Tortuguero, My favorite place to see in C. R. - Our guide was Arturo & he was fantastic! I would’ve loved to wander around the village, but my husband & nieto loved climbing all those stairs in Parque Carrillo to see the view from the mountain top.

Great day - We had a bit of a soggy day, but it was fabulous. The boat ride was the highlight of our trip. Our tour guide was extremely knowledgeable and excited to do whatever we wanted to do during the day. Well worth the time and money.

Absolutely Worth Every penny! - What a great way to spend a day watching nature in action! Got picked up from my hotel and headed out to a restaurant about a hour outside of the city to grab breakfast, after that we headed straight to the national park and got to witness several species of animals in their natural habitat! Also got to see the Caribbean Sea which was breathtaking! Many special thanks to my tour guide Ricardo and boat operator Ronnie!

Great Day - Thanks to our tour guide, Jerry from Destiny Travel, our trip to Tortuguero National Park was amazing. Jerry was very engaging with our group; very knowledgeable about the park, animals and foliage. We hiked through the park to the top of a volcano.....it didn't rain in the rain forest, IT POURED! Jerry was very positive and encouraging the entire day. Definitely worth the full day we spent on this trip.

Cruise the canals of Tortuguero National Park. - What an awesome tour!! Our tour guide Ricardo was awesome, knowledgeable and interesting. As we took a boat down the canals, we saw all kinds of wildlife. Howler monkeys, spider monkeys, lizards, iguanas, crocodiles, black vultures, kingfishers and herons to name a few. The tour also included a walk through the forest along a very nice trail. Breakfast and lunch included and was delicious!!

Tortuguero day tour - We saw many animals on this day trip to Tortuguero. Arturo did a great job finding animals and explaining species. We would definitely recommend it. We will probably come back for a night tour of the turtles nesting on the beach.

Tortuguero day trip - We booked a day trip to Tortuguero from San Jose with Destiny Travel. We were picked up at the hotel at 5:45 am and got back at around 5 pm. Our guide was very nice and knowledgeable. We stopped for breakfast and later for lunch at "sodas" where the food was not that good. We saw few animals on our trip. Although the trip was during the season when turtles lay eggs on the beach in Tortuguero we did not see any, as that usually happens at night. So if you want to see turtles you need to stay overnight. Overall I think the trip was overpriced and I would not do it again.
