Night Tour with Edwards Madrigal - Outstanding tour! Edwards did a great job of calling our attention to many things in the forest. He was very patient to answers questions and very concerned to give us the best possible experience. The photos he took and shared with us allow us to remember the trip

Recommended, worth it - A great experience the night tour with our guide Pool, knowledgeable about the environment. We saw frogs of different species, tarantula, snake, birds, lizards. Besides, it was just the two of us, so we could enjoy it more carefully.

Magnificent experience - Great night walk with Pool. We had the opportunity to see several birds, frogs, toads, butterflies, bats, insects and arachnids. Even though we spent more than two hours, it got very short. Pool took some good pictures with his telescope and sent them to us later. Absolutely recommended.

Great experience. - We had a great experience. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and seemed to know where to find everything. We saw a Fer-de-lance (the most venomous snake in south america!!!!), a tarantula, numerous frogs, the jesus christ lizard and much more. We definitely recommend booking with efrain tours. Note: Wear bug spray and long sleeves and pants.

Excellent Night tour with Edwardo - Edwardo gave us a terrific hike and siting of birds, tarantula, spiders,and many frogs! It was fascinating learning about each species adapted to the rain forest and Costa Rica. I highly recommend asking for Edwardo for your night hike!

Put guests in harms way - Unfortunately my family and the other guests were put in harms way when our guide (Edwardo) did not thoroughly assess the trail for snakes and allowed our group to pass within 1ft of a Fer De Lance viper snake that was on the trail. It was not noticed until a guide passing in the opposite direction noticed the snake and alerted our guide. Multiple guests were wearing tennis shoes and shorts including one child. I understand the risk of going on a night tour but being able to identify a venomous snake on the trail should be a skill all guides possess before bring tourists, including children, into the jungle.
