Good tour. Very convenient opportunity to see animals in a beautiful nature preserve only 30 minutes from downtown. We saw howler monkeys, capuchin monkeys, sloths, caimans, lizards, and coati in addition to sloths. Maris, our guide, was friendly fun and informative.

We did see sloths and monkeys. And beautiful flowers and monkeys. However it was only a 3 hour tour and no village.

Lots of Animals!

The tour was awesome, very friendly guides. We saw so many animals that we absolutely could not have seen if we didn’t go with a tour. Highly recommended!
