We enjoyed an easy morning hike through the National Park with our personal guide Daniel. We were completely impressed with Daniel's extensive knowledge of the local ecosystem. He... read more provided an amazing amount of information about both the flora and fauna of the park pointing out both plants and animals in plain site as well as those that were camouflaged. Daniel's dedication and enthusiasm for his profession was obvious throughout our tour!

  Great experience! Our guide Warner was cheerful, knowledgeable, and fun. We saw capuchin, a baby croc, basilisk lizards, a mangrove snake, ibis, and tons of crabs. It was a beautiful,... read more relaxing, and active time.

  We just got home from our tour today with Carla and I haven't a single negative thing to say! She is by far the best guide we have had on... read more our trip. She was so kind, patient with our kids, and knowledgeable about everything around us! She even recommended some food shops where we could find some specific cuisine. I would give today 10 stars if I could.

  We had a private transfer from Manuel Antonio to Sierpe. The driver showed up prior to our pick up time. We weren't that far from being picked up... read more and he stopped as he saw some squirrel monkeys on the power/telephone lines. We got some great pics then further down the road, he stopped as he saw a 3 toed sloth. How he saw it, we will never know but we were so excited that he stopped so we could get pictures and he never rushed us. We stopped again for 2 toed sloth that he spotted. How lucky were we? Again we got great pictures and he gave us as much time as we needed. We were so excited that not only was it a private transfer for 2 of us girls but we saw animals as well. It was truly appreciated it and very memorable. …

  Excellent company! We had a very good guide called Karla! Knowledgeable and humble! Outstanding walk in the park with the star of the show a 2toed sloth and baby!

  Tour guides were excellent, we saw a bunch of wildlife, and even had a good dinner after! We enjoyed ourselves immensely and definitely recommend!

  We had a great time on our guided tour along the mangroves. We learned a lot and had a blast while doing it. If it’s going to be sunny put... read more extra sunscreen on. Our legs got a bit red but we were pretty white to begin with! The lunch afterwards was amazing just like all the other food we ate while in Costa Rica. Our guide Allan helped us make celebrating our anniversary so special!

  We had an amazing half day tour of Manuel Antonio National Park. We were picked up at our hotel in a nice bus and started our search for animals... read more even before we arrived at the National Park. Our guide Alan did an amazing job with our group of 10 (including my family of 4). We saw a ton of animals (sloths, monkeys, frogs, spiders, grasshoppers, iguana and more) and captured some incredible pictures on my iPhone using Alan’s monocular. We had a 25 minute break at Manuel Antonio beach to go into the ocean which was refreshing and beautiful. The end of the tour they provided fresh fruit (pineapple and watermelon) and water / peach iced tea. My teen girls and wife were highly engaged and enjoyed the tour as well. Highly recommend Tucanes Tour and Alan who spoke excellent English. PURA VIDA.

  This was a great way to see some wildlife that may be right next to you worth out you even knowing it was there. Roy, our tour guide was... read more able to find things and show them to us that we wouldn’t have seen walking on our own. You get to see the rain forest, mangrove swamp area and national beaches. You can stay on the beach and relax if you choose. Great tour!

  Alan was great as a tour guide. He was very knowledgeable and adapted quickly to the crowds. He is an obvious favorite with his peers

  I would like to recommend our guide Karla. She is very good at spotting the animals; fully fluent in English; very knowledgeable; and, generally, just a very pleasant person!

  Nikolas is the man to go with! Super fun. Photos were amazing. Good crew. Safe trip. We had a an awesome time. Non stop fun and laughter.

  We had a great morning with our guide who spotted loads for us to see. He was really knowledgable. We saw sloths, howler monkeys, racoon, crabs, snakes and more.

  We had a great walk through Manuel Antonio national park although we were a bit sceptical at first. The entrance was very crowded and the main road was equally busy.... read more But our guide took us in the opposite direction of all the other groups to avoid other people. Of all the national parks we saw the most animals here, mainly thanks to our great guide Allan.

  Had a beautiful afternoon kayaking snorkeling and relaxing at the beach with our guide Gustavo. Thanks!

