Choose Grasshopper!! - Our resort helped us organize a tour through a wildlife refuge with Ernesto. During the ride to and from he was pleasant and taught us all about the area. During our hike he pointed out the many animals, helped us get great pics, and taught us about the plants and trees as well. We had an amazing time and look forward to returning for one of their other excursions!

3 private tours:all absolutely perfect! Ernesto is the best guide there: super knowledgeable,kind and professional. - My hotel organised 3 trips for me with Ernesto and these were the best trips I had while in Costa Rica Rica.Ernesto is super kind,very knowledgeable and takes care of you from start to finish.I really enjoyed exploring Cabo Blanco, Curu Wildlife Refuge and the trip to the waterfalls.He brings binoculars so you can see the animals very close,you can learn about all plants and local culture. Highly recommended ❤️🥳

A highlight of our trip in Santa Teresa! - My husband and I had the absolute pleasure of doing two amazing tours with Ernesto from Grasshopper Tours in Santa Teresa: the Curu Wildlife Reserve and the Montezuma Waterfalls. Both experiences were unforgettable and far exceeded our expectations. Ernesto is not only incredibly knowledgeable about Costa Rican nature and wildlife, but he also takes the time to share his passion in a way that’s engaging and easy to understand. At Curu, we spotted an incredible variety of animals—monkeys, birds, parrots - thanks to Ernesto’s trained eye and telescope, which brought the wildlife up close in stunning detail. For the Montezuma Waterfalls, Ernesto made sure we arrived early enough to be the first ones there. We had the magical experience of jumping and swimming in the falls all to ourselves. It felt like something out of a dream! On both tours, Ernesto treated us to fresh coconuts and delicious local snacks—such a thoughtful and refreshing touch after our adventures. These tours were among the best parts of our time in Costa Rica. If you're in Santa Teresa, don’t miss the chance to explore with Ernesto. He truly made our experience personal, memorable, and deeply enjoyable.

A great experience with Ernesto - Ernesto did a really great job. He know nearly everything about the wildlife and the plants. He even ist able to "talk" with and to the animals. Of course he is technicaly best equiped, starting up from his bus to his binoculars. You'll see not only a lot of animals, get informations also from the way of living in Costa Rica - Ernesto offers you a good and fruity lunch and finally a very nice gift. Dont miss the Grasshopper Tour, wenn you are at the surroundings All the best to Ernesto!

Adventures in Costa Rica - Ernesto's knowledge, expertise and passion for nature in Costa Rica made our family's trip one of the best experiences we could have. There were many personal touches, such as setting up snacks at the end of the trip that just added to the whole experience. We highly recommend Grasshopper Tours!

Simply the best! - If you're ever in the Nicoya Peninsula, do yourself a favor and book a nature walk with Ernesto-truly one of the best naturalist guides I’ve met. This was far more than a typical nature tour (though we did spot some incredible birds, monkeys, and even alligators). It was a deep dive into the rhythms of a Blue Zone- one of world's areas known for people's longevity. Ernesto's knowledge of the healing properties of native plants is also truly fascinating and he shares everything with passion sparkled with fun.

Wildlife whisperer - Ernesto was amazing. He heard and spotted so many animals long before we could find them. Helped us get great pictures. Gave great advice for activities after our tour. Super friendly. Very informative. Highly recommend
