Sloths! Baby animals and frogs! - We were very lucky to see sloths, baby raccoons and baby bats! Ademar is a knowledgeable, patient and an upbeat guide. His knowledge of the rainforest biology was extraordinary. He spotted a number of interesting insects, amphibians and reptiles that we surely would have missed without his guidance. We feel like we picked the best night tour in La Fortuna!

The best night walk through the jungle! - Amazing Jungle Night Walk Experience
An authentic and unforgettable experience with this company! The trails immerse you in such a dense natural environment that you truly feel like you're in the heart of the jungle, adding a unique touch to the adventure. At first, we were a bit hesitant because we didn't know the area and had to drive there, but the entire road to the property where the tour takes place is paved, which was a relief. The communication with the guide was excellent—he was always available via WhatsApp and spoke perfect English. They organized a private tour just for the four of us, and my kids were absolutely thrilled with Francisco, who patiently answered all their questions. Without a doubt, Night Tour La Fortuna gave us the best experience of our trip to Costa Rica.
The best night walk through the jungle!

Very rewarding and off road tour - Do not be put off by the remote Fortuna (about 15-20min depending on your Pension). The price is very reasonable, the visit super interesting, thanks to our Lyam Guide who did his utmost to show us the local flora and fauna despite the very unfavorable weather.
Here no tourist bus, groups of 8 maximum, we lend you torches, provide closed shoes, pants and long sleeves and mosquito repellent.
Contrary to what the big Fortuna hotels offer, you are here in a real forest that is rented to a farmer which allows to protect it from deforestation.

We saw lots of animals, insects, and lizards! - Loved this tour! We had Angie and Ademar as our guides, and I was very impressed with their knowledge and enthusiasm. They seemed genuinely excited to find creatures for us to see, and I loved that. It was raining for most of our tour, but we had rain coats. Another couple on the tour didn't, but they didn't turn out too wet with the cover of the rainforest. We saw many animals including frogs, snakes, insects, a kinajou, bullet ants, and lizards. We all had flashlights and Ademar carried back up batteries (which my husband needed when his light went out). The property where the tour took place was lovely and very quiet and away from other people/properties. I would definitely recommend this tour!

Absolute best night tour! - If I could give this tour 10 stars, I would do so without hesitation!! Absolute best night tour and the coolest experience. The guide, Francisco, is very friendly and knowledgeable. He pointed out different species of frogs, scorpions, spiders, insects, birds, etc. and gave us tons of information on them. Fantastic, fun, authentic experience that I would recommend anyone in a heartbeat.
