Everything was perfect here - the organization, the early morning atmosphere when the jungle woke up, the quiet gliding with the electric canoe and the sense of sense from our guide Nana. With the small canoe we had a clear advantage over the larger petrol-powered boats. First, we were ahead of most other boats, so before it got hustle and bustle. Besides, we got much deeper into the jungle than many others. Nana went into us individually and had really great know-how and knew every corner because he grew up there. I give the tour, the provider and the guide full points.

I went on a tour together with my husband and our three young kids and it was amazing! We enjoyed every second of it! The electric motor is silent so our guide really took us into the jungle, where other boats can't reach. This tour was 2,5 hours and we never felt in a hurry. It really was just us and the beautiful wildlife. We spotted all kinds of animals: turtles, lots of different birds, multiple caiman, monkeys, iguanas. At first I was a bit hesitant because our kids are young but they really really loved everything about this tour! As soon as we entered the boat, it felt very safe. The guide knew exactly what he was doing and he was so incredibly kind to us as parents and to our kids. He had so much knowledge and patience, we couldn't have wished for a better guide. Thank you so much! Would definitely recommend this tour, especially for families!
