Unbelievable experience!

Diego was fantastic! He had such a keen eye, was very knowledgeable, patient, and friendly. Recommend going later in the morning when the crowds dissipate and more animals come out of hiding like we did. Beaches were beautiful as well. Very humid day so the beach was a great way to cool off. Diego shared his pictures with us as well which was another bonus!

Easy going and fun!

It was just enough trailing and animal/creature seeking. Our tour guide, Albin, was super nice, went along at our pace, and even taught us some Spanish. It was worth having someone point out things you probably wouldn’t have seen on your own. The beach was nice but we forgot to bring bathing suits. Albin helped us take photos and create unforgettable memories.

Manuel Antonio guided tour

Really worth having the guide who knows so much about the animals in the park. Best part was that he could spot the animals and using his telescope could show us a close up look of them. Our guide's name was Kevin who was a young, well educated young man. His English was impeccable and his knowledge of the animals endless. He was very down to earth and approachable. His photography skills were amazing and he graciously shared his pictures with us after the tour.
