This was such a great tour! We were able to spot 5 sloths along with countless other types of flora and fauna. Our tour guide, Mary, who was a biology student at the University, was amazing. She was so friendly, knowledgeable and patient. We also loved that the proceeds went towards helping the University biology program and its students. Thank you so much Mary for the truly wonderful experience!!!

Excellent tour with our guide, Sara. Very well organized and paced. We were very fortunate to see three of the wild sloths, two two lingered ones and one three fingered one. The butterfly garden was a nice way to end the tour. Overall, one of the highlights of our 8 days in San Jose.
