Flashlights in hand

Wendy_G, Jan 2025

With flashlight in hand we saw incredible night life activities of rain forest creatures. Edson was informative and extremely helpful in taking pictures through the scope. It's an event that will last in our memories.

Was okay, wished for a little bit more

We got some amazing red eyed tree frog and see through frog pictures. But other than that, our tour guide pointed out grass hoppers, orb weaving spiders, and toads. Nothing really unique. Our tour tailgated a french tour half the time that was speaking very loudly, so couldnt hear him even if he did speak. But he was limited on talking. Basically walking and pointing out basic stuff then continuing on. I am sure there are snakes there, but our guide never really even looked down while walking... if deadly snakes were very common on that trail, i personally would look down every once in a while and check the sides, but maybe its a different mentality. We really wanted to see dart frogs at night, but our guide didnt even look. Was mainly looking in ponds, and on leaves for everything.

Loved this experience!

Would 100% do this walk again! Saul was our guide and it was great! We were very lucky to have seen some great things! Saul was knowledgeable and had a great eye for frogs, bugs, and snakes! Hopefully we get this lucky the next time we visit!
