Exploration of a mangrove forest at its finest

Kerry_T, Feb 2025
Such a tranquil beautiful experience Got to see a determined sloth on the move and kayaks right underneath the mangrove trees. The beach fruit picnic and foraged coconuts were so refreshing. Beautiful. Ariel so knowledgable and a tru BriBri local too.

Fantastic Experience

Thanks for choosing this experience

Wonderful, but the information is false, does not include transportation!!

Rocio_Z, Jun 2025
THE EXPERIENCE WAS AMAZING!!!! But very bad hire him here!!! In the description it says that it includes transportation and DOES NOT INCLUDE IT, in our case, the transportation was almost equal to the amount of the tour, when I tried to solve it before travel, they never resolved me, they told me that it was not refundable despite being false information!, however, our tour was an experience that we recommend 1000%, Braulio was the best guide!! It is a relaxed tour that gives you time to enjoy every corner!!!
