Really enjoyed tour with Kevin! Saw a lot of animals, and it was actually super fun. The Toucans were definitely the best part for me.
A great night hike with an even better guide

This was hands down one of our favorite activities on our vacation. Kevin was an exceptional guide. Along with being very personable, knowledgeable, and a pleasure to talk with, he has a nose for finding animals. While he cautioned at the outset that you never can tell what might happen, he managed to find 2 mother sloths with their babies, toucans, hummingbirds, frogs, a bat eating a fig, armadillos, tarantula, scorpion, and an Olingo. Not only this, but he gets great pictures too! The hike itself wasn’t too bad and takes you through the forest as well as an old farm that is being rewilded. Would recommend this to anyone visiting.
Unforgettable Night Walk with Kevin – Highly Recommended!

Our family of seven adults joined Kevin for a rainforest night walk, and it was an absolute highlight of our trip. Kevin’s expertise, enthusiasm, and sharp eyes made all the difference – he spotted wildlife we’d never have seen on our own and shared fascinating insights with humor and respect for the environment. In one incredible evening, we spotted: an active sloth, two toucans, bats, a tarantula, a possum, various spiders, a “moot moot” (his hilarious local name!), orchids, a snake, and several nocturnal birds. Kevin paced the tour perfectly, ensured everyone got great views through his spotting scope, and kept the experience fun and educational. He’s a true naturalist and outstanding guide. Book with him – you won’t be disappointed! Five stars!
Excellent! Night walk, cloud forest, bird watching. Fun, safe, knowledgeable, fluent EN. Highly recommend Kevin.

Excellent guide. Many critters and birds. Safe driver, fluent EN, knowledgeable and punctual. Highly recommend for the night walk, cloud forest and birdwatching. Saw green viper, toucans, quetzel bird, white faced monkeys, tarantula, howlers, and the list goes on. Plenty of pictures thru his telescope. You will be very pleased you hired Kevin.

Kevin was an excellent guide! We were able to see glass frogs, several other frogs, woolly opossum, raccoons, porcupines, a tarantula, a sleeping toucanet, bats, and several native birds. Kevin also taught us about several plant species and the history of the reserve. He was incredibly nice and we had a great time!
Fabulous night tour!

Kevin was a great guide. Spotted some amazing wildlife on an engaging tour through the diverse forest. Definitely a highlight of our trip to Costa Rica!

An interesting way to see the local area! We took several guided tours around CR and this is the only one I would do again. There is no way you can or should be in the rainforest in the dark without a guide. It was a special experience! And YES- it is in the DARK even at 6pm! It rained during our tour but with so much canopy it was not much of an issue. Wear closed shoes (not hiking sandals!)
Such a vibe

Kevin was fantastic. He seemed to be the guy who found stuff and told other guides where to look. We got to see a sloth, black porcupine, armadillo and multiple toucans among other things. He was very informative about the plant life and bugs frogs and spiders. Highly recommend
Amazing night tour!

My family including 3 kids did the night tour at Lantana with Kevin and it was fantastic! We know seeing certain animals can not be promised, but we were lucky enough to see several toucans, a tarantula, a porcupine, an armadillo, and an active sloth amongst others. Totally exceeded our expectations and would highly recommend. We had flashlights and felt safe the whole time and Kevin was so kind as to get pictures and video of the animals for us.
