Interesting, educational and enjoyable! - Terrific wildlife experience with a great guide: Rob pointed out all the different animals living in the area that we were not able to spot on our own and shared his knowledge about local history and fauna as well as flora. On a short and comfortable kayak tour, we saw turtles, caiman, basilic, monkeys, different types of sloths - and more. The hike after the kayak tour was also extremlely rewarding as we got to se even more animals up close, as well as the impressive views of the area. Interesting, educational and enjoyable. Highly recommend!

Punta Uva hike and kayak tour - My wife and I truly enjoyed our experience with Stefan - we were amazed at the amount of plant and animal life we were able to see in a relatively small area on beautiful Punta Uva. Our guide was professional, informative, and very personable. The kayaking on the river was very peaceful and I felt like we were just hanging out with friends. I highly recommend this 3-hour activity.

See everything you came to Costa Rica to see!! - Can’t recommend this tour enough! Saw SO many sloths, toucans, turtles, bats, and unbelievably gorgeous views. Rob is such a fun and informative tour guide, going at whatever pace you need, and you end up seeing and learning a ton in a very short amount of time. Don’t hesitate in booking, you won’t be disappointed!!

10/10… I recommend. - This tour was great. From start to finish, very informative. You get to see and learn about several species of native animal, plants and plants that were brought in and what their purposes are for. Rob who was our tour guide was very knowledgeable of everything we looked at. Not just the things he pointed out but every tree, plant and animal you could ask about in relation to what we saw, he knew. Such a history packed tour as well. I would do it again.

WE SAW 13 SLOTHS!! - This trip was amazing, kayaking through the jungle listening to the sounds of the wildlife, stunning beaches, such a variety of wildlife and a friendly informative guide Rob We saw 13 sloths, cayman, toucans, monkeys, turtles, spiders, green macaw, blue heron, leaf cutter ants, and iguanas I would recommend wearing quick drying clothes (not denim shorts like me), water shoes, dry bag, and hat. I found water shoes worked well for the kayaking and then the hike afterwards which wasn’t rocky but was a little bit muddy I would say that you need to be of adequate fitness and mobility for the hike as there is a bit where there is a steep climb up “steps” so you need to be mobile enough to step high. I wouldn’t say fitness is an issue for the kayaking at the beginning Please tip the guide, he was really fantastic spotting so many animals for us and was so informative. The best activity we have done in Costa Rica so far!! Highly recommend 5 stars

Very unprofessional tour operator and guide - So, we booked the tour for five persons tha day before New Year’s Eve and we got a message that it was cancelled due to rain from the tour operator. Later same day, we got a call from the guide that said that we can have the tour on New Year’s Eve instead so we accepted that. I texted him the same day and we confirmed the time, we took the car and drove over 1 hour to the location and arrived 15 min before the scheduled time. We tried to contact the guide and he suddenly didn’t answer our messages any more. So I contacted the tour operator instead and they just said “we can send back your money back”. Apparently they had double booked and they didn’t try to fix the issue at all for us, blamed us that we had talked to the guide directly and also stopped replying to us. I explained that the guide contacted us and we don’t know that we shouldn’t talk to him directly. We just wasted 2,5 hours in the car and missed an opportunity to have a great day on the sea. Don’t use this tour operator, very unprofessional.
