Must-do experience - Sandy was a great guide, he could answer all our questions and found us some cool wildlife! We saw a cayman (my highlight), a spider monkey, howlers, 2 sloths and loads of cool birds/bats. A must do in Tortuguero, especially early in the morning

Great tour and guide - We had a flexible guide, it was pouring rain when we were supposed to leave at 6am. Our guide, Diego, proposed to leave at 9am, by then it had stopped raining. We did our tour completely dry. We saw some great animals, like a Cayman, howler monkeys, ara's, sloths, different kinds of birds and iguana's. Definitely recommend this tour, we would not have been able to spot these animals on our own.

Great tours into the heart of the rainforest - The tour provider was recommended to us by our accommodation and we are glad to have followed the recommendation. We booked 2 tours with Tuanis Tour and both were really great! The night hike with mainly spiders, frogs, birds and a sloth led through the nocturnal rainforest with all its sounds and the early morning canoe tour took us into the green silence of the canals. Our guide was Diego both times and we loved him! He told us a lot and was very attentive and paid close attention to our wishes. We were very lucky to be alone with him both times, so there was plenty of time for all our questions. He was well equipped with a lot of knowledge about the nature and animals of the national park as well as lamps and binoculars. The electric motor of the canoe was not heard so our coming was not immediately revealed and we could observe a lot of animals up close. We highly recommend Tuanis Tour Tortuguero!

Delve into the Tortuguero canals - The tour with Jairo and Maverick was one of the most complete tours we have had in Costa Rica. We canoeed and saw alligators, iguanas, spider monkeys and howlers, several birds, including the aninga... Jairo explained everything and was available to our questions. Highly recommended.

Paddle the backwaters of the lagoon - Lovely relaxing paddle boat tour of the lagoon and canals. Saw lots of cayman, iguana and heron and our guide Jairo was friendly and knowledgable with excellent English. We paddled all the way which was much more relaxing than the electric or motor boats that disturb the wildlife. Strongly recommend this tour.

A wonderful few hours - We all really enjoyed our early morning canoe tour with Tuanis tours. It is most definitely worth getting up early to go and do this tour. The day begins with coffee, juice and a light snack which is needed as you get a long tour. As it is early you get to see a whole variety of animals as well as appreciate the beautiful location. Luis was a great guide and gave us lots of information about the animals as well as being able to spot things we couldn’t! Thank you for a very special few hours.

Unforgettable experience! - It was an amazing experience. Birds, crocodiles, plants and an incredible atmosphere were enough to love it and to be back again. Luis, our guide, was excellent as well as the company.

Nature everywhere - It's a great opportunity to observe nature. It is a quiet canoe ride and the scenery is beautiful. You have to be very vigilant because the animals camouflage themselves. It's a nice walk.
