The Mangrove Forest is one of the most vital and outstanding ecosystems in the world. Covering thousands of acres of protected forest, this amazing environment is home to a large number of birds, reptiles, mammals and insects. Approximately 70% of its wildlife is nocturnal, a fact that has made the Night Mangrove Tour one of our most fascinating adventures. Our professional team will take you on a unique exploration of the mangroves in search of crocodiles, turtles, boas, lizards, bats, birds, crabs, raccoons, anteaters, and more. You will be safely transported through the mangrove channels on our fully equipped boat (there will be no walking on this tour). Discover and enjoy some of the most amazing wonders and secrets of this incredible ecosystem.
Experience the thrill of the jungle at night with our Mangrove Night Boat Tour. Immerse yourself in the natural world of Costa Rica and get up close to some of the most impressive species of mangroves. Watch as crocodiles, boas, bats, anteaters, sloths, birds, crabs, and more come to life right before your eyes. This epic adventure will make you feel like you're in a movie!

The ride was cancelled due to a rain storm. There was no follow up regarding refunds or reschedules. Lots of finger pointing on who to contact but no help whatsoever
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We are sorry to hear that the way your experience concluded left you disappointed. We would, however, like to respectfully clarify an important point regarding your review. The tour was not cancelled before it began. The activity operated as scheduled and the majority of the tour was completed. Unfortunately, toward the end of the experience, weather conditions deteriorated and a significant rainstorm developed. For the safety of our guests and staff, the decision was made to conclude the activity slightly earlier than originally planned. Safety is always our highest priority, particularly during outdoor activities where weather conditions can change quickly. While we understand that having the final portion of an activity interrupted is disappointing, our guides must make decisions based on the conditions present at that moment and the safety of everyone participating. Regarding your comments about a refund or rescheduling, we would also like to clarify that our team did not receive a direct request from you for either option following the tour. Therefore, we did not have an opportunity to review your concerns or provide further assistance at that time. We are sorry if there was any confusion regarding whom to contact. We always encourage our guests to contact our customer service team directly whenever there is a concern with an experience so that we have the opportunity to review the circumstances and provide appropriate assistance. We appreciate your feedback and regret that the unexpected weather conditions affected the conclusion of your experience. At the same time, we hope you can understand that ending the activity early under deteriorating weather conditions was a decision made with the safety and well-being of everyone involved in mind. Warm regards, Costa Rica Jade Tours Tour Operations & Customer Support Department
