Hangin' with the Sloths! - The sloths, Toucan, Macaws and other rescued creatures are being so well cared for and in most cases rehabilitated for return to their natural habitat. The staff is wonderful and so informative. They are doing wonderful things and I recommend this trip to everyone who loves animals! .

Sloth Encounter - Just know that the word private in the title of the trip means private transportation. Once you get to the rescue center, you will be put with a small group (about ten people). HOWEVER, we were pleasantly surprised that our visit at the center was titled "Slothies and Coffee". It was a small group sloth experience that we were not expecting. We were treated to coffee and pastries as we learned about the rescue center, and then they brought out Landon the Sloth. We were right next to his tree - no cage to disrupt viewing- and we watched him forever. Super cool! Then we were taken on a tour of the remainder of the center to look at the other animals.

Rescuing Center provides a fabulous experience! - This time at the Toucan Rescue Center was truly one of the most experiences in Costa Rica! A very well educated group of staff working diligently to save animals and birds. I learned more about sloths than I could imagine!! And watching Millie was a spectacular treat I’ll never forget. I encourage everyone to spend time at this tour!!

Very nice - Oscar my driver was very nice and knew a lot about coste rica. If you are looking for a solo trip he will make sure you feel safe. The tour was great and all the animals are well care for and healthy. They get all their favorite foods and bedding. Very nice place.

Great tour - The tour guide was very knowledgeable and pleasant. It was so wonderful to see Costa Rica. The sloths are so interesting. I really enjoyed my time. The restaurant that we ate at was so delicious and authentic. It was really neat to experience the culture. Everything was as expected. I would just suggest perhaps starting the trip as early as possible since we hit some traffic on the way back and it took much longer to come back.

MY FIRST SLOTH - This was my first time of ever seeing a sloth and omg! so worth the trip:) Oskur was my guide from Destiny Travel and he was so friendly and provided me with so much information about Costa Rica! Joci was my tour guide at the Rescue and she was great! So full of information and background of every animal we came across. This tour may be a little pricey but all proceeds go to the Rescue and it's by reservation only, so you'll pretty much be the only ones there! Have fun!

Sloths - Everything I expected. Thanks for a wonderful afternoon. This trip was both enjoyable and informative 👌

Meeting Latte the Sloth - This was an amazing experience. The Toucan and Sloth Rescue Ranch is a wonderful place. Their mission to rehabilitate birds and animals that have been mistreated, hurt or are in otherwise need of care is so needed and they do a terrific job. We were treated to a video and then a personal visit with Latte the Sloth and guided by Alejandra through the whole campus with a complete run down of each animal's history and progress. What a treat. It is obvious that this is not a job for the staff and volunteers it is a calling.

Great Trip Overall - but overpriced from this particular company - The Wildlife Center itself was wonderful. Sadly, lots of rescues, but all very well-maintained on rustic grounds and with people who have great knowledge of all of them; and seem like they really care. We were glad to have this very personal experience . What we didn't like was that the Viator listing made it seem like we were being picked up by a professional tour bus and traveling waaaaaay out into the forest/jungle to visit this place. In fact, some random (but wonderful) guy picked us up in his personal vehicle- and the trip was extremely short, just out of San Jose. Overall, the guy was great and he pointed out things here and there. His English was better than he thought it was; but for the money we paid- I would have rather given it directly to the driver for his knowledge and safe driving, rather than dole it out to the Company who sent him. All-in-all, a good trip but, we know what the company paid for our admission and we know how far the distance was. The fair price should have been way less than $150 per person. Had we know about the sanctuary ourselves, we could have taxi'd there, visited; and then left a good donation AND tipped our taxi driver for about $165.00 all in. That's the only reason they got three stars: random dude in his own car and overpriced.

Too expensive for a 1 hour tour - Trip was very expensive. More time spent on the drive than the actual tour. The rescue center was informative but only saw around 10 different animals. Not a good value
