Great trip - The whole experience was great. They stayed in touch with me to adjust the schedule to the weather conditions, pointed out lots of crocodiles and birds and lots of interesting information. Our tour guide, Steven, I think was friendly and knowledgeable and the skipper was good too. They were also clearly environmentally aware and responsible towards the fauna.

Lots of wildlife! - One of the best tours we had during our stay in Costa Rica. The guide was knowledgeable and friendly. We saw many birds, some of them we only saw on this particular trip during our 3 weeks holiday. Of course we some impressive crocodiles too. We even saw a mother crocodile with her tiny babies.

Crocs Crocs and more Crocs - We stopped here on our way back to San Jose on our Caravan tour. We had a okay pretty typical Costa Rican lunch and then went on the boat tour. It was great. Saw lots of different birds and a ton of crocs. Didn't see any monkeys but did see them on my other river cruise where we only got a fleeting view of a crocs. Nice guide and boat driver well worth it.
