Private sloth jungle, riverboat & coffe/cocao tour - This was one of our best tour experiences. We had Marlene as our driver. We had her all to ourselves. She was able to add on a coffee/chocolate tour for us at a very reasonable price. I highly recommend doing that thru her not thru the tour company. We saw every animal promised. Do not hesitate to book this tour!!!!

Wonderful day immersed with nature and wildlife!! - Our family had an awesome experience with Marlene Rivas from Clamatour. The Sloths in the Jungle / River Safari day trip was full of fun and excitement from start to finish. We enjoyed the trek through the jungle where we got see sloths, exotic frogs & tucan birds, delicious lunch and finally the highlight of the day was the river safari where we got see abundant of wildlife including crocodiles, iguanas, birds, monkeys, etc. It was an amazing day immersed in nature, wildlife and fun. This is a must do activity for families visiting Costa Rica. Thanks to Clamatour for organizing it & I would highly recommend Marlene for this Sloths in Jungle & River Safari!! Marlene planned the itinerary in detail to ensure we get the best of this day trip & it was Perfectly organized & it included hotel pickup and drop from Liberia. Special Thanks to Marlene for making our Costa Rica vacation a memorable one!!

Recommended for all ages and most abilities. - Wonderful trip, great staff, and lots of wildlife sightings. If you have waterproof walking sandals, those would be ideal.

Once in a lifetime… - The most special and amazing day! <3 we see so much wildlife including crocodiles, toucans, monkeys and best of all, sloths! One of the sloths was so close I managed to get a selfie with it, and was so overwhelmed with emotion I shed a tear. I was particularly conscious to make sure we were choosing an ethical experience in which the animals were respected and not stressed by us, Marlene shared my concerns and I could see the passion and effort that the guides go to to protect their environment. Definitely recommend.

Magical experience on the River and Rain Forest - Absolutely loved this tour from start to finish. Marlene was our driver and tour guide for the day. She was upbeat and lovely, made us feel comfortable and well looked after. She was also an excellent driver, crossing a river to pick us up from hotel! The river tube boating was fantastic, Marco took us around and we saw many crocodiles, egrets, lizards, iguanas and even some monkeys.
Next stop at the rainforest was even more magical! We were able to get up close and personal with sloths, saw frogs, toucans, snakes, beautiful flowers and insects as well.
I cannot recommend this tour enough. It was truly amazing!

Best outdoor adventure in Liberia area. - The best and safest zip lining I have experienced, including Tarzan swing! The horseback riding was good. The hot spring was excellent. We could not do the river tubing because the river was too rough due to rain from the previous day. Highly recommended.

Great way to the nature in Costa Rica - We had a great time. Fairly calm raft ride first where we saw lots of crocodiles, monkeys, iguanas, birds and more. Marcos was very helpful and has the eyes of an eagle spotting animals left and right. Next was our nature hike where we loved seeing sloths, snakes, birds and even porcupine. Allen was super helpful and even taught us how to use our cameras better! Marlene brought us safely to our destinations and guided us pointing out history, geography and nature along the way. Highly recommend this excursion! Only pointer I'd offer is to bring a change of shoes for the rafting...your feet can get wet and muddy getting in and out of the raft.

We enjoyed the raft trip... - We enjoyed the raft trip very much. The lunch was excellent. The "rain forest" was not especially rainy, but it was a very easy way to see the main attractions: sloths, ttee snakes, tree frogs. Stop at the tourist trap on the way back was less than necessary, but OK. Marlene was an outstanding guide!
