Great experience! - This was a great experience! A unique and interesting way to learn about the wonderful wildlife in the area. Richard was our guide; extremely knowledgable! He’s a must have guide! Overall an excellent experience!

learn about many native frogs - Meldin was a fantastic guide. Great tour on a biological reserve called Ecocentro Danaus, developed over the last 30 years on land that was deforested. Frogs and reptiles are free to come and go as they please. Guaranteed you will find and learn about many native frogs. Booking 1 tour allows you to visitor multiple times thereafter. It's a little pricey for the experience but now you know how to look for frogs. I do suggest booking directly on their website as they charge a lower price than here.

So many froggies! - We LOVED our night tour at Danaus! Our guide had a superpower for finding little critters in the dark! When we arrived there was a sloth in a tree nearby and he had a telescope fixed on it so we could see it clearly. From the moment we stepped on the trail he was pointing out cool things. He also took really nice pictures with our phones that we would never have captured on our own! He also told us about the history of conservation in Costa Rica and all about the different animals that find refuge there. It was an awesome tour! I’ll admit, I was a little scared of snakes and spiders on the night tour, but our path was very well maintained and our guide went first to point everything out. I felt very comfortable and safe and had a ton of fun! I would also recommend doing this at the beginning of your trip. Our guide helped teach us how to spot some animals on our own, and we used that for the rest of the week!

Can’t be beat - Paz was an amazing guide who helped us see so many unique creatures. Some things we saw include a bunch of frogs, a baby caiman, many green basilisks (Jesus Christ lizards), and even a big fer-de-lance who was eating a meal. Could not recommend this tour enough as we never would’ve seen half of what we saw in the day time!

Wonderful up-close encounters with night’s vibrant critters - The communication from the company ahead of time was terrific. The tour was exciting and we saw lots of wonderful night critters. Amazing frogs, snakes, insects, a crocodile, and more. They gave my daughter a little souvenir bag, which was a lovely touch. They seemed caring, responsible, communicative, very knowledgeable and ran an awesome tour!

Amazing experience! - This was the best experience of my trip. No one else booked this time slot so it was a private tour. Melvin was experienced, knowledgeable, and pointed out creatures I would have completely missed. I saw toads, frogs, snakes, spiders, a Cayman, and the butterflies in the small enclosure. I even saw an armadillo!

Finding creatures in the dark - We saw so many different and tiny frogs! The guide pointed out many different frogs, a snake, turtle, and insects. He even helped take photos for us when we couldn't get close enough. We were even able to see a sloth climbing a tree. The guide was very knowledgeable and engaging.

So awesome! - Such a cool place. Our guide was able to spot wildlife in a fraction of a second. He also took time to make sure I got a good photo and helped with lighting if needed. We saw so many different species and all up very close. Our guide was also very knowledgeable and friendly. Spoke great English too! We loved it and would definitely do it again!

So many frogs! - My wife and I did a night tour here (6:30-8:30pm) and saw plenty of critters! Our guide led us through 1-2km of trails in the relatively small private wildlife reserve. We saw abundant frogs of different varieties, caimans, insects, lizards, raccoons, and night herons. Many of these critters seem comfortable enough to get quite close to them, allowing for some very good picture opportunities. Each time we ran across something knew, our guide would educate the group on what we were seeing. Ultimately we came for the small critters of the night, and we saw many. Very satisfied. Our one small complaint would be that between the halfway point and the end, the batteries in the provided flashlights seemed to be dying, reducing the light from them and making it harder to search around on your own.

Awesome wildlife tour! - Melvin was an amazing guide! We saw so many frogs, lizards, a snake, butterflies, caimans, herons, etc. My boys 8 and 9 really, really loved this, but the whole family enjoyed it! Melvin also helped take some amazing pictures with my phone.
