5.00We loved this tour! Would recommend the company and our guide, Saul, for a great introduction to Costa Rica’s natural beauty and abundant wildlife. We would have missed so many animals, plants, and birds without Saul. He took a lot of photos for us as well.

5.00I loved the guided visit in Manuel Antonio Park! Our guide was amazing (Raul Guzman), knowledgeable, friendly, excellent. We spent 2 hours in the park with him and then another 2 hours by ourselves, following his recommendations of hike and beaches. It was a very last-minute arrangement, at 8pm for 7am the following morning, but it was all perfectly communicated and organised. Thank you!
Saul is an awesome nature guide

5.00Saul was an excellent tour guide. We would not have seen a fraction of the wildlife he spotted without him and the pictures we were able to take through his scope came out excellent. He left us with tips on what to do with the rest of our day in the park. Saul was knowledgeable, friendly, and very professional. Highly recommend if you are going Manuel Antonio; it would have been a much lesser experience without him.
