EXCELLENTBased on 364 reviewsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.EJ J2024-10-02I recently had the most unforgettable experience on a wildlife tour, and Sergio Rodriguez was our guide. His deep knowledge of the local ecosystem and engaging storytelling made the trip truly exceptional. As we ventured into the lush greenery, Sergio pointed out the diverse array of wildlife that thrives in this part of Costa Rica. One of the highlights was stopping to enjoy freshly pressed sugar cane juice. Watching it being made from the raw cane right before our eyes and savoring its sweet, refreshing taste was an authentic experience of the region's rich agricultural tradition. The wildlife sightings were nothing short of magical. We were fortunate enough to see several sloths of two and three claws lounging in the treetops, blending almost perfectly into their surroundings. Their slow, deliberate movements were fascinating, and Sergio explained how their unique adaptations allow them to thrive in this environment. I felt so lucky to witness these gentle creatures in their natural habitat. The birdwatching was equally spectacular. We spotted vibrant yellow crowned night heroine and a boat-billed heron.These birds were a reminder of Costa Rica’s extraordinary biodiversity, and Sergio’s insights into their behaviors and habitats only enriched the experience. The tour was a perfect balance of adventure, education, and immersion in nature. Whether you’re a wildlife enthusiast or just someone looking to connect with the beauty of Costa Rica, this tour is a must. Thanks to Sergio’s expertise and passion, it was an experience that will stay with me for a lifetime. I highly recommend it to anyone visiting the area—you won’t be disappointed!Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.Geovanni Gonzalez2024-10-02Excelente recorrido, sergio es un conocedor magistral de la flora y la fauna costarricense.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.E F2024-09-24We hadden een Sloth tour geboekt met een gids en hij bracht ons hier naartoe.

David was a fantastic guide and I was super lucky to be the only one that booked this afternoon so I got a private tour 🤩 David was super knowledgeable about all the wildlife and was so kind in answering all my questions. He did an amazing job of spotting the animals as they're very well camouflaged, and he took some incredible photos for me on my phone through the telescope. We saw four sloths which I was super excited about, they're so cute! 😍 We also saw some really cool lizards and birds and I learnt lots about the plants as well as the wildlife. It was really fun to end the tour with the sugarcane juice and tortilla making. The vegetarian fillings were so delicious and an added bonus of a lush dessert and starfruit juice! Highly highly recommend doing this tour, it is an absolute bargain for the experience you get.
