Incredible tour with Mario - This is an incredible tour and Mario is an amazing guide! Such a great experience. We saw 4 sloths, fed the capuchin and tamarind monkeys, cruised through the canal among the ships - all I can say is wow and a must do!

Mario did a wonderful job... - Mario did a wonderful job of finding and showing us the animals. We saw both types of sloths, 3 types of monkeys, an iguana, and lots of birds that he pointed out to us and told us the names of He had a scope that allowed us to clearly see the sloths, that would've just been balls of fur without

Awesome wild animal tour - We saw a sloth on the way to the boat ride, then we took a boat to see different species of wild monkeys on the monkey island, and we finish the trip with walking in the rainforest. We saw leaf cutting ants, another sloth, more monkeys, and rodents. The tour guide was funny and informative. He handed out local snacks and the best tasting pineapple I’ve ever had in my life. I would recommend the tour because I would never be able to spot the animals myself. Please note the boat is $20 extra.

Amazing Tour - Would highly recommend this tour!! Manolo is an amazing tour guide filled with knowledge and humor. We saw a sloth, toucan and monkeys. Stopped along the way and snack was provided. Even though it was rainy we got to feed the monkeys and enjoy the fast boat. Thank you for the great adventure!!

Highly recommended tour! - This is a great family tour. Pick up was outside the city and prompt, planning around city traffic is difficult and unpredictable, like the weather in November. The guides and drivers were cheerful and informative. Unfortunately it poured rain on us the whole time but we still came really close to the capuchin and 3 toed sloth. There were a few extras worked on to the tour which was a nice touch. Even through the rain I highly recommend this tour.

Monkeys & ships are the highlights. - Wasn’t fond of the loud music in the boat at 8am. Wasn’t fond of the earlier changed pick up time. 6:30 and not 7:00am. Wasn’t fond of the surprise $20 fee for the boat ride. Saying that. We saw some neat monkeys and toucans. Only 1 sloth up really high. Not really a sloth visit. Neat seeing the huge ships. Guys were nice. Everyone drives like daredevils here.
