Nature at night!

5.00Good activity. We spent just over 90 minutes on the trail where a number of nocturnal creatures, mainly insects, were pointed out. Despite pouring rain and only two of us in the group, the organizer did not cancel on us. We appreciated their vast knowledge about The natural elements in this area. The only suggestion I have is to clarify the starting point as we had a taxi drop us off at the wrong location, however we were able to contact the organizer through WhatsApp.
Great way to spend an evening in Mindo

5.00Amazing tour of the beautiful and creepy creatures of the night. The tour guides are a really knowledgeable, fun couple that love what they do and bring so much experience to an action packed night. This was one of the best tours that I've ever been on, not just in Ecuador, but anywhere!

5.00Lovely knowledgeable family/guides. They went out of their way to find cooperative creatures. The wife/mom went down into the swamp with a flashlight immersing with a glass frog for us to examine up close!
Unique and cool thing to do!

5.00Wonderful experience. Our guide, Neri, was great and we saw some really cool things. They gave us boots and flashlights, etc. so we were all kitted out. I got to hold the really mean looking, but gentle and sweet, scorpion spider!
Fascinating!

5.00This was a wonderful night walk. We were able to see tarantulas and other spiders, lizards, insects and the glass frogs which were spectacular. Our guide, William, also spoke great English! I would highly recommend this walk.
