Amazing tour and guide! - Alex is an excellent guide. We went on a family trip with two kids, and he was very attentive and kind throughout the journey. We had the opportunity to observe many sloths, birds, turtles, and even Alex knew where to find some beautiful little frogs. It's clear that he knows the area very well and understands where and how to find different animals. He was great company—attentive, friendly, and relaxed—which allowed us to enjoy our outing immensely.

You won’t be disappointed if you want to see sloths in the wild. - Excellent experience. Alex pointed out 6 or 7 sloths on the tour, as well as monkeys and various birds. He was very informative and easy going. The kayak portion was relaxing but some tricky maneuvering at times. He even cut open some coconuts for a refreshing drink.

Amazing experience! Cute sloths :) - We had an amazing experience! We got to see lots of wildlife both during the river kayaking and the hike! Our guide, Alex, was very knowledgeable and answered all of our questions. He was also incredibly nice and helpful! Among the wildlife, we got to see a mom and baby sloth climbing together, super cute :) Would highly recommend this experience!

Informative, versatile - Alex made a very nice tour with us. He has a lot of knowledge about the native plants and animals and we have seen a lot. Capuchin monkeys, sloths, iguanas, turtles, even a toucan. We were first on a river by kayak then there was a coconut snack and then we did a nice hike. Vielen Dank Alex!

Amazing experience with Alex! - We loved this experience with Alex! Alex was kind, knowledgeable of all of the nature Costa Rica has to offer and incredibly patient with us as first time kayakers. The kayaking experience was magical, and we were excited to see the sloths, monkeys and turtles!!!! Alex did everything with a smile - and immediately I felt safe and comfortable with Alex as our guide. He has such great energy, I would 100% take my family to do this again!!!!

Walk and kayak gave some guided info - The tour is as described - from the meeting point we walked along the beach, down a road and through a trail then kayak down the river. This is something you can absolutely do without a guide ($10 an hour to rent kayaks) but the guide was there to answer questions and give us background and information about the area as he pointed things out.

horrible! waste of time! - Horrible experience. I would give 0 out of 5 if I could but it doesn't let me. We waited there to be picked up for 2 hours and no tour guide showed up. The owner pocho was there and convinced us to stick around for the tour guide to show up claiming he talked to them over the phone but he was just lying. We had a limited time in limon and it was just wasted because pocho couldnt just tell us the tour was cancelled, instead he made us wait there like fools, wasting our last day. Very unprofessional. Do not book this tour. Warning.
