Brandon was fantastic! The tour is great. We got to experience the jungle at night, with all its sounds. We saw plenty of different type of frogs, beetles that glow, a snake etc... brandon helped us taking photos with our phones (he takes great shots). Would recommend as long as the group is small. We were 9, and it was enough.

This was the first tour my daughter and I took in Costa Rica, and it was amazing. Tony was an incredible guide: spotting and identifying frogs, birds, spiders, and snakes all while teaching us about the rainforest around us. He also took incredible pictures to share with us!

Absolutely fantastic. I cannot say enough about how wonderful our guide, Jorge, was. He was so knowledgeable, patient, funny, and helpful. Our group was also awesome and comprised of people from many countries. I travel as much as my budget and time allow, and this has to be one of the best excursions I've taken anywhere. We say many animals, as some laughs, and learned a lot. Tonight was perfect and my heart is full. I'm so grateful.
