Best guide ever! - Junior was an incredible tour guide!!! He joined our enthusiasm and was so excited for us to see all the cool animals, reptiles and birds. We had so much fun and got to see so much more because we had a guide. We highly recommend booking this tour!

Great experience for nature lovers - The tour with Emmanuel was great. He is a local of fortune and will not only show you sloths and other fauna but also tell you curiosities about Costa Rica in general. Highly recommended!!

beautiful tour with the best guide Emmanuel - Emmanuel is a super likeable and authentic guide who draws on and shares an incredibly deep knowledge. We are overjoyed that we were allowed to do the tour with him and discovered with him sloths (active and sleeping), unique arrow poison frogs, echinoderms, bats, birds and of course the beautiful flora of Costa Rica. We recommend Emmanuel to you 100%! Thank you for this experience Emmanuel!

Great tour-this is the best - Great tour, so knowledgeable and so much good info about Costa Rica and the plants. We definitely wouldn’t have seen as much without him, we saw several sloths, birds, frogs and ducks, and learned about what plants to avoid even touching

Worthwhile - Emmanuel is an awesome guide. It's a private tour, so you get more out of it. Just remember the big spray!

Emmanuel brings Costa Rican nature to life! - Emmanuel's sloth tour has been the highlight of our vacation to Costa Rica. He spotted both two- and three-toed sloths, anteater, poisonous blue jean frogs, and lots of interesting plants like annatto and cacao pods. He has an encyclopedic knowledge of nature and a real gift for sharing that knowledge in an engaging way; he's a natural and gifted teacher. My kids loved his tours so much they want to move to Costa Rica and become natur Emmanuel also has great skills as a guide. He manages groups very well, communicates clearly, and effectively uses his tripod-mounted scope to help his tour members see the often well hidden wildlife and take pictures on their phones. Great tour, great guide. 10/10.

Wonderful Sloth Tour and Great Guide! - Emmanuel was a kind, gracious and well spoken tour guide. His pride for his country and passion for the animals is contagious! He took the extra time to explain everything we were seeing and hearing from flora to fauna! I highly recommend him. PS This was our first visit to Costa Rica and he made sure we have many great memories to take home with us!

Top tour guide in CR - We recently spent 16 days travelling Costa Rica and took alot of different tours but our private Sloth tour with Emmanuel was the best by far!! He is very passionate about nature & his beautiful country and is very in tune with the sounds & sights in the jungle…he heard & spotted a red jinx & poison dart frog, numerous birds and of course sloths. His tripod gave great close up views & photos as well. His knowledge is amazing and he is super friendly, his English is excellent and in our opinion Emmanuel is the best tour guide anywhere!! Book with him & you will have an awesome experience, you’ll love it!!!!!

Definitely have a guide, admission not included - We enjoyed our tour, and our guide was great! Having a guide is definitely the best way to explore this park. We saw a few sloths, as well as sever other native wildlife along the way. It was a leisurely pace, and perfect for a relaxing morning in nature. The only thing that I'd point out is that the $17 USD per person for the admission is not included. It does say it in the listing but I overlooked it when booking, so having another $50 to pay at the end was a little disappointing. I'd definitely suggest to the company that they include ALL costs in the price of the booking, as at first it seemed like a good price, but later with the admission added on, it felt a little expensive for what it was. We still enjoyed it though.
