Great night walk with Pablo - We had a great night walk with Pablo. We each got a flashlight and started looking for frogs, insects, birds and other animals. The walk is on private property and Pablo has given a lot of explanation about the animals and plants we have seen. There was plenty of time to take photos and admire the animals. Although it rained for most of the walk (which the frogs like 😉), it lasted 3 hours and we saw a lot. You can even email him the photos if you don't know which animal is in the photos.

Great adventures night tour, to learn more about the nught animals - It was a great experience. We booked the tour believing we were part of a group but no, we had a prived tour. Our tour guide was quite new but he proved him self worthy. He is very friendly and professional. But most of all skilled and funny. We had a very interesting tour and saw all the animals we would like to see. Do not hesitate to book this tour. It is great.

Amazing, how beautiful it is in the dark - After searching for where we needed to be (the address is not entirely correct, it was 3 minutes earlier than the navigation indicated. And a fairly small sign with the name on it) Paolo was already waiting for us. We soon set off, and we saw quite a few beautiful things, many species of frogs, an armadillo, spiders, lizards, birds, stick insects, a raccoon, geckos, honey bear, too many to mention. Paolo had so much knowledge and it was so beautiful that they set up this area as a family. I would recommend this trip to everyone. THANK YOU!

A very educational tour - Our Guido Pablo was more than excellent. You could tell he was very enthusiastic about flora and fauna, especially frogs. He has an excellent eye and described everything to us in great detail. It seems to be a small family business. Really highly recommended

Felt like we were in another world 🦥 - Hello from Montreal 🤩. Enriching and personalized experience. Paolo was a more than excellent guide with all the information he gave us. He was ready to answer our thousand and one questions. It’s a little corner of paradise that this family has created, a dream backyard if you will. With incredible patience, it was a most pleasant moment. I'm not one to spoil the surprise so I'll let you venture towards this VIP experience because it was just the two of us!!!! It is definitely worth it if you want to see all kinds of reptiles, amphibians, mammals, insects and plants. Once again, a passionate, patient, intelligent, funny and friendly guide for a visit that exceeds our expectations. I would recommend to all my friends without hesitation. Ps. I leave you with a photo of a blue morphon sleeping. A little pearl among many others 😉!

Sarapiqui Xperience rocks - We had a delightful night time walk through the rain forest with Sarapiqui Xperience and can recommend it highly. The walk is an easy stroll and the guide's flashlight illuminated numerous frogs, insects (including one in process of molting), sleeping birds, and one sloth. We were given good flashlights as well and discovered frogs and insects ourselves. All in all, a magical experience we were very happy we had on our itinerary.

Poor, no communication from local guide. - I, unsuccessfully tried to reply to this message the night of the event. There was a steady downpour in the hours before the scheduled departure. Approximately one hour prior to departure I texted the local guide, inquiring about the likelihood of the event continuing. I repeated that appeal about 30 minutes later; followed shortly by a phone call - leaving a voice message. Particularly given that no one answered the phone at the site where we were meeting, I made the assumption that no one was there and the event was cancelled. I never received any response from my messages.
