Excellent Guided Nature Tour in Manuel Antonio - Our Manuel Antonio Guided Tour with Henderson and Kevin was an excellent experience. One important note is that the park entrance ticket is paid separately when booking through Viator, but they send clear links to purchase it; just remember tickets can only be bought up to two months in advance, so it’s best to buy them immediately because they sell out quickly. The tour includes about 30 minutes to swim at the beach, depending on your group’s pace. We were lucky to see many animals on a sunny day, though of course sightings are never guaranteed. Henderson was an outstanding guide—knowledgeable, clear, and able to give both the common and Latin names of the animals, plants, and flowers we saw, making the tour very educational. He also handled photos efficiently by taking them himself and sharing them through AirDrop or WhatsApp, which saved a lot of time compared to other groups. Kevin, who was training as a guide, was also very knowledgeable and enthusiastic, and it’s clear he will become an excellent guide. Overall, a rich, smooth, and memorable visit to Manuel Antonio.

Educational Nature Experience - This was a very active experience. You are on your feet for several hours but it is worth it. 100% recommend getting a guide as they think like the animals and can more easily spot them. They also interact with other guides to get intel on where animals might be. As our guide put it “you are not hiring one guide you are hiring 100.” It was absolutely true! The scopes the guides use are awesome - they will take better pictures and videos than you can with regular cameras or binoculars. You will see much more with a guide. Our guide, Elias, was AMAZING. He knew so much about the ecosystem, the animals, and the history of Costa Rica. Make
Sure to bring a hat and water - it was HOT.

Park tour - Elias was awesome. We arrived late as we were stuck in traffic but he was so understanding as he was a young father as well. Helped us get the park tickets on hand and then took us to the park. He showed us a lot of variety of flora and fauna. We were lucky as we got to spend time at the beach as well.
