Amazing NGO Saving Incredible Wildlife - We visited the sanctuary to learn all about the amazing work they do to rescue, rehab and release native wildlife, as well as the amazing conservation advocacy and habitat protection work. Getting to see these gorgeous animals up close was a treat, but to know we were supporting their rescue and protection made it even better. The volunteers and staff were amazing! Our tour guide, Jolene, and the others we talked to after the tour were all friendly, informative and passionate, and inspired me to plan another visit to come back longer and volunteer. A visit is well worth the time and will make the rest of your vacation more meaningful.

Good introduction to wildlife rescue - Guide Jolene was excellent introducing us to the rescued animals and birds along with background information. Good work is being done here in a peaceful jungle setting. Luckily a healthy wild sloth and many capuchins came to visit as well.

One of the best vacation experiences - We stayed on the property and had an amazing time. We were there for eight days. The people were great. The admission fee was great. The animals were amazing. We saw animals on rehab, as well as plenty of quality animals that actually interact with the animals in rehab. We saw iguanas that were 3 feet long. It was an incredible experience.

Enjoying a wonderful animal sanctuary - Our guide Emma was friendly and knowledgeable. She shared stories about the sanctuary and each of the animals as we observed them. Capuchin monkeys, in the wild, were moving around the trees. They were so cute. We really enjoyed our time there. We hope others will visit this place.
