crocodiles, capuchin monkeys and large iguanas. Our boat captain Luis was wonderful as well. We enjoyed the lunch and pottery demonstration included in our trip. This was a most enjoyable day!
