What To Expect
Get ready for an immersive experience in nature that will take you to discover the impressive biodiversity of the jungle. We will begin our adventure by walking along trails where, with a little luck and the guidance of our experts, you will be able to observe fascinating animals such as sloths, monkeys and exotic birds. As we go deeper into the jungle, we will reach a viewpoint with a view that will leave you breathless, a true natural spectacle that will connect you with the majesty of the environment. If conditions allow, this viewpoint is also the perfect place to watch surfers in action. Afterwards, we will continue our journey towards the river, where we will board kayaks to continue exploring this natural paradise. If conditions allow, we will also venture towards the sea, allowing you to live a complete aquatic experience. The contrast between the serenity of the river and the energy of the sea makes this tour something truly special. This adventure is not only an opportunity to enjoy the outdoors but also to learn and marvel at the natural wealth that surrounds us. Come and discover the jungle like you've never imagined before!

3.00Unfortunately didn’t get what I booked. I booked a tour with a female tour guide in the afternoon and what I got was a tour with a male guide in the morning. It was pouring rain, I was completely soaked. I tried to stay positive but as the weather got worse I was so cold and not enjoying the tour. I would have preferred transparant communication. Just tell me you’re not able to do the tour and give a refund, so I could have gone with another tour in the afternoon (when it was dry, just as it was forecasted). Now it feels like money is more important than the experience of the guests. I must say the male guide was friendly and shared a lot of facts, but the weather and communication ruined the experience for me. If you do get the advertised tour, I’m sure it will be a better experience.
Wonderful!

5.00We ended up on a private tour with Roberto Vasquez and he was an incredibly knowledgeable local tour guide that showed and taught us about all the local wildlife. He was very talented at spotting the animals and provided us with fresh coconut between the hike and the kayaking. We had such a great time and would thoroughly recommend him as a tour guide.
Such a fun experience!!!

Great time!

5.00Great tour! So much history and knowledge of the area, the people, the animals, insects and flora was shared with us. The hike was very manageable for us 55 year olds and the kayaking was peaceful. Highly recommend!
