Let’s go make some memories

Boating in the mangroves - Juan Carlos was very knowledgable and explained a lot about the animals and the ecosystem. We were able to see a lot of birds, a crocodile, a group of howler monkeys and some sweet raccoons that we stopped to give pineapple. It was a very pleasant couple of hours.

Enchanting River Cruise - Luis was our guide. He is friendly, knowledgeable, and has Superman eyes to see point out birds and critters embedded in the forest. We saw 3 crocodiles, numerous colorful birds, raccoons, bats, monkeys, and fairly large iguana. Luis is very attentive the needs of tourists. The scenery is beautiful and peaceful. We are SO GLAD we did this!

Fantastic! - JuanCarlos was an amazing and knowledgeable guide! We saw so many great birds, monkeys and crocodiles. He went the extra mile to find different species and made sure everyone on the boat had a chance to see them.

Informative, beautiful, great value - Moises, our guide, was fantastic. It was the off-season, so he gave us a personal tour and took us deep into the mangrove by boat where we saw crocodiles, herons, regrets, raccoons and other fauna. Most impressively he offered us to join him on a turtle migration event a couple hours south where he would have us follow him and his colleagues in our own rental car. Sadly, the road conditions were not great. While other guides may have pressed the issue to make more money, he had the integrity to prioritize our safety. If the other guides are as knowledgeable, friendly and trustworthy as he is, there is no reason not to take a trip with his family business.

Waited nearly 30 min for late guests; otherwise great tour - We were waiting for 25 minutes for 2 guests who were late. It’s a bummer and the agency needs to come up with better policy to keep us on time. Otherwise we enjoyed the tour. Our tour guide is knowledgeable. Good vibes, great nature! With late departure (9:55) we came back around 11:30am just fyi
