Incredibly Talented Guide! - Mauro was brilliant - one of the best at spotting hard to see wildlife. He was very knowledgeable about the floral and fauna of the park. Wildlife is always unpredictable but we saw 3 types of monkey, 2 types of sloth, and many bats, birds, bugs, and lizards. Mauro was also very understanding about changing plans.

Marvellous hikes! - We booked Mauro through our AirBnB and did a daytime Manuel Antonio Park tour and then a few days later a night hike. The day hike was crowded due to the holidays but Mauro maneuvered our group through the throngs to some amazing animals, birds, and insects. He is really skilled with his scope plus iPhone. Our pictures are clear and certainly brag worthy. With the night hike we have been on several night hikes but this one was excellent due to Mauro’s sharp eyes and explanations. We spent two hours wandering the trails in the dark and felt very safe with Mauro.

Worth it! - Amazing experience with Mauro in Manuel Antonio Park. Saw so many animals we never would have seen. We went with the private tour to maximize our time and didn’t regret it. Saw sloths, monkeys, crabs, birds none of which we would have seen without Mauro’s guidance and spotting scope. Totally worth it!

More an adventure than a tour! 100% recommendation!!! - Mauro is extremely knowledgeable about everything and anything you could see on his tour! More an adventure really. He was able name every bit of flora and fauna we encountered. He told us about their history and origins too. Had we not had Mauro, we would not have seen 5% of what he spotted for us. We really appreciated that he encouraged us to point stuff out and ask questions. Getting the photos and videos he took on our adventure is a huge bonus! This was an absolutely fantastic adventure! I very highly recommend Mauro!

Fantastic Guide - Mauro was a fantastic guide. He gave us clear instructions of how to navigate to safe and easy parking, and to meet him. Without him, we would have never seen all of the sloths, birds, insects, cauti, monkeys, spiders, etc. His telescope let us see so many amazing living creatures up close. One added benefit, he took photos of every creature we saw through his telescope and airdropped us the photos at the end. This allowed us to put down our phones and just observe nature without worrying about taking photos. We would have never seen all we did without him. Highly recommend taking this tour!

JJ spotted so many cool animals we would’ve missed on our own - Jordan (or JJ) was an amazing guide. You could tell how much he enjoyed what he did and spent a lot of time searching and successfully finding a ton of wildlife. He was super knowledgable about all of the plants, insects, mammals and birds and spotted a lot of things we just would never have seen. He had a great scope and could spot a lot of things from far away which allowed us to see them better and get great photos. We saw monkeys, sloths, snakes, birds insect etc etc. Also getting a guide is 100% worth it as they share info with each other if they spot something cool. Again the experience was great and would highly recommend JJ!
