Excellent view and nice walk in Park

YOGESH_S, Nov 2022

Farnando has really excellent knowledge of coast rica and the park. We enjoy a lot. I recommend this trip.

A day in the rainforest.

Darren_W, Aug 2022

Friendly guide. Lots to see on the trip. Great little stop offs along the way. Food provided was good with a good choice. Lucky to see lots of animals in the rainforest.

It's a must I'd you're in Costa Rica!!

Claudia_F, July 2022

This tour was amazing and we highly recommend it to anyone visiting Costa Rica. My husband ana I went on our honeymoon there ana we weren't disappointed in this tour. Our tour guide Oscar was very knowledgeable and always on the lookout for sloths or other animals around. He got us home safely even though there was a storm on our way back.

A long day traveling to the Pacific Coast of Costa Rica

Paul_L, Jan 2022

The Crocodile Bridge was very interesting. The beaches at Manual Antonio are spectacular. Lunch overlook the Pacific was very nice. Many "critters" to see inside the park. Park needed some repairs on the railings and a couple of spots were very slick from mud on the pathway, but otherwise a great trail to explore...just be careful of your footing. Highly recommend, but be prepared for a lot of "seat time" to get there and back.

Absolutely amazing!

This tour was incredible! We only had a few days on Costa Rica but this tour gave us a taste of so much! Our guide, Kenneth was friendly and extremely knowledgeable. 10/10, would take again!

Definitely recommended!

Jessica_B, Apr 2021

Kenneth was a great guide. All of the stops along our journey were great and would definitely recommend this tour. The beach was the best part of the day, followed by an amazing lunch with great views.

Fun!

Wow! What a great day. Nathaniel, our guide was great. He was super friendly, knowledgeable and patient. This was one of our favorite tours during our time in CR. The food was great, beach was pristine, the jungle was awesome (we saw a lot of monkeys, crocodiles and macaws). Bring waterproof and sand proof sneakers- you walk through the beach part of the trail.

Hidden paradise with monkeys

Sarah_B, Feb 2021

Our guide, Omar, was excellent. We were picked up from our hotel and dropped off at our next in Manuel Antonio. Manuel Antonio is absolutely gorgeous.. the beach, and the park was lovely too. We got to see lots of monkeys. The trail in the park is short though, but we had plenty of time to relax at the beach and have lunch.

Great day at the park!

Nisha_P, Oct 2019

Hernan was a great tour guide who knew exactly where to get the best views of different animals - we saw monkeys, sloths, and crocodiles (and countless iguanas)! We began the day with a traditional Costa Rican breakfast with a multitude of options, and ended in a nice restaurant with a beautiful view of the beach. I would recommend this tour for all ages!

Todo perfecto
