Night tour fortune - We did the night tour in fortune with Westler and left very happy. We stayed almost 2 hours in the forest and saw many frogs, insects, toads, snakes, etc. Westler is very attentive and friendly and rating that he loves animals and his work, we recommend it!

Highly recommended! - Wes was a very good guide, his knowledge and passion for nature were evident. Their enthusiasm and good humor made the experience very enjoyable and we always felt safe. It's worth taking the tour because we saw animals we wouldn't have seen without it.

Amazing experience with the best guide - It was such a wonderful experience to search for frogs, insects and snakes at night with Wesler. As a guide, he is superbly professional, nice and extremely patient. He has an eagle eye that could spot the beautiful creatures that others couldn't see. And he is super passionate about nature. I would recommend my friends to also come and discover the beauty of the little creatures in nature with Wesler.

Wesler will make your time in La Fortuna amazing! - We can't speak highly enough of Wesler. He made our time in La Fortuna amazing. He picked us up at our AirBnB, took us to the Hanging Bridges, showed us wildlife we never would have seen on our own, guided us up the volcano trail and constantly took pictures for us and told us unique information about the area. After that, he had a cute snack all set for us, took us to the hot springs, then to a great lunch, then the waterfall where he watched our stuff and took pictures of us in the water. Then he drove us back, all in an 8 hour span. He was worth every cent and more and we highly recommend any experience he offers.

La Fortuna in all it's grandeur is best seen with Wesler!! - Impressive tour guide, phenomenal person! From the moment we first spoke, Wesler took the time to know what was most important to us, then added his flare to make it happen. Met and exceeded the entire familys needs AND wants! He managed my 9 y/o that NEVER stopped talking to him, and impressed my 14 y/o (walking encyclopedia) with his knowledge. Of all the countries I've visited, all the tours taken, by far one of THE best yet! We will be talking about this for years to come!

👌👌👌 💯 - Excellent guides have both surprised me with their high knowledge; I told them that I wanted to see a specific type of viper, they looked for it and found, also various types of insect frogs and the fungi kingdom of the area.

A MUST to fully experience the wildlife and nature that Costa Rica has to offer! - We saw so many sloths, poison dart frogs, a Fer-de-Lance Viper, tree frogs, and a Jesus Cristo lizard which are beautiful by the way! I wouldn’t have seen any of these on my own, Wesslers’ eye proved to be highly attuned to these guys! This experience MADE my trip to Costa Rica

Look no further! Best guide! - This was my third time in La Fortuna and Wesler was by far the best guide I have ever had. His wildlife knowledge and spotting skills were A+ and he goes the extra mile in so many ways. You can tell he cares about the families and wants to provide an excellent experience. He was our guide for other experiences as well and was looking out for us at all times and helping us learn more about the culture of Costa Rica. His kindness and hospitality leave you feeling like you have not just hired a guide, but also made a friend. Pura vida!
