The best tortoise guide - Super recommended. Gabriel has been very respectful of animals and has explained in detail everything about animals and plants. He was very concerned that all the members of the canoe saw the animals. A 10 experience and a 10 for Gabriel who also made recommendations to us as a turtlemaker.

10 canoe adventure - Super super recommended. We did the activity by canoe and already the experience seeing animals and a paradise landscape is very worth it. But also, thanks to Gabriel we could see alligators and other species that he detected and knew to tell us everything interesting about them. Plus super nice at all times and worrying about us living the experience to the fullest. In short a 10

Great tour guide - Gabriel is very passionate about his work and is extremely knowledgeable. He goes above and beyond to make sure you have a great time and helped us take some brilliant photos. We did both the canal tour and the night walk and both were excellent. He is super friendly and helpful. Gabriel took us into a backwater which was so stunning it made us both emotional with gratitude to see such a beautiful place and to experience this was very special to us. I’d 100% recommend Gabriel if you are visiting Torteguero.

Once in a lifetime experience in Tortuguero - One of the best experience of my life, and I've traveled a lot ! Tortuguero is breathtaking and exploring it on the canals is magical. Gabriel made sure we didn't get to close to other groups making it feel private. He will spot all animals, herons, caimans, iguanas,... show them and explain everything about them and the nature of the parc. Very kind, friendly, the final treasure of Tortuguero is him!!! Be sure to select Gabriel also for the day walking trail end the night walk! I recommend 1000 %

Such a great tourguide, I booked a second tour with him! - I went kayaking with Gabriel and one of my friends. It was so much fun, Gabriel felt like a friend with a lot of knowledge. He asked us if there was anything specific we wanted to see, and really looked out for those! I later booked a night walk with Gabriel too, so I would 10/10 recommend!
