An unforgettable day with Emanuel!

Michael_S, Jul 2026

We had an absolutely incredible tour through the rainforest and up to the Arenal Volcano, all thanks to our guide, Emanuel. His passion, deep knowledge, and expertise made the entire experience unforgettable. He was fantastic at spotting wildlife we never would have seen on our own and sharing fascinating details about the history and geology of the volcano. Emanuel was engaging, professional, and genuinely fun to spend the day with. If you are visiting the area, do yourself a favor and book a tour with him—he truly made our trip special!

Emmanuel is the best!

Emmanuel was fantastic. 12/10!!! He was kind, engaging, and knowledgeable about the local habitat and Costa Rican culture. Highly recommend.

This is the tour you want!

Rachel_P, Jun 2026

After this tour we felt like we could be tour guides! We learned so much! We enjoyed every part of this. Emmanuel also took time to find us animals and birds in the trees to see, we loved it. Truly a great experience with a very knowledgeable guide, don’t pass this one up! He also is an amazing photographer and took the best pictures of us throughout the whole tour. It was great and the pineapple at the end topped it all off, so refreshing. Thank you so much, Emmanuel!

Beautiful hike, incredible guide, and so many animals!

Joy_N, Mar 2026

This was one of the best hikes we’ve ever done, and that was largely because of Emmanuel! He is an incredible guide. He has so much knowledge and passion for Costa Rica, its nature, and animals, and we learnt so much from him. He went out of his way to find us monkeys, toucans, sloths, and all kinds of birds on our hike. We would not have been able to find them without him. He is also incredibly kind and funny, and we had a great time with him. We even got lunch together after! Highly recommend to anyone thinking of doing any hike or nature activities in CR!
