Excellent morning, recommended!! - Fabulous morning kayaking and snorkelling. Our guide, Hugo, was excellent, explaining the history of Costa Rica and the local area. He took us to an island/reef area where we were able to see loads of beautiful fish.
Recommended!!

5* Type 2 fun + deaf accessible - Fantastic time ocean kayaking with Orlando. He was excellent at communicating with my partially deaf husband, and kept us safe and having fun in some big swell.
The snorkelling location was great. Viz was poor and the swell was choppy, but as experienced snorkellers we didn’t mind. The fish are super friendly!!!

Beautiful and peaceful sunset kayak tour (while getting a good workout!) - Beautiful and peaceful sunset kayaking tour! Our guide Cesar was super cool and fun, and made our experience special. It was great to go to one of the beaches, do some snorkeling, and then kayak back to the marina during the beautiful sunset. Awesome experience!

Beautiful day of kayaking and snorkeling in Manuel Antonio! - We kayaked and snorkeled with Warner at Tucanes Tours and it was awesome! Warner was knowledgeable, entertaining and fun. We had beautiful blue skies and the water was smooth. Snorkeling was very relaxing, although water was a little murky. All in all, another perfect day of "pura vida!"

Beautiful Sea Kayaking - This experience was so much fun! We kayaked for 25 minutes to a great little snorkeling spot. Our guide had sweet fruit ready for us afterwards, then we kayaked back. I highly recommend this tour.

Great! - This was a nice activity and I felt I got a good workout in. Our tour guide Alvin was friendly and knowledgeable, when we stopped to snorkel he gave us a piece of pineapple and we got to feed the fish, that was amazing!
Overall a good tour, but if you are sensitive to motion definitely take a Dramamine beforehand, you may start to feel a bit nauseous but that’s totally on you..
Alvin did great at helping those of us that felt a little sick.
