An adventurous night in the jungle! - What a unique experience to walk through the jungle at night. We spotted many frogs, toads, crayfish, spiders, centipedes, caterpillars, moths and a couple of snakes one being the Fer de Lance. We even saw a couple of wild cats up in the trees. We walked along and through several streams . The meal at the end of the hike was in a lovely little forest eatery and the meal was delicious. The guides took good care of us making sure we were safe and were also very knowledgeable with information about the wildlife we saw. A great experience and a short 10 minute commute from Jaco.

Fun night time tour - My husband and I had a fun adventure that took us out of our comfort zone a bit, which I liked We were driven down a long, bumpy dirt road and then we parked and started our jungle walk. We honestly didn't see a whole bunch of critters but we did see a few (bird, snake, spider and other insects). The ambiance of walking, in the jungle, down an actively flowing river bed, that started from a waterfall, coupled with the rain, and being in Costa Rica was priceless! Geriold was a wonderful guide and was able to spot the smallest of insects so easily. He took us to a restaurant close to where we hiked that had wonderful food. I definitely recommend this tour if you want to do something different.

nightlife tour - This tour was a great experience! i never thought i would be interested in hiking in the dark forests looking for insects and/or snakes. Unfortunately we didn’t get to see any snakes but seen many frogs and insects…I recommend this tour because it’s something that is out of the ordinary and that’s what makes it fun. It also ended with a delicious meal and ice cream!

About yesterday - The tour started around 30 minutes late, because a couple was too late.To make up for the time we had to rush through the jungle, it felt very stressful to me. The guides were trying hard. I think it would have been a good tour, had we started on time...
