Tortuguero kanalkryssning och Prospect Plantation. Strandutflykt

Josua was a great guide. He was very knowledgeable. The National Park and Banana plantation were really good. The canal ride not so much.

This tour is a complete experience of Limon. We started the tour with a cruise of the Tortuguero Canal. Our guides got us up close to wildlife which made for fantastic pictures. Then on to a banana and coffee plantation with shopping included where we purchased some coffee to take with us. Our guide, Natalie, was very knowledgeable about the sites we visited. Our driver, Fernando, was phenomenal as he negotiated the roads. This was a wonderful introduction to Limon which I would highly recommend.

It is worth it. Ariel was very knowledgeable and very nice! All the activities mentioned in the details were actually all fulfilled and then some. There were plenty of bathrooms opportunities.

My husband and I took this trip with Josue, our knowledgeable guide and Jeiner, our eagle-eyed driver. Josue is a biologist turned tour guide who was a font of knowledge about the flora and fauna in the area. Jeiner could spot a sloth in a tree 100 feet from the road. They were both so helpful to me with my limited mobility, there was always a strong arm to help me get in and out of the bus and the boat. We would definitely recommend this tour to anyone looking to view wildlife and learn more about the Costs Rican ecosystems.

Our tour guide Pablo did an outstanding job teaching us about the history and animals of Costa Rica. He included humorous stories whenever they fit, and had us all laughing. Our boat tour featured driver Danny, who has the ability to spot a tiny creature from 20 yards away. He landed us right beside a nesting bird, and spotted an iguana about six inches long under a canopy of leaves. The banana plantation tour was terrific, and Pablo knew all the plants and their uses. Best tour we’ve had.

Our tour included a stop to view a slow-moving sloth on the way to the Tortuguero Canal tour which was filled with bird observations and some monkeys picking bananas. The plantation visit was very informative, however is more just a smapling of a plantation.

This was our third visit to Costa Rica. Our guide was outstanding. His love of his country and his enthusiasm to share his knowledge made this tour beyond 5 stars. Best tour of our cruise.

We were visiting off of a cruise ship and had to walk completely outside the pier area to meet a tour representative who escorted us to our minibus for the day. Our trip leader, Ariel, provided us with lots of information about Costa Rica as we drove down the coast for about 45 minutes to the Cahuita National Park which trail starts at the edge of the local town. There were bathrooms available at the park entrance along with concessions. The trail was a fairly flat and well marked trail. Our guide helped point out wildlife along the way. We were able to spot 3-toed sloths ( very high up the trees), orb spiders who made several large webs along the trail, some monkeys, as well as industrious ants and a resting yellow eyelash viper. Next, we stopped at an organic banana plantation where we were able to sample a few fresh bananas as well as have the coffee, cocoa bean, and banana growth and exports explained to us. Finally, we were driven to the Tortoguero National park where we boarded a boat for a cruise along the canal where we were fortunate enough to see a few caiman, a “Jesus Christ” Basilisk, howler monkeys, and a two-toed sloth.

Really enjoyed the tour. Was a great way to experience Limon, Costa Rica in just a few hours. The tour guides were awesome and shared a lot of great facts!

We took this excursion while in Costa Rica and had a great time. Berto was our guide and first took us to the canal where we saw several howler monkeys, sloths, a crocodile. He pointed out a toucan, but it was fairly high in the tree and difficult to see. Following the boat ride, we were served fresh fruit: watermelon, papaya and pineapple. We then headed to a banana "plantation" where we were served organic bananas and had a chance to sample Costa Rican coffee. The banana fields were not very large, but Alberto was able to inform us of the growing and harvesting processes which was very interesting. Our next stop was a rain forest which borders the Caribbean Sea where we saw Capuchin monkeys, raccoons and other wildlife. The tour was great and Berto did a great job. The tour left the port at 8:00 as scheduled (9:00 "ship time") which caused some confusion from some of our fellow travelers, but we returned in plenty of time to shop the craft market before returning to the ship. Also, a couple tours were combined onto one bus due to logistics which bothered some, but we were able to see more than the tour promised. It was a great day in Costa Rica.
