Our driver was very informative and came along for the mangrove/crocodile tour as well as the turtle release. He translated for us and took pictures of the turtle release. It was a great day!

Our Driver George was so kind and amazing. He took us to about 5-6 different locations including the eco wildlife tour. However, once you get to the wildlife tour, the driver hands you off to their spanish speaking tour guides. They did not want to speak english. The crocodiles and the whole experience was AMAZING other than not being able to hear anything in english. Other tour locals were kind enough to translate for us since the boat / eco men would not.
Definitely worth doing

Armando was an excellent guide and far exceeded my expectations for this trip. Bring bug spray as you'll need it for the boat cruise.
