Amazing Tour to see the animals in Manuel Antonio - The tour has been amazing. We saw so many animals, including Sloths, Bats and even a Snake. Our Tour Guide Eduardo has been very sympathetic, helping us take the best pictures and giving us some interesting information about the animals and plants we've seen, not to forget his sense of humour. I was very happy sith the tour and would recommend it to anyone.

3 great tour experiences with guide Milton Vall - Milton was awesome!!! I took 3 groups of friends and family at 3 different times and everyone agreed that Milt found the coolest animals (from big to VERY small!) that we would never have seen on our own! He is extremely knowledgeable about the park history and all the animal inhabitants. Highly recommend!!!

Animal experience!! - We were lucky to go my partner and I alone with Eduardo, he is very good Guide and responded kindly to everything we thought to ask. He knows a lot about animals, and without him we would have seen half of them. He taught us sloths, iguanas, monkeys, hummingbirds, and many others...a 100% recommended experience and a type of 10. Thank you!

Awesome private guide for the national park - I was able to book a private tour with Milton at the last minute (day before) and what a great experience it ended up being. It was 2 adults + my 7 year old, and Milton helped navigate the entrance to the park so that our experience was smooth from the very start. Once inside the park, he navigated around and through the bigger groups and was able to show us a variety of the animals. It was great being able to use his scope, which he kindly adjusted to various heights so that both the adults and kid could see the wildlife. He also was great about using our phones to get pictures and videos of the animals through the scope (it's trickier than you'd think to line up the camera for a clear view).

Manuel Antonio Guided Tour - The park was full of animals and thanks to Eduardo our nice guide we could see them all. The beach in the end of the tour was beautiful and clean. I highly recommend to take a guide otherwise you will miss 90% of the animals

This Guide is Great! - What a wonderful tour through Manuel Antonio National Park! We saw such a variety of wildlife and flora and Eduardo had interesting information about everything. He spotted tiny critters and big, high in the trees critters, from rainbow insects to baby fer de lance snakes to hummingbirds, both sloths, iguanas, and an anteater, and that’s only a sample of what he found for us! We saw a plant use a defense mechanism and we learned about the sacrificial leaves on mangroves. His pace was comfortable and he listened to what we were interested in. I highly recommend this tour!
