Just enjoy the walk - Put on long trousers and depending on the weather take an umbrella with you. Binoculars aren't necessary.

Wonderful experience - We did with Daniel the rowing canoe tour and the night walk. Both experiences were amazing. We saw many animals, which without their knowledge would be impossible. You can also see that he takes great interest in his work and explains with great passion. It took us both day and night through more hidden places that showed us the wealth of flora and fauna of their country. Thank you so much for everything!!

One of the highlights of our Costa Rica trip! - Excellent wildlife tour! Our guide Warren was very skilled and helped us spot an amazing range of wildlife in the forest around Tortuguero - lots of bugs, sloths, raccoons and the highlight, a sleeping toucan!

Led by a guide that loves what he does! - Warren was an excellent guide with great instincts. You can tell he thoroughly enjoys what he does and shares his finds enthusiastically. He picks up on the group’s interests and gets excited about big and small finds alike. We spotted numerous lizards, 4 sloths, a possum, a big family of raccoons, frogs and so many cool bugs! Thanks for the great tour and taking your time 🙏🏼

A great experience - An absolutely amazing experience, we saw loads of wildlife including Sloths, frogs, spiders and a snake. Our guide Warren was really passionate and his Son who assisted him was equally so, even the torrential rain didn't spoil it. Definitely take waterproof bags and jackets! Would strongly recommend this experience.

Our night walk was with a... - Our night walk was with a group of 5 people and a guide. We enjoyed it but there were so many groups out at the same time on the same trail so it was a bit difficult to spot animals. We saw quite a few frogs, a sloth and the best part was seeing a porcupine.
