Lots of wildlife! - We did this tour on a rainy morning. Our guide was amazing at finding us a dry spot to wait out the rain, and then we saw lots of wildlife! We went with young kids and they had a lot of fun.

Out early and enjoying yourself in a paradise on the water – thank you, Kevin! - What a fantastic experience! We were the first to leave and started the canoe trip through the park in peace – a magical start to the day. Kevin was a great guide: calm, knowledgeable and with an eye for nature. Especially the small side canals were breathtakingly beautiful: a true paradise full of birds, sounds and light. We thoroughly enjoyed the silence, the surroundings and the fine atmosphere. An absolute must for those who really want to experience Tortuguero. Thank you, Kevin! Pura Vida!

Amazing views in a magical place - We were so thrilled to take a kayak tour through the canals in Tortuguero. We were able to get into small areas that other boats could not reach. We also took a night tour and a day jungle walk tour with them, and all were excellent. Adrian was our guide on the walking tours, and Daniel led our kayaking excursion. We saw so many animals due to their keen eyes! They are a family run business, and a pleasure to work with. They make the process very smooth and easy and provide everything you need.

Really great! - We did the canoe tour and the Nightwalk, guided by Adrían. Really great, everything super arranged. Adrian sees everything, no animal remains unseen. Adrian thanks!

Beautifull experience that is a must in Tortuguero - It was a beautifull journey. Adrían, our guide, saw animals that were barely noticeable. He knew so much about all animals

Fantastic - I did the canal tour with my partner first thing in the morning and the experience was fantastic. Our guide was Roberto, great guide with whom we could see a lot of different birds, 4 alligators, monkeys, basilisks... The walk is very pleasant and relaxing for the tranquility of the place. Highly recommended

Knowledgeable and friendly - We have done several tours: the Nightwalk, Daywalk and kayak tour. All of them great. Especially thanks to the guides Adrian and Kevin but also thanks to the friendly lady at the office. The guides are passionate and very knowledgeable. They talk very enthusiastically about the surroundings. We enjoyed it!!!
