Book this amazing trip to see ALL the animals! - I truly don't have the words to express how much you need to take this tour. I last minute read reviews last night saying "if you're wondering, stop. . .and book it," so I did. And the reviews were SO right. This is an amazing family business in Paquito so know you're not supporting some huge company, but a great group that lives on the river on which they host you. Alfonso wasn't just kind and patient with all of my questions, but he saw animals I never would have noticed. There aren't works for having white face monkeys on your head! We also saw a black boa, ALL the gorgeous birds and iguanas and lizards, a caiman (think alligator/crocodile), Halloween crabs, goodness. . .I could go on and on and on! Stop thinking and BOOK THIS TOUR! You won't regret it for a moment. Muchas gracias to my amazing host. Pura vida!

Incredible - We loved this tour! There were so many animals to see and the host was fantastic. He made sure everyone on the boat had a great time and really integrated everyone into the experience by letting us feed the monkeys. 10/10.

Amazing monkey experience! - Our family of 4 (2 adults and 2 kids, ages 8 and 11) ended up getting a private tour as no other families were booked at the same time. The tour was incredible! Our guide was very knowledgeable and was able to find the animals with ease. The highlight was definitely the monkeys! They are adorable and curious, and it was definitely an experience of a lifetime. If you're on the fence, go! It's worth it!

A memorable experience - An excellent experience. All the mangrove boat tours basically follow the same pattern. Our tour guide Memo was fantastic, took the time to explain all the various aspects, never rushed us and made it a very worthwhile experience. If deciding between different activities, this one should be high on your list

Fun with Crazy Alex - After a lot of confusion about our ticket and which company we were with, we finally joined just two other people with Crazy Alex, the animal whisperer. He was very amusing and talented in finding and getting the animals to come near. We saw many, many monkeys, two boas, bats, an anteater and many birds. Alex made it fun the whole way.

great guide, very flexible company - They were terrific in that they waited for us despite our taxi dropping us at the wrong place and we ended up being very late! Alex was a great guide and can make every animal and bird noise you can imagine!! we didnt have the best luck with seeing all the wildlife or the weather, which clearly is beyond the tour guide's fault, but explains the 4*
