This tour is one of the most exciting, as you will be able to appreciate the nocturnal animals that are not observed during the day. When the darkness falls, it seems that everything sleeps, but in reality, the night is the awakening of a large part of the animal life, that for many people, is unknown. Depending on your preference you can choose between water or land, walking through tropical forest trails, kayaking or boating through the mangrove canals of Isla Damas.

Mangroves and Monkeys!

If you want to know all about the mangrove trees and see monkeys and other wildlife, this was a fun experience. Our tour guide was helpful, informative and willing to please. I even had a monkey eat out of my hand! Enjoyed the kayak and tour very much!

Great way to explore the Mangrove eco-system.

It was a nice kayak excursion. Start time is determined by the tides, so look at early high tide schedule and that's a out when the trout will start. ( Not necessarily the time listed in Viator). Our guide was good..He knew the animals and the unique characteristics of the plants.

Fun Family Nature Tour

This was AMAZING. Even if you haven’t kayaked before, this was safe, slow, and very relaxing. Our guide Memo was very knowledgeable and took the time to show us so many different things and explain them really well. You could tell he loved what he was doing. The farm tour at the beginning was an unexpected, very pleasant surprise.

Great tour, well worth doing!

Excellent tour. Edgar shares his vast knowledge of flora, fauna and history & culture with humour. We learned lots, and enjoyed kayaking through the mangroves. We had quite a show from the capuchin monkeys. They came very close, but Edgar made sure that we were safe and could still take photos. Our meal afterward was very good.
