- Manuel Antonio National Park - Upon gathering at our designated meeting spot, your guide, who is officially certified by the ICT (Costa Rica Tourism Board), will introduce themselves and inform you of the guidelines to follow during the excursion.\n\nThroughout our journey, we will traverse at least four distinct paths within the Park, observing an array of wildlife that includes monkeys, sloths, lizards, amphibians, snakes, birds, and insects. This area is renowned for its biodiversity. Additionally, we’ll have the chance to capture stunning photographs using our HD spotting scopes, ensuring you have lasting memories of your visit.\n\nOpting for a morning tour allows additional time to savor the beach post-tour, whereas the afternoon may not afford the same leisure due to the Park’s closing time at 3:00pm.\n\nAfternoon excursions tend to be less congested than their morning counterparts. Should you wish to spend time at the beach during an afternoon tour, your guide will have an alternative ‘plan B’ to maximize your enjoyment!

Thank you for an unforgettable tour - Incredible tour, tour guide (Mop) could spot the tiniest animals kilometres away like Legolas in the Lord of the rings. He could probably see cells separate through mitosis his sight was so sharp! We had a great time and loved learning more about Costa Rican flora and fauna while respecting as much as possible its animals and plants. Highly recommended

Good memories of wildlife and friendly group in a beautiful place. - Our tour guide named Mop was very knowledgeable about all the wildlife. We mostly stayed on the main trail which was busy with many tour groups. Would have been nice to go deeper into the forest, but we were limited on the 2 hour tour. We saw all of the wildlife we had hoped to see (monkeys, sloths, lizards, bats, birds and brightly colored insects. Then it ended on the park beach with some rain just starting. Good memories.

A great deal for all we saw! - We took a 2-hour tour at Manuel Antonio with our guide Mop, he had a deep knowledge of the area and was really great and engaging. We would have only seen a small fraction of wild animals without his keen eye and we enjoyed learning from him. He took photos through his scope and then air dropped them to us so that we could just be present in the moment. Highly recommend seeing the park this way!

Great Tour with Exceptional Customer Service - Exceptional customer service with Edwin sending a detailed email the day before the tour, then meeting us, standing in line, and entering the park with us in order to introduce us to our tour guide, Felix. Felix insured we saw everything through his standing binocular and took pictures through the binoculars with our cellphones, so I have lots of great pictures to relive these memories. Felix shared a lot of information about the area and what we were seeing. We were able to book a Cacao and Coffee tour for later that same day through Felix with a different tour guide. We'll worth the money to take this tour.

Parque Nacional tour with Saul - Saul was the guide for my friend and I on a tour on Parque Nacional on Monday, August 11th. He was very personable and spoke English very well. He was most knowledgeable about all the animals. He knew where to find small spiders that we would have missed without him. He brings a telescope to see the wildlife up close in their natural habitat and took pictures through the telescope on our phone for us to keep. Don't go to the rain forest without a guide, it would have been a totally worthless adventure without Saul. I highly recommend him and this tour company.

- The park was amazing. Saul, our guide, was great, and pointed out wildlife that we would've missed on our own. He also had a scope for better viewing and photos.
