Mangrove Boat tour - We did the Mangrove boat tour. Our guide Alvin was very friendly, knowledgeable and provided lots of information throughout the tour. Our driver also went above and beyond to help us spot wildlife on the way to and from the tour. They truly made it a great experience and we would highly recommend them!

Nice experience - The mangroves are very beautiful and there are many different types of animals to see. I went on the boat tour instead of kayaking, originally I wanted to go kayaking but the boat is a very good option too. And the guide Karla Alvarado is super fun and she really knows the area. It was a pleasure to do this tour!

Magic in the Mangroves - Videos and research didn't quite prepare me for the actual experience of floating through these incredible expressions of strength, resilience, beauty, and pura vida. The road there freaked me the eff out but being greeted by Gustavo and welcomed into his home with his mom, Mary, and dad, William (who runs the boat tours). We got equipped with lifejackets, settled any remaining balances and placed orders for our homemade lunch (yes and it's fabulous) and ushered to the kayaks. Took a tandem with my daughter and we marveled at all that the mangrove offered - from tiger herons to the mangroves themselves - which were navigated one kayak by one kayak and watching my big girl move through a real-life Pandora -- priceless and magical. After the two-hour tour which involved our guide, Gustavo, hanging back for a bit to talk us through what we were seeing or hearing... and sometimes couldn't see like how this ecosystem has protected itself and the land the way it has... the dinner (we had it closer to 5) was magnificent. Yes, another casado. But an excellent one at that. If you got fidgety folks or don't like to get dirty or risk getting wet, take the boat tour. Also there are no croccodiles - do don't fear or don't expect them here. But do it. This is a beautiful fam of guides. Pura vida!

Fabulous trip - Our guide was marvellous, making the trip through the mangroves both interesting and relaxing. We saw raccoons, monkeys and various birds and learned of the importance of the mangroves.

Happy kayaker - We took the kayaking through the Mangrove tour and our tour guide Allen was very knowledgeable. I haa as s never been in a kayak before, but by end of trip I felt like a pro-

A great experience I would recommend! - The kayaking route is great for beginners or paddling lovers! There is so much wildlife to see and cool areas to explore within the mangroves! The guide did a great job sharing tons of information about the area/ecosystem while also explaining the culture of the people/civilizations of this area as well! 10/10 !

Kayaking is fun! - The mangrove kayak tour is very unique and unlike the other tours I’ve done while in Costa Rica. I was blessed to have Alberto Rojas as my guide and his wisdom and energy for the wildlife is contagious. He stopped the bus even on the way to the mangrove to point out wildlife. The kayaking does require some moderate strength and thus would recommend you be in shape if you want to do this but the kayaking itself was so peaceful. As commented in other reviews, not as much wildlife but if you want a fun experience and enjoy kayaking this is a must do. Hopefully you’ll get Alberto because he made the experience great just to talk with him and learn from him. 10/10.

Punctuality and Quality - We found out about this company through very good recommendations and the truth is they were right, we highlighted their punctuality in the tour, the service, everything worked super well, if you visit Manuel Antonio do not hesitate to see their diversity of service you will not regret it. As the only point, I think it would be good to have a little more explanation of the use of the kayak at the beginning of the tour when one is a beginner. Otherwise great!!!

Relaxed Kajak Tour - The two tour guides told us a lot about Costa Rica, the surrounding area of ​​Quepos, the animals and the national park. Food and drink were enough and were pretty good.

Get a bit active - We took this tour as part of a group tour, paying at time of activity. If you pay cash (US or Colones), it will be cheaper. Fruit snack before hitting kayaks and lesson given to group. All equipment provided (life best, paddle, kayak). Lockers available for free and bring a wet bag if you plan to carry personal items. Paddle with guide and spot monkeys and other critters as you paddle. Relaxing float time provided.
