Memorable sloth experience - We had a great time! Our tour guide, Ivania was incredible. She is extremely passionate about sloths and other animals native to Costa Rica. She showed us so many things we would have never seen without a guide. She also took many photos through her telescope for us to take home with us. Highly recommend this tour!

Sloth heaven! - The best of a bunch of great things we did in La Fortuna. Our guide Edson really knew a lot about the wildlife and was clearly interested in sharing it. We saw beautiful frogs, and 6 sloths including two mom-and-baby pairs! Some were snoozing but others were moving around. One was pooping right next to the trail!!! Also monkeys, lizards, butterflies. Not a difficult walk. Not too long. Mind blowing.

Wonderful private sloth tour with incredible photo memories - We loved our 2 hour tour through the jungle looking for sloths and other animals in their natural habitat! Our tour wound up being a private tour, with just the guide and my family as no one else signed up for the 1pm time slot. Our tour guide, Ivania, was incredibly friendly, skilled, and knowledgeable. As she located sloths for us to view, she also provided facts about the animals and plants in the jungle. She used her telescope to get closer images of the sloths higher in the treetops where they stay. We saw multiple 3-toed & 2-toes sloths, including a baby sloth hanging onto its mom. She was amazing at capturing photos through the telescope using my phone. She also took videos for us and patiently waited for the sloths to move a bit. Although this was a sloth tour, we also got amazing close up views of other jungle creatures and birds. My kids were thrilled to learn there were 2 hanging bridges within the jungle on the tour. This was a fun added surprise. At the end of the tour we were given delicious watermelon to eat. A sloth tour should be one of your experiences in Costa Rica and this tour in particular should be on your go-to list!

Beautiful Rainforest Walk with Many Sloths - Our guides were fantastic and we spotted multiple types of sloths. The guides also walked with a great scope on a tripod so she could help us see the sloths more clearly when they were up high in the trees. 10/10 would recommend!

Would go back in a heart beat! - Our guide Yara was amazing! She is really knowledgeable about sloth but also other animals that we encounter during our trail! She has a keen eye for spotting sloth! We saw about 5 of them in a very short period of time! We were able to take picture from her scope and it was one of the highlight of our trip to La Fortuna! 100% would recommend and would go back!
