A very worthwhile wildlife experience - An excellent tour of this nature park. Our guide, Gustavo, is knowledgeable, friendly and never rushed the tour. With the telephoto lens that the tour provides, we were able to see sloughs, monkeys, butterflies, land crabs and lots of other exotic creatures. An amazing place to visit and a great tour by Gustavo.

10/10 - Today we took an amazng tour with Eduardo. He was so kind, personable, and very very knowledgeable. He pointed out animals and insects that we would have never seen. Not only knowledgeable with the wild life but all the plants as well. We really enjoyed ourselves, my kids loved it. You made Penelopes trip with all the sloth findings. Until again CR!! PURA VIDA. Thank you again Eduardo. I will definitely tell friends and family back home in Canada to book their tour with you! Alicia & Family :)

Excellent tour of Manuel Antonio Park - Our guide, Gustavo, is very knowledgeable about all the wildlife in this park. He gave us many opportunities for photographs, and always assisted us with the telephoto camera. The tour was not rushed, and Gustavo was happy to answer any questions. All in all, an excellent tour and an excellent tour guide. I highly recommend this tour.

Amazing Tour with Eduardo through the park - We had a great tour with Eduardo this Morning in the Manuel Antonio Park. He showed and explained us a lot about the animals. We Even spotted a red head bird which is very seldom. Further more he described us all the paths through the park. It was just amazing.

Amazing Time! - Amazing experience. Definitely hire a guide for this activity. They spotted so many things we would have missed. Ask for Diego if you can. He was very knowledgeable, spotted so many animals, bugs, sloths, lizards, crabs and birds. He also took great photos for us through his spotting scope. The beach at the end is a great place to hang out and swim. Highly recommend this experience.

Eduardo was an amazing guide. Great Tour!! - This was a great experience. Eduardo was an amazing guide. He took us on a hike and found all kinds of animals, insects and plants. He took a powerful telescope with us so we were able to view every animal up close and helped us take photos. I’d highly recommend using Eduardo. People on the same trail but with no guide missed out on seeing so much. I’m also not a great walker and Eduardo let me go at my own pace. Great experience.
