Silky Ant Eater! - Very HOT day and the kayaking can be strenuous across the lake. We saw a few scarlet ibis and had a blast! Taking the tour in the evening when the birds are returning is likely better but we were in a cruise and didn’t have that option. Highlight was seeing this silky ant eater! Guides (Dominick) were professional and bus ride from ship was short. Would do it again. Great value!

10 out of 10 - Dominic was fantastic! He called me to talk over the best time to visit, picked me up and dropped me off at my hotel. He was very knowledgeable about the area and all of the wildlife. He pointed out and told me facts about both the plants and the animals, including some snakes that I didn't expect to see, he also made bird calls to attract some of the birds. It was my first time kayaking and Dominic shared the kayak with me and gave me instructions on what to do and made me feel safe.

Canal voyage - Awesome experience. My tour guide Dominick was well versed on the history of the waterways as well as the nearby Sanctuary. The navigation of the waterways would be fairly easy even for the inexperienced. Thru this passage we came across several bird species, snakes & cayman. Dominick knew all the spots with high animal activities. I would recommend bringing binoculars for the best experience. The pricing is moderate considering u have tour guide & can bring a 2nd person for the same price of 1. Well worth the money, I'd recommend it to ALL adventure seeker visiting Trinidad. Make sure ask for Dominick😉
