We had an appointment with Hugo at 5:50 AM, the time we arrived, but he, who must have thought we were going to cancel, arrived around 6:20 AM. Without letting us know it was him, we were given life jackets and invited to get into the canoe; we were wondering who the gentleman was, who was quite cold nonetheless. The ride was nice, but we really have mixed feelings about Hugo. Yet we had only seen positive reviews.
We stayed at Hugo's, canoeed and night walk with him. It offers a 5/5 service! He speaks a much richer French than many of our fellow citizens. We loved the night walk, he took the time, his passion for nature is felt. The canoe ride is relaxing and enjoyable, at the rendezvous: caimans, monkeys, lizards, birds... We sincerely thank him, everything was was beyond what we imagined.
Great experience, our guide spoke perfect French, and knew very well the plants and animals of Tortuguero. Very nice atmosphere. I highly recommend it.
Hugo is an excellent guide, very friendly without whom we would not have seen most of the animals. This activity was very interesting
Hugo takes small groups to guarantee the quality of his tours. The canoe ride was very pleasant, Hugo is good at spotting animals and providing interesting information about them. He is a quiet person and passionate about his work. We highly recommend it if you want to take a tour in French!
A big thank you to Hugo for this superb tour of the park by boat! He is a warm, passionate and very pedagogical person: he taught us a lot about Tortuguero, the park and animals. Thank you again for this beautiful moment!
When we arrived it was a tropical downpour - they had very heavy duty rain ponchos that keep us dry. Our guide Barnal was very kind and knowledgeable. He made sure everyone saw the wildlife -even teeny tiny long-nosed bats! It amazes me the things he could spot! He took us deep into the canals where it was peaceful and magical. We saw crocodiles, caiman, an anteater, iguanas and so many birds! It was a great trip.
Both Jenni and Byron made us enjoy all the excursions. Byron eagle-eyed did not miss an animal, and showing great knowledge of the jungle. The wonderful canoe trip even though it rained us. And the night interesting.
The best guide to Tortuguero! Very interesting instructive. He has an eye, passion and kindness! One of the beautiful moments of our trip!
Superb tour with Hugo who makes us discover Tortuguero with lots of anecdotes and humor. He also knows the local fauna and made us discover this place.
