Amazing tour
If you are debating getting a tour guide for manuel antonio park, think no more. Our tour guide, Mop, was so knowledgeable and with such a keen eye, if he wouldn't have been there we would have missed just about everything. Totally recommend booking with Mop!!

Unforgettable Experience
Such an unforgettable ATV experience! From start to finish, the guides were amazing and super helpful, attentive, and always making sure everyone felt safe and comfortable. That said, the ride itself was no joke 😅 some of those hills had me holding on for dear life, but it just made it that much more exciting!
We made three really special stops along the way. The first was a small local village where we got to hear directly from community member. The second stop was at a peaceful little lake where they surprised us with fresh pineapple (so good after the ride!). And the final stop was the highlight. We reached the closest accessible point to the volcano, parked, and took a short 5-minute hike to see the lava rocks up close. Such a surreal moment.
Highly recommend this tour if you’re looking for a mix of adventure, culture, and incredible views!

Thank you Javier! Amazing tour!
Javier was an amazing guide! Incredible ability to find animals that we otherwise would not have seen. He was really knowledgeable and smart. We saw 3 sloths (1 baby), a snake, many Capuchin Monkeys throughout the park and several bats. Thank you Javier for an exceptional tour!

Had a great time!
Jason was a great guide. Saw sloths four times, plus frogs and the national bird. Saw him later after our tour and he showed me a picture of a boa constrictor he saw just after our tour.
If you are thinking about doing a self guided tour don’t waste your money. It takes a trained eye to spot the sloths!!!

This was a great...
This was a great experience and skipping the line on Easter Sunday was well worth it! We got right in and were able to swim at the waterfall. This was great afternoon excursion for our family! We loved this tucked away area of La Fortuna where sloths and monkeys put on a show in the trees overhead!

Sloths
This was an awesome experience. How do you come to Costa Rica and not come see the sloths. We were the only ones for our tour, so that was awesome. We saw monkeys, red poison frogs, basilisk lizards, lots of different birds, 7 sloths including one baby sloth. So cool. Got lots of great pictures. Our tour guide was awesome, she could really spot everything and helped us with taking some awesome pics and videos. I would highly recommend this tour.

I would definitely recommend this tour. Waterfall is crowded but still awesome. Horses are fairly easy to ride.
This was a pretty awesome experience. It was awesome for me because I have never been on a horse before but you also still get to see a very stunning waterfall. When you get to the start of the steps down to the waterfall, you leave the horses and have the option of doing the steps down to the waterfall or going to an observation point which is nice for a broader group of people. I did the steps down because you get to swim near the waterfall. The steps down and up were not extremely difficult. It gets a bit tiring on the way up but id say its still doable for most. The waterfall swimming area is very crowded since its open to the public which is unfortunate but you can still find your way to get your own pictures with enough effort. You do get about 45 mins to swim and hang out though so thats nice. And then a simple ride back on the horse. Would definitely recommend this tour

Monteverde Preserve tour
Our guide, Roy , was very knowledgeable. We got awesome pics of many different birds and lots of interesting information about the forest plant life and history. He was so patient with us giving plenty of time for photos. Would definitely recommend him for a good tour!

Stephen was...
Stephen was knowledgeable, engaging, and made the tour feel fun and interactive. He shared so many interesting facts about the crocodiles and the surrounding wildlife while keeping everything safe and professional. You can tell he genuinely enjoys what he does.
Seeing the crocodiles up close in their natural habitat was unforgettable. The scenery was beautiful, and the entire experience felt authentic and worth every minute.

The snorkeling and sunset...
The snorkeling and sunset tour was incredible. The boat ride was fun and adventurous and the scenery was absolutely stunning. The crew made the experience even better with great energy l along the way. Highly recommend this excursion to anyone visiting Costa Rica, literally a must see.

ATV/Zip experience
The atv portion was great. I think I was fortunate in only having 4 people in the group. I saw a group of over 10 and it looked like a miserable conga line. The halfway point being a waterfall was a nice surprise.
The zip lining experience was also amazing. Even with it being my first time, the safety instructors gave me the confidence as if it was my hundredth time. 10/10 bonus points for it being a rainstorm prior to speed the wires up!
