What To Expect
Often referred to as the "Amazon of Costa Rica," the Tortuguero Canals are one of the country’s most iconic natural attractions. This guided boat ride takes you through calm, narrow waterways surrounded by lush tropical vegetation, offering close-up views of local wildlife. With the help of your guide, you may spot sloths, howler monkeys, iguanas, caimans, and a wide variety of tropical birds. The boat is equipped with a roof, comfortable seats, and life jackets, making it a safe and relaxing experience for all ages.
Banana Plantation Tour And Gift Shop
Explore a local souvenir shop with authentic Costa Rican crafts and enjoy a complimentary tasting of freshly brewed coffee and flavored cacao (like caramelized or cinnamon). When available, a short 15-minute walk through the adjacent garden showcases tropical plants such as pineapple, cacao, cinnamon, ylang ylang, and noni. The highlight is a live demonstration of how a banana plantation processing system works, an engaging look at one of Costa Rica’s most important exports.

4.00I liked the boat ride. I did not like the shopping. I thought we would be going to a shopping center, not just one store. The park was not not what we expected. I thought we would see some birds eat. We did see a snake. And heard alot about native plants. The driver and the hostess was very nice. My wife had a hard time getting on the bus and they was very helpful and the hostess even took photos for her.
A must do tour

5.00Our Guide Rich and our driver Mario ,showed us the highlights of the area including wildlife in the cahita national park , and the canals. The tour was comfortable and informative, with A/C and wifi on the bus. Tour included modest amounts of walking, however this may not be suitable for people with mobility difficulties. The stops at souvenir shops were not that useful as the prices were much higher than at the port shops. Fruit and water was provided at one of the stops ,which was welcomed as the tour is a long tour. Optional lunch was offered at the end of the tour. It was an enjoyable full day tour with our warm and helpful guide Rich.

5.00We had such an amazing day trip to Cahuita National park that went far behind our expectations. Our guide was helpful and able to respond to every requests we had, she took us to the tortuguero canal and showed us the fauna along the canal. We were able to spot monkeys, sloths and caymans. Then we walked thorough the national park and saw different types of monkeys, colourful frogs, iguanas, racoons and more sloths. We then needed up our walk at Cahuita beach, a wild sandy beach in which we chilled out and had a swim. Our tour guide took us to experience some exotic fruits and we ended our tour in Puerto Limon. I would highly recommend this tour.
Delightful day!

5.00Delightful day! Tour guide Rosa was very friendly, knowledgeable, and great with spotting wildlife (sloths, monkeys, vipers, crocs) and using a laser pointer to point them out when difficult to see. A very nice variety of sites throughout the day. Would highly recommend. My only regret is that I had to travel alone, because my wife was filling ill that day and thus stayed on the ship. But we had a small group and the other couples on the tour were very friendly, which also added enjoyment to the day. (Took lots of pictures for my wife!)
Richie (sp) was a delight
