Highly recommended tour operators - „We did the combo tour with Travel Tortuguero, consisting of a guided night walk, a canoe trip through Tortuguero‘s waterways and a hike along the Jaguar Trail. Boa and his team were a great help when we organized everything and were amazing when it came to their knowledge about the plants and animals around. They expertly spottet things where we just wouldn’t have seen it ourselves. We had great fun and would definitely recommend Boa and Travel Tortuguero if you are looking for a great guided tour in Tortuguero NP“

Fantastic Night Tour in Tortuguero – an absolute must! - The 5-star Night Tour of Tortuguero was an exciting experience! In the dark, a whole new world opens up, and we never imagined how many animals are active at night – and how close you can get to them. We saw many animals that we would have missed during the day. Our guide Boa was just top! He was extremely familiar with the nightlife and knew exactly where to look. Boa gave us a lot of interesting information and explained everything in such a way that you really learned something without it becoming boring. The tour was exciting, safe, informative and full of special moments. A unique experience that you won’t soon forget. Very clear 5 stars – absolutely make it!

Excellent tour, many animals, great guide, don’t miss this! - The night tour was one of the most memorable and enjoyable parts of our entire trip to Costa Rica! It was fun to try to spot animals in the dark - and spot them we did! Boa is a very talented and knowledgeable guide, and he is also a great host - he tailored the trip so the whole family could participate and enjoy. Highly recommended.

Best Tour Guide in town - Boa has been the best guide you can find in Tortuguero. Their passion, and knowledge make you enjoy the experience in a unique way. His explanations guide you in a hypnotic way and he is able to do it in such a dynamic and fun way that the tour flies by. We discovered all the species of animals he proposed and also with the help of his girl - Cristina - nothing escaped! We took one of the best experiences we have ever had on this trip, a pleasure Mae. PURE LIFE!

I thought it was magical, go for it! Merci Alexis - An unforgettable experience thanks to Alexis! We had the chance to be accompanied by Alexis Torres on our visit, and it was just exceptional. Alexis has an incredible knowledge of fauna and flora, he has known the park as his pocket for more than 10 years. Each stage of the tour was enriched with exciting anecdotes, told with passion and humor. You can feel that he is passionate about what he does, and it is contagious: he has passed on his love for this unique place. Thanks to him, we experienced a real immersion in nature. If you have the opportunity to take a ride with Alexis, I tell you sincerely, go with your eyes closed! Mario Brito Febras, French/Brazilian tourist 😁

Wealth of Wildlife Sightings- Lots of Fun - Boa was so adept at finding all of the might creatures- iguanas, frogs, anole, sloths and much more! Plus he just exudes knowledge and joy as he shows you these amazing creatures - well worth the time working with Boa.

Night tour without great success, but worth it - The best thing about the night tour was the guide, "Boa", who with his experience, knowledge and humor, enlivened us a tour not very fruitful in terms of animal watching, since he did not give the opportunity to see them. Anyway, the experience of looking for animals at night and saving a blizzard, was certainly worth it
