Great experience, highly recommended - Unforgettable experience. They were very friendly; there was a mix-up with our reservation and we were compensated with private visit for the 4. Our guide, Victor, was very helpful, with very technical explanations, much knowledge and interest to show us the very impressive nature of your country. Please note: as for the tripadvisor reservation, we consider that it should be better indicated that the entrance to the venue is not included so to the final price you have to add 13 dollars per person that are paid in the park.

Great family run company! - I did a night tour in the forest last week. It was an incredible experience. My guide George Jr was a wealth of knowledge and information, who led the tour with perfect English. I would highly recommend to any solo travellers! The photos he shared with me after the tour created such a memorable experience.

Highly talented guide - George junior was a very talented guide. He was very kind, spotted the animals very quickly and had a lot of humor. He answered all the questions we had and was very enthusiastic and passionate about the forest and its inhabitants.

Great! - I read a lot of reviews and basically you'll have a good experience if you get lucky and a good guide, and we did! George Junior was great and Vitor - our guide - was amazing! We got to see a lot! A kinkajou, a sloth, a frog, a snake, and a lot of insects and spiders (including his favourite, the ogre face spider :)). He was absolutetly amazing and very knowledgeable. Don't let the young age fool you, these guys know what they are doing!!! We booked from our hotel but do yourself a favor and book directly.

Wonderful night hoke experience - What an amazing experience! The guide knew so much about the forest and had a great eye when it came to spotting the animals!

Amazing night hike with George - George is a great guide! He is a native to the area and has an intense passion for the cloud forest. I highly recommend booking with George. We saw a sloth, insects, mycelium bark, a pit viper, toucan, quetzel, an armadillo, and at the end the sky had opened up to see the stars. Not all animals are picture for my review.

Night tour - Fun experience, despite the rain! We saw a really cool pit viper, some spiders, frogs, a sleeping toucan, and lots of insects. Guide’s knowledge and zoom lens was a plus!
