Amazing sightings at great value for money

The overall experience of this nature walk was amazing and would recommend to anyone visiting La Fortuna. The meeting location is easy to get to and clearly signposted. Asiel, our guide, made this trip amazing. He was extremely friendly and knowledgable and was able to spot wildlife and animals from a mile out. We saw all kinds of exotic animals and Asiel was able to provide so much more interesting information to us. The walk is through a private sanctuary set in the rainforest which provides you with a very personalised experience that you wouldn’t get in most places. Overall, I would highly recommend this experience and is priced very well and seems to be a lot cheaper than lots of other experiences in town!

super!

A super interesting afternoon; in the short time, thanks to the very competent guide, we saw and observed sloths, frogs, birds, and much more that we would never have discovered on our own! Pura vida!

If visiting Costa Rica I would encourage you to find a different company.

The number provided was invalid. After attempting to call several times to move our tour time due to our coffee tour running over. And I was out of my money. There are several options in the area with the tourist in mind. I wish I booked them instead. So if you don’t wanna get scammed I would go with a different company.

Intriguing experience with lots of sloths!

My husband and I had an excellent experience, this sloth tour was our favorite due to how much wildlife we saw! Our tour guide was very skillful at finding at least seven sloths (2 & 3 toed) for us. Other unseen species we witnessed include the green and black poison dart frog, agouti, red eye tree frog eggs, and a toad. This was a private forest so I’d say we spotted more wildlife than usual. The guide has such good eyes, he’ll let you see the sloths very high up in the branches through his telescope. It’s very difficult to spot sloths without a professional guide, since many are high up and hidden. Highly recommend this tour. Make sure to wear mosquito repellent.

Will not recommend this tour

Extremely disappointing experience. We arrived at the meeting point ahead of time and found no staff available to assist us. One guide briefly appeared, told us another guide would be arriving shortly, and then left. We waited for quite some time, but no one ever showed up. The location was difficult to access, and by the time we realized nobody was coming, it was already dark. We ended up having to leave without participating in the activity, wasting both our time and money. What was even more frustrating was the response from the tour operator. When we contacted them to explain the situation and request a refund, they were dismissive and unprofessional. They offered no explanation, no alternative date, and no effort to make things right. Our refund request was simply denied. Customer service matters most when something goes wrong, and unfortunately both the tour operator and the support we received fell far below expectations. I would not book with this operator again and would strongly encourage others to consider alternative options.

Highly Recommended Tour

Amazing wildlife tour! Our guide was super friendly, attentive, and gave us many helpful tips outside of the tour as well. We would have never seen so many animals without him. Highly recommended!

12/10 Tour!

We had an incredible experience on this nature tour and loved seeing all of the wildlife! What really made the guide really stand out was our guide— Asil's enthusiasm was absolutely contagious, where you could tell he genuinely loves all the wildlife (insects included), making the tour much more engaging and fun! He answered every one of our many questions, no matter what the topic, making us walk away with so much appreciation for everything we saw. Cannot recommend this tour enough to anyone of any age (as it was an easy walk even at night!)!
