A memorable experience - An excellent experience. All the mangrove boat tours basically follow the same pattern. Our tour guide Memo was fantastic, took the time to explain all the various aspects, never rushed us and made it a very worthwhile experience. If deciding between different activities, this one should be high on your list

great adventure - We had an amazing time with our tour guide Nicho! We saw the cappuchin monkey troops up close, lizards, iguanas, two different boas sleeping on trees, bats, exotic birds whose names cannot remember, many different species of heliconias. Nicho was very knowledgable and shared interesting stories and facts about the flora and the fauna. Would highly recommend!!

Worth it - We went on the field trip with crazy Alex, who imitates animals and calls monkeys. He managed to attract a monkey to the boat by offering bananas. It was a nice experience. The indicated duration is 2-3 hours but ours lasted 1h30

Matcha Adventure - We went on a special offer and ended up being on a private boat tour. Our guide spotted wild life and did monkey call. The tour is advertised as 2-3hrs but we came back in 1,5hrs. The river wasn't much crowded but still loud. We saw plenty and enjoyed it.

DO NOT BOOK THIS TOUR THROUGH VIATOR! - Tour operator argued with me for 45 minutes that we had the wrong company. I showed them my tickets and confirmation of payment. After they finally spoke with someone at Viator, they said we could go on the tour. The tour itself was good, but they wasted a lot of precious vacation time.
