Douglass picked us up at our hotel. He is knowledgeable and pointed out many interesting things, including monkeys, an anteater, and birds we would have missed. I would highly recommend using a guide.

My husband and I booked this private tour to the Cabo Blanco Reserve and we were so lucky Ernesto was our guide. This was our first visit to Costa Rica and we wanted to relax and take it in. We booked 1 excursion and this was amazing. Ernesto is not only a kind and fun young man, his knowledge and love of the area blew us away. We are so grateful we got connected. Pura Vida to the max!

Super well organized tour in beautiful nature. What made the tour the best I've been on was definitely our tour guide Ernesto! He was so knowledgeable and very committed to teaching his knowledge of the jungle. Incredibly lovely and kind person. He was always so concerned that we would have a good time.
