Chance of a lifetime! - Awesome! Isaac, our guide, was so knowledgeable and patient. We saw two and three toed sloths including a three toed sloth with her baby. We took some brilliant videos and photos. We also saw the green and black poisonous dart frog. Cannot recommend highly enough.

Great Tour! - We had a great time on our sloth tour! We saw multiple sloths and even got to see a mom carrying her baby. We also saw some agouti, leaf cutter ants, termites, and cool birds! Our GPS took us right to the spot, it was not too hard to find. The Waze app did say “permanently closed” for the location but we ignored that per previous reviews. Just look for the signs that say “sloth tour”! Our guide was really friendly and knowledgeable! He was able to answer every question we had. He knew all about the plants and animals and taught us a lot about them. The tour was a good length, not too long but didn’t feel rushed either. We had a great time! Thank you!

Nice experience - Excellent sloth tour. The guide was very knowledgeable and patient, explained everything with passion and respect for nature. We could see several sloths up close thanks to his expert eye. An authentic, quiet and perfect experience to learn and enjoy. Highly recommended!

Amazing guide and sloths!! - This tour was absolutely amazing!! Isaac was our guide and he was awesome. He was so knowledgeable about the area and wildlife. But what made it so great was his enthusiasm about everything. You could tell that he loved doing his job. He made the experience so much better! We saw a sloth come down and go to the bathroom. You might not think this is so great, but they only go about once a week and she was about 10 feet from us. It was incredible experience and very rare to see. We saw leaf cutter ants and other birds. But the sloths were amazing - saw mama sloths with their babies and they were moving from tree to tree. Just incredible! We want to thank Isaac for making this the highlight of our trip!

Sloths in their natural habitat - We went with the sole intent of seeing sloths. We saw the sloths and more. The guide was great. He was so passionate and knowlegeable about the creatures and their environment. Had a lot of laughs during the tour. He spotted 4 sloths for us - in the rain! We even got to see one "hustling" down the tree. Great price and great experience

Address and name for activity need to be updated, but guide was very enthusiastic and knowledgeable. - I was not sent a reminder for the activity (as would normally happen). The day before my trip I checked on Google Maps how to get there to see that the address listed was “permanently closed “. I was unable to contact Trip Advisor. The operator was not on WhatsApp and did not respond to my request through Trip Advisor until after I had begun to panic. It was too late to cancel my booking. I had to get the hostel to call the operator for confirmation of their location. Eventually managed to establish that there was a new name for the outfit. I found the area for the tour a shortish walk away from the town centre. It was a very weird setup- just a shack at the end of a road in a residential area with a hand painted sign saying “sloth tours”. But the tour itself (as I had Isaac for what turned out to be a private tour) was very good !

Very average at best - It's a very small wooded area. They had one sloth which has been rescued so I'm led to believe which is why they can guarantee a sloth sighting. There was absolutely nothing else to see other than ants. Our guide was a very nice young chap.
