Must do Experience! - This is a must when in the area! We were able to see so much wildlife up close and personal with a great guide and a very small group. The walk is easy with provided flashlights and it is well worth the price of admission and then some. Don't hesitate and book this tour!

La Fortuna night tour. - A night tour is a must do. We were very fortunate as there was cloud cover the night we went so we were privileged to see snakes, red eye tree frogs, moneys, which were high in the trees, a variety of sleeping birds, vipers and other snakes, and insects. Norbin was a good guide. He was informative, experienced, friendly. He made sure that everyone in the group got to see the wildlife. We enjoyed him and the entire tour immensely.

Magical Night Tour with an Incredible Guide! - Our night tour was a blast! We spotted tons of frogs, bugs, and even some birds. The walk was easy, and even the older participants managed well. I highly recommend hiking shoes or boots—despite the dry season, we all wore rain jackets as it got chilly. Our guide had an incredible eye for spotting wildlife and even took photos for us when some creatures were too tricky to see.

Great night walk tour! - We had a great night walk tour with our guide Norbin. We were in a group of 5 which was great for hearing our guide. We saw vipers, sleeping birds, spiders, and lots of frogs. Very interesting walk and learned lots from our guide. Got some great pics - our guide was very helpful with that. Highly recommend this tour!

Wonderful experience! - Our Arenal night walk was a wonderful experience beginning to end. Pick up and drop off from our hotel was easy. Being in the forest at night was an amazing experience, with the beautiful sounds of nature, many frogs and birds. Brandon can spot all the critters, no matter how well they blend in, and does a great job with animal noises, getting them to respond. This is a must do tour in the Fortuna area! Brandon was very knowledgeable about the animals, plants and the area. We learned a lot and enjoyed every minute of the tour.

Great tour, great guide! - Great night jungle tour with Soul - a very knowledgeable and thoughtful guide. We saw Fer de Lance, Costa Ricas most venomous snake crossing the path along with red eyed frogs, toads, a tarrantula, and leaf carrying ants amongst other things. We'd highly recommended.

AMAZING & informative. So much wildlife! - This tour was amazing & one of our favorites that we did in Costa Rica! Our guide was incredible. He was so knowledgeable about all the wildlife and worked very hard to get us nice pictures and videos. It rained most of the time on us but we still saw soooo many animals! Monkeys, frogs, vipers, insects, lizards and birds. The walk was safe and easy. We explored that area 2 other times in the daytime because we loved it so much. Highly recommend!!
