Our guide Juan Carlo was so knowledgeable, being low season it was just the two of us and our guide, which was a bonus! He took us deep into the mangrove forest and pointed out crocodiles, birds, and then he took us out into the forest to find howler monkeys, what a sight to see these animals in their native habitat. A wonderful experience!
Such a great experience!! Would definitely recommend, Moses was so knowledgeable on everything and made us feel so safe and confident welcome!
Amazing experience. They got us in very last minute, had us booked in no problem. Guide was both funny and knowledgeable. Tour was great. We were very lucky to see both crocodile and monkeys up close. Couldn't have been better
Its was fun, the kids really loved the experience
This was an excursion so worth the money!!! Our guide was so knowledgeable. He truly loved his job and made it fun for us. Seeing monkeys so many of them! Thank you
It was a great experience from start to finish lovely staff and great sights!
We saw monkeys and crocs. A lot of birds and crabs. Toward the end of tour we jump onshore into the woods to see a lot of wild life. Highly recommend experience. My two year old daughter is very happy with the animals and pineapples.
Juan Carlos was an amazing guide - incredibly knowledgeable and we loved his bird calls. We saw crocodiles, birds, and monkeys! Just the best time. Thank you!
It was great! I would again
Juan Carlos Orosco Mora was an EXCELLENT tour guide. He is knowledgeable about botany, biology, zoology, and history of the area. He made us aware of the great estuarial wonders of the Tamarindo province.