  We took this tour with Harold, our guide, and it was really excellent! It was our last tour in a 3 week visit to Costa Rica - in fact our... read more 17th guided tour - and it was the best! Harold is obviously a very skilled wildlife expert, but also has very good people skills; he listened to our previous experiences, and honed his tour to our needs and interests.
He adeptly got us through the bureaucracy of admission to the park, and led us on a fascinating walk through the park.
It was a Sunday, and the park is very popular, but there are daily entry quotas, and we did not feel at all overwhelmed by the other visitors; Harold often led us to quieter spots where he had spotted something we would find interesting.
We saw many Capuchins, and heard about the problems that feeding wildlife produces and the reasons it is forbidden. Harold found a wonderful mother and baby sloth for us, and deftly set up his viewing telescope, which gave great close-up views and prompted fascinating discussion about the ecosystem in sloth fur, and their behaviour. Harold also showed us 2 ground-resting nightjars, an amazing feat of pattern recognition to spot these highly camouflaged birds.
The tour included collection and return from our hotel, and a refreshing stop for fresh fruit and cold drinks on exit from the park.
Our visit was definitely a highlight of our stay, and we thoroughly recommend this tour.

  We had Alezandro as our guide and this dude has an eagle eye. He was seeing couple centimeter size lizards with his naked eye from quite a waze away. Definitely... read more a professional who loves his job and kept the hike fun and informative the whole time. Do the tour.

  We were picked up early morning, at our hotel, by Cesar from Tucanes Tours. We had a short shuttle ride to the Tucanes Farm where our group of... read more 8 was saddled up and ready to go. Justin, one of the the owner/organizers, stated that it might rain if we wanted to change any plans...but we decided to go head-on rain or shine.
I was good to go, with a little rain, but in the back of my mind I was a little worried about the rest of the group getting too wet and being uncomfortable. When we arrived at the farm we endured a little sprinkle but as we hit the trail in the Loddres area, then it started with a pretty good downpour. Let me tell you...5 minutes into the rainy trail ride turn into an absolutely majestic morning!!! I am so glad we opted to ride in the rain because it was an absolutely amazing day!!! We stopped at a great little waterfall and dismounted for some photos and to stretch our legs. When we returned to the farm the rain was back to just a little sprinkle. As we shed some of our wet attire a private cook prepared a Costa Rica Family lunch for the group, called Casado. Everyone was very pleasant and accommodating throughout the day. We ate our lunch, rested a little bit, and chatted and took pictures around the farm before the shuttle ride back to the hotel.

  I really was not enjoying this outing /before I got the second degree sunburn on my legs. I had left my sunscreen in our car back at the restaurant where... read more we met the tour. After a beautiful 2-1/2 hour row over and back over a small bay, my lower legs were deep-fried--a rookie mistake I will not make again.

I would have appreciated more help fitting the life vest that kept riding up and interfering with the snorkel. I abandoned the struggle and just swam. My friends were more successful and saw a few sea creatures though the water was murky that morning. They had hoped to receive more information from our guide about the local terrestrial wildlife. I would have appreciated any pointers on rowing a 2-person kayak, but we got the job done. Included luncheon at Los Tucanes restaurant after was very fresh (fish) and tasty. The restaurant has a bar, changing rooms with showers and a small sundries shop.

  Our transfer was smooth, easy and hassle free. Pedro was fabulous! Our bus was clean and comfortable. Air conditioning and free wifi were included. Highly recommend!!

We saw plenty of animals and were probably very lucky to be the only 2 people on the boat so had a personal tour. Would recommend this company and this trip most highly

  We had a great day on the river with these guides. They picked us up right on time, took us to the river in an open 4-wheel drive truck. They... read more set us up with helmets, life jackets and paddles and gave us instructions how to float the river without falling out. After a nice snack at the river, we were taken to lunch and back to the Hotel. I believe they are the best tour company.

  Lisandro and Charley were excellent! Very patient and helpful! We saw sloths, Monkeys, lizards, crabs and lots more!
