Costa Rican nationals pay less: 1,808 colones for adults, 565 colones for kids aged 6-11, and under-6s are free. The odd figure is due to the taxes added to the base ticket rate.

Early morning is the best time to visit Manuel Antonio National Park. The weather is cooler then, making it more comfortable to walk around, and it’s generally less crowded. The dry season (December–April) is the best time of year to visit for your comfort; bring rain jackets between May and November.

Q: Are there any food and drink options inside Manuel Antonio National Park?

Yes, a cafeteria in Manuel National Park sells a range of food and non-alcoholic drinks and drinking water is available. You’re not allowed to bring in your own food or alcoholic drinks because the park attempts to minimize trash in this beautiful natural environment. The cafeteria also sells some souvenirs.

Q: Can I visit Manuel Antonio National Park with a stroller or wheelchair?

Yes, you can visit Manuel Antonio National Park with a stroller or wheelchair, but the park isn’t fully accessible. Some paths are reasonably accessible and easy to navigate, but some paths aren’t considered accessible.

I would highly recommend...

I would highly recommend El Santuario Canopy tours! My family and I (kids 11 and 15) had an amazing time! The guides were amazing, fun and nice, and safety was clearly a priority! Added bonus was the delicious meal at the end! It was an amazing experience we would recommend to anyone looking to zip line in Manuel Antonio!

Manuel Antonio National Park is a must see but I would strongly recommend a guide.There were many things we would’ve missed without the guide pointing them out! Albin was our guide and he was very knowledgeable and had a good sense of humor. if you want to enjoy the beach after the tour, be sure and take or wear a swimming suit.

Nothing beats a guided tour with Ivan😊

Amazing and funny guide. Very knowledgeable, concerned with safety and will go out of his way to show you interesting flora and fauna. This tour is worth every penny specially when you are in a small group and nice guide. His equipment was top notch and he even made sure we had photos and videos of everything that we saw through the lenses. Muchos gracias Ivan! Highly recommended!

Manuel Antonio National Park Sightseeing and Wildlife Day Tour from San Jose

Hugo_S, Dec 2025

A must see!

Beautiful Park, it is a must see. It is very far from San Jose City, time on Van is a lot more than the one you can spend there. It is a Shane as beaches are great too spend time with family and the visit to the jungle might need more time as well. Clean, great place, great people, great guide, Alex, food on time. I would definitely come back in an earlier schedule or for a couple of days.

If I had to do again I would have done the private tour. Our guide Johnny was so knowledgeable and interactive. I really appreciated all his education. Going on a group delays and slows things down so toward the end i got to the point where u wanted to just go off on my own. Johnny was the highlight of our experience.
