A beautiful expirience - The canoe tour is highly recommended, it's extremely fun and you see lots of animals. Take the tour with the guide Andy. I was with a group in Spanish, but the guide speaks English perfectly.

Animals, adventure and a great guide - We did a tour with Andy through the canals and then a walk, it was an amazing experience! Our family had a great time and it was great fun from start to finish. Andy is an excellent guide, with a lot of knowledge and always attentive that we enjoyed the tour. We could see many animals such as alligators, sloths, monkeys, toucans and many more. We definitely recommend it, it made our visit unforgettable.

Unforgettable experience - The experience was great. Our guide was Marco and he gave us michos details of both the species we were seeing and others that might be there. We saw several alligators, basilisks, iguanas, tiger heron, blue and others that I don’t remember the name. It was so worth it.

Scammer tour operators hide instruction to reach the island - They are a scam tour. First they don't tell you how to reach the residential/islandic area in Tortuguero. We drove almost an hour into this bad road with water logging and had to turn back since couldn't go further. Asking someone living in that road, they said you have to go back and take a boat. Nobody tells you this, as talking to someone on the boat who does similar tours, sneaked in the fact that they do this on purpose. The tour guide was also not responsive on Whatsapp. We were a no show for this reason and hence lost our money too. Be careful!
