EXCELLENT Based on 497 reviews Nick Tennant2025-03-28Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. This was the highlight of our time in La Fortuna. I would absolutely recommend it. Our tour guide Davide was exceptional, personable, knowledgeable and humorous. We really don’t like your standard, boring tours where you spend hours with a large group and it feels commercialized. This is the exact opposite. You learn so much in a small group and it’s a hands-on educational and cultural experience. Skip other tours and do yourself a favor and book this one. Kim Guthke2025-03-26Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. What a wonderful place to see wildlife and have a delicious lunch. We had a fabulous time wandering in the trail seeing sloths, owls, frogs and so many gorgeous birds. The couple that runs Mariolas is so kind and lovely! Marisha Gardisser2025-03-25Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had an incredible twilight tour at La Fortuna Hikes & Trails! Our guide, David, was amazing—so knowledgeable and passionate about the wildlife. Even though the rain wasn’t on our side, we still spotted a couple of sloths and many other fascinating animals. The red-eyed tree frog was definitely a highlight! To top it off, the homemade tortillas and snacks prepared by the owner were a perfect touch. A truly unforgettable experience—highly recommend! Berta RG2025-03-24Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Es una empresa familiar y cercana. Hicimos el Night Walk con la guía Jamie y el dueño del terreno. Primero tuvo lugar el taller de cocina, en el cual hicimos y degustamos comida típica de Costa Rica. Después la caminata, durante la cual vimos muchos animales (ranas, serpientes, basiliscos, perezosos, murciélagos...). Definitivamente recomendable. Dietrich Potts2025-03-23Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. This was an amazing experience! So worth the money for the experience. I saw several sloths, an owl, several basalisks, and a number of birds. 10/10 experience especially for the price! Andrea H2025-03-23Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Enjoyed the night walk, but felt the tortilla "making" was irrelevant and would have preferred to pay a lower price and skip that particular activity. Marc Bourassa2025-03-22Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Très bon guide, nous avons eu la chance de voir un paresseux à 6 pieds en train de monter dans l'arbre, plusieurs oiseaux, un lézard, chauve-souris plusieurs explications très interactif comme guide, puis extraction du jus de la canne à sucre et fabrication de tortias nous même😊 Dilan Valencia2025-03-21Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Sergio (guide) was very diligent. I did the sloth tour and cooking (tortilla) class. We got to see a variety of wild life and, after we were done with the walk, we got to experience a few Costa Rican small bites. These were very tasty. Totally recommend if you want to do something a bit different in La Fortuna. It’s within walking distance from the “downtown” Fortuna. Tom Wolf2025-03-21Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Ein kleine Oase für Faultiere. Der Besuch lohnt sich immer. Wir hatten einen tollen Guide, Sergio, der mit viel Humor und Wissen uns unterhalten hat. Die Liebe zur Natur und den dort lebenden Tieren ist spürbar. Fa2025-03-18Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Om 8:30 een tour gehad met jamey. Veel dieren en bloemen gezien. Daarna suikerwater geperst en vervolgens een lekkere snack bereid. 32 dollar voor een volwassene en een kind van 4 was gratis. Erg leuk!
