Top Costa Rica Nature and Wildlife Tours

Perfect length ride out to the swimming spot. We were able to jump off the top deck or go down the slide into the water. Sun mats to lay out and catch a quick nap before they serve you lunch….which was amazing. Crew members were all very nice and helpful!

We enjoyed our time at Manuel Antonio with Mile as our guide. She was so knowledgeable about the wildlife, what they were and where to find them, and what significance they brought to the area. The park itself is beautiful; it was a great day topped off by a wonderful beach stop for what may be the best beach in CR. I definitely recommend using a guide as we wouldn’t have come close to seeing all the things we did without her.

Fun day with excellent service and great food. We boarded CostaCat promptly at 715 and we're immediately served fresh fruit, carrot muffins, & coffee. The ride over to tortuga island was lovely and we saw a couple of sea turtles and a few dolphins. (The ride made at least 1 passenger ill, so be prepared.) The staff had chairs & umbrellas arranged for each group (ie. 4 chairs specifically for our family of 3), ready for arrival. We were immediately served drinks and invited to enjoy the beach & ocean. There are scheduled activities: snorkeling at 9:30, lunch at 11:15, banana boat ride &/or short hike to a pretty viewpoint after lunch. Lunch was excellent and seemed unlimited. Throughout the day the staff are constantly circulating to check on guests, collect used cups, offer assistance, bring the drinks of your choice. For snorkeling, people are provided with a life vest, goggle/mask, & snorkel, then we board small boats to go to a platform near some rocky islands. As soon as you jump in, you see an assortment of fish and have 20-30 minutes to snorkel around the rocky area. Staff are watching carefully and work to keep everyone a safe distance from the rocks and from the path of any other boats. I really enjoyed this part of the day and saw a nice variety of fish & urchins. The water is turquoise, the beach is light sand mixed with rocks and coral fragments and the waves a fun to play in. The "hike" was very short to a lovely viewpoint. It was too hot in the afternoon to want to go on the full loop. We saw javelina, a deer, iguanas, and crabs on the island as well as a sea turtle from the overlook. The day was very enjoyable and my teen daughter says it was her favorite day of our vacation.

This was an amazing boat ride through the mangroves. Javier, our guide, was absolutely the best, very knowledgeable and excellent at explaining everything. We had the opportunity to be with the white face monkeys in our boat. They just hopped on the boat and were very sweet and friendly. Javier explained that those were juveniles so it was safe and it was okay. He also pointed out that we should watch for the older ones. The entire experience was just amazing. Lunch was really good and the hotel pick up was right on time. Excellent service.

This was an awesome tour. I've been to a couple different other tours in La Fortuna over the years and this was my favorite. The staff is exceptional from start to finish. Augustin was an amazing tour guide, very knowledgeable and funny! Will definitely be booking here again when I am back in La Fortuna!

We bought tickets for 4 hours of boating, drinks and snorkeling..this experience went above and beyond our expectations! The open bar made most amazing drinks and quick! With one bartender I wasn't sure but wow! The food- incredible. The snorking was awesome. We went to a clean crystal clear beach where we seen sooo many manterays. Something stung my arm and when I returned to the boat one of the staff got me something on a paper towel that made the marks on my arm disappear. The staff was awesome and even took us to the spots and pointed out all the wildlife - dolphins , sea turtles and more. They were friendly and informative! Can't rave more about this trip! Me and my 3 friends went on many different catermarans(mind my spelling) and we all agreed this one was by far the best! Thank you so much !

Everything about this trip was fantastic. The staff were all professional, warm, and amazing hosts. There were great drinks, delicious food, fun music, and beautiful scenery. We even saw a Humpback whale and her baby even though it was out of season! Allan in particular was fantastic!

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!
