Highlights
  • Llanos de Cortés - We find ourselves with the most paradisiacal perfect pool that we have ever seen. The crystal-clear water, comes from a water source that apparently has no relation to the river of the main waterfall. It has a depth of over 2 meters.
  • Guanacaste National Park - Enjoying the floating
    The Corobici River Floating Tour is the ideal trip for families, elderly, nature lovers, birders and even scientists. This trip combines soft adventure and a lot of nature observation.
    Enjoy an awesome tour down the river, one of Guanacaste`s most powerful river and home to abundant wildlife.
    The most surprising thing about this place is that it is in the driest province of our country, where we only see meadows like the African savannah, and even so, we can discover an oasis full of exuberant vegetation and corners that are worth a visit.
    - Guanacaste National Park - In the tours you can see: 2 and 3 toed sloths, masked frogs, KOLBI and Bluejean frogs, also we see more frequently in the mornings and afternoons the Iris-billed and Brown-billed Toucans and sometimes aracaris (It should be mentioned that the sightings at that time is higher), with respect to other types of birds, we get: momotidae, hummingbirds, trogons, tanagers and some sparrowhawks. Our trails are designed to be as quiet as possible (it has a layer of sand and stone, then another layer of sawdust) so that visitors can observe as many animals as possible without impacting the daily wildlife activity and at the same time that it is a comfortable walk for visitors

Guanacaste unforgettable - This tour was phenomenal in every way. Our guide Robert and all staff we met throughout the day were exceptionally courteous, knowledgeable, and enthusiastic about the adventures. Waterfalls, hanging bridges, and a beautiful river raft ride await you…in addition to sloths, crocodiles, and many more amazing creatures and plant life. You will not be disappointed by the delicious authentic lunch either.

Wild Nature and Adventure Combo by Destination Services was the best experience of our seven-day vacation in Costa Rica - Destination Services Wild Nature and Adventure Tour combo made up for all the travel nightmares caused by United Airlines, where we arrived a day late and had to pick up our bags at the airport on the 5th day of our seven-day vacation. See my separate review of Costco Travel's Westin Resort Reserva Conchal All-Inclusive vacation package on Trip Advisor. Also, my separate review of the Marlin Del Rey Catamaran sailing and snorkeling sunset cruise on Trip Advisor. This package included four stops and adventures. Heliconias Miravalles hanging bridges suspended along the rainforest treetops offers a spectacular view. We took a 1 1/2 hour walking tour along steep climbs between the bridges exploring the fauna and flora. @cataratas_llanosdelcortes waterfall park with the White-Headed Capuchin https://commons.m.wikimedia.org/.../File:White-Headed... at the entrance. Carlos, the bus driver, personally assisted my wife in climbing up and back. Sloth encounters a restaurant and garden where we saw a female two-toed sloth with a baby and two more three-toed sloths, Strawberry poison-dart frog https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strawberry_poison-dart_frog and other fauna and flora. More fauna and flora at the Sloth Encounter park: red ginger https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alpinia_purpurata, Rufus Motmot https://birdsforbeer.com/.../rufous-motmot-nesting-at.../, Mud wasps cave, Begonia coccinea Scarlet begonia https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Begonia_coccinea. A two-hour floating tour in a raft along the Corobici River, one of @_guanacaste most powerful rivers and home to abundant wildlife. We saw at least six Crocodiles https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crocodile several iguanas, including the Mexican spiny-tailed iguana https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ctenosaura_pectinata, roseate spoonbill https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roseate_spoonbill and white-faced capuchin monkeys, bats, mud wasp nests, among others. Roberto, the oarsman on the raft, kept us in stitches by howling at the monkeys, who would howl back at him. He also had sharp eyesight to spot wildlife of any size and camouflage. We also stopped (last bonus stop) at a reserve operated by a family where each of the three families was allowed to plant a small tree that we could watch growing over time through pictures that they would email us. We left the Westin at 7 am and returned to our hotel by 8 pm, the best 13 hours spent in Costa Rica.
