    Best Experience!

    This experience was everything we can ask for and more! Our tour guide Luis Venegas asked us what are the things we wanted to see. We saw that and more! We were a bit worried as we chose the last time slot of the day and we were coming from Jaco but it turned out to be perfect! There’s not anything there that we didn’t see between sloths, monkeys, tuscans and snakes we saw it all! Thank you for this experience this was one of the best parts of our trips here to Costa Rica. Luis is the best!!

    We spent two hours in Manuel Antonio National Park with our guide Albin. We saw an incredible amount of animals in that time largely due to Albin's talent to spot even the tiniest of animals. Definitely worth going on a tour as I think it made the trip much better as we were able to see animals we otherwise wouldn't have been able to spot. We saw sloths, monkeys, bats, hummingbirds, lizards, crabs and more!

    Great guided tour with Luis. Saw sloths, monkeys, agouti and lots of other wildlife that we would not have seen without a guide. The swim at the beaches was lovely. We then went on a walk around the peninsula where we saw lots of monkeys and deer. Well worth the trip

    Excellent Tour!

    Amazing wildlife spotting experience! Our guide’s expert eyes found so many animals we’d never have noticed - sloths, monkeys, colorful birds & tiny insects. The spotting scope gave incredible close-ups. Small group made it personal. Easy 2.2km walk perfect for all ages. Highly recommend this tour!

    Manuel Antonio guided Tour

    Albin Gutierrez, was an excellent guide! We enjoyed every minute of our tour with him. He was very knowledgeable about the different animals and was able to find so many. We saw 3 different monkey species - white face monkeys, squirrel monkeys and howler monkeys and several 3 towed sloths. Further we got to see a bunch of other things like nesting birds, bats, frogs, lizards, snakes and insects. Albin was also very entertaining and taught us some Spanish through out the tour. Our 16 year old son loved it too! I can highly recommend this tour with Albin in Manuel Antonio’s National Park.

    Our guide Felix was amazing. We were constantly in awe of his ability to find the most camouflaged or hidden animals and then position us all to see it clearly. He was informative, providing great detail about all aspects of the park and wildlife. He had the perfect pace and seemed to intuitively know what our family would find interesting. He was kind (helping many of the other tours to find the important sights). We enjoyed every moment. I was very happy to be in a small group (just our family of 5), because it allowed us to see more in less time. Some groups were so big that it took quite a bit of time for each of them to see through the scope and they were loud … scaring away the animals. Please do not hesitate to use a guide… you will see so much more than on your own! Felix was the best!

    Great time!

    We had an great time on the tour with Felix. He took the time to explain so many animals and plants we wouldn't have seen without him. He even went out of his way when there was a monkey troop in another area to take us there. We saw sloths, howlers, and white faced monkeys. It's something we will get to keep as a memory and he helped us take pictures through the view finder. Definitely 5 stars.

    Amazing Tour!

    This was such an amazing experience! We saw 3 kinds of monkeys, sloths, lizards, birds, a caiman, frogs, bats, and more! We wouldn’t have seen any of it without our guide, Kevin, who was so awesome and knowledgeable and took amazing pictures and videos of the wildlife on our phones through his magnifying scope (which also gave us close-up views of the animals). The walk ended at the beach which was exactly what we wanted. Would recommend to anyone!

    Our tour of Manuel Antonio NP with Luis was fantastic! We really enjoyed seeing many monkeys, crabs, birds, plants, and five sloths - WOW! And we appreciated the excellent information Luis provided, how he answered all our questions, and his funny sense of humor. Luis also sent us all the photos and videos he took from his telescope/binoculars. This experience exceeded our expectations - thank you Luis!
