This is a tour that you should be on! - We had them picked up on the appointed time, and on the way we went to a fruit shop, crocodile bridge, parrot tree, box observatory, delicious breakfast and Manuel Antonio Park. Guide harlem was very friendly and easy to understand in English. He explained Costa Rica, the town he was going through, and in the park he found a number of sloths, monkeys, crabs, lizards, parrots and hummingbirds, which he showed us using a professional telephoto camera, and he also photographed them through the lens on our phones. He was a very kind and cheerful harlem! Lunch at 14:00 is a very beautiful hotel. The beautiful beach view from there was also amazing! It's hard to find animals even if you go there on your own, so you should definitely join this tour.

Good trip, covering... - Good trip, covering wildlife and beaches. Breakfast was rice, beans and plantain for us vegans- could have had toast and a fruit platter. Saw Scarlett macaws, iguanas and capuchin monkeys. Lovely lunch at a rooftop restaurant and an hour beach time. Agustin was once again a fantastic guide and sent us photos he’d taken with his professional lens the day after our tour.

Manuel Antonio Park trip warnings - A very enjoyable trip, but be advised that it is a three hour drive from San Jose' to the park. Consider this if you are thinking about bringing children. Secondly, I found it annoying that on our return to San Jose', the guide ambushed the clientele by asking that we give him and the driver a tip.
