Jean-Pierre was an amazing guide for our day at Manuel Antonio National Park. His enthusiasm was infectious and we learned so much about the flora and fauna of the area. He truly loves what he does and it shows. I would highly recommend getting a guide when visiting the park. All the guides work together to make sure you get to see all the wonderful things inside this park.

Had a shared experience with fellow Americans on my English guided tour. Alex was our guide and I would give him a 10/10. Saw monkeys, a sloth, a bunch of crabs, and my favorite, a venomous “fer de lance” snake.
