Highly Recommend This Spot (but you must have a tour guide!!)
Excellent tour of Costa Rica wildlife! We saw white face Capuchin Monkeys, 2 varieties of Toucan, 3 finger Sloths, Basilisk lizards, straight line bats, and the red face frog. There were other species too. It was wonderful to see how much the guides let the others know about where the animals were hanging out! Our guide David, was top notch; very knowledgeable and full of energy! He made sure we got a lot of great photos! The Playa Manual Antonio beach was very nice too, especially after a hot walk through the preserve! Highly recommend!sectetur adipiscing elit.

Don't Be a Parasite, Hire Dennis as Your Guide!
Feb 2024
Dennis led us through this beautiful park with ease, grace and humor. His knowledge of the flora and fauna are impeccable. His professional reputation with the other guides within the park is evident through his constant communication with them to share information regarding sightings of animals. We were able to see 2 and 3 toed sloths, 3 species of monkeys and various birds and insects. His adaptor for the spotting scope made the tour fantastic! He has an attachment for his i-phone which fits over the lens of the scope, enabling you to clearly see the animal on the screen of the phone. He then can take pictures or videos of what you are seeing. I felt this was extra special since it enabled us to put our phones away and truly enjoy and immerse ourselves in the experience.
Couldn’t recommend more! The best tour guide!

Jan 2024
This experience is 100% worth every penny, I would highly recommend getting a guide as Dennis made the experience. He was so friendly, knowledge and found an incredible amount of animals. We saw sloths, monkeys, birds & lizards. The beaches were stunning. Really well organised. We also did the kayaking and Dennis was amazing. It surpassed all expectations. We got a beautiful local lunch then did the kayaking. It was so safe, we were taught how to do it and learnt so much about mangroves and local ecosystems. Worth every penny! Dennis also took great photos for us!
