Guided tour in Carara National Park

Jeison was an excellent guide. He spotted animals that we could never see. It was a wonderful experience.

Jeison was great - super knowledgeable about the trees, birds, animals in Carara. We got some great photos and had fun amidst a big rain - make sure to bring bug spray!

Amazing tour! Worth every penny and step 😁 Jason is SO knowledgeable about the park! We saw so many animals, learned A LOT about the plants and trees and got to see things you'll absolutely miss without somebody as talented and well versed as Jason! Reasonably priced private tour but you get the care and quality as if you paid $100 per person! The tour was the perfect amount of time to see all 3 trails and fully immerse in the park ❤️ Wonderful experience, I cannot recommend this enough! If you go without a guide, you'll miss it all! Beautiful, well done, great pace and just overall an exceptional tour

Excellent guided tour of Carara Park. We were unlucky with the weather; it rained during the activity, but Jason was incredible and still allowed us to see quite a few animals (capuchins, frogs, howler monkeys, etc.)! We also learned more about the forest, the trees, etc. I wholeheartedly recommend this activity!

Yostin was a fantastic tour guide and enthusiastic bird nerd 😄! We even had the option to sta longer than expected and see more! Highly recommended.

What an incredible hike! Our tour guide Yostin was amazing. We saw many different species of birds, lizards, coati, agouti, insects, spiders, sleeping bats, and an incredible anteater! We learned about the local fauna and local history. The trail was very easy for the adults and the children (ages 5-10). Our guide helped us capture some amazing photos with his telescope too! Wonderful experience!

Jeison was amazing. He was so knowledgeable of the native flora and fauna and showed us animals on his spotting scope (not sure if that’s what the lens is called) that we NEVER would’ve seen alone ourselves. We saw beautiful birds, insects, trees, flowers, lizards, and even a snake; it was gorgeous. He was so kind and the tour was very peaceful but still very fun! 10/10 and would do it again.

Our tour with Yostin in Carara National Park proved to be a highlight of our Costa Rica adventure. His enthusiasm for and knowledge about the park and its wildlife kept us immensely engaged. We saw numerous birds and bats, snakes and ants (amazing!) and more, learning so much about each of them. His depth of knowledge was impressive! Without him, we would have walked right by and without his telescope would have missed up close views and pictures. He literally made that wonderful place come alive for us. Highly recommend!!

Here's your finished Tripadvisor review: We had a fantastic tour with Jeison in Carara National Park! Jeison was incredibly personable, spoke impeccable English and delighted us with so much exciting knowledge of the park as well as the flora and fauna. What was particularly great was that he took us to two additional spots where we could safely see red macaws – they were still on our bucket list, and thanks to him we were finally able to tick them off! In the park itself he took a lot of time for us and did not just rush through. We could observe staple monkeys, a black-green poison frog, various lizard species, a deer and many impressive bird species. We also had a long and pleasant conversation about Costa Rican traditions and learned even more about the country. Finally, he gave us a great recommendation for a soda (La Tranca) – we were there and absolutely delighted. A great tip! Thank you, Jeison, for this unforgettable experience!

After visiting Carara National Park we highly recommend hiring a guide like Jeison. Very knowledgeable and he taught us a lot about the wildlife and ecosystem around the park. He showed us all the little hiding spots he knew where we could see wildlife. Called upon the birds so we could get closer pictures. Thank you Jeison, from Sweden!
