    We had a great time with a small group of 12 exploring the national park, banana plantation, and boat ride on the canal, where we got an up-close view of a sloth climbing down a tree. Our guide Josue was informative and knowledgeable. Our driver Fernando was also very good. Overall, a very enjoyable day!

    Stephen was a wonderful guide! This tour was a highlight. We got to see so much wildlife and see how the bananas are processed. He provided a much better experience than expected and added some local insight. We were able to see sloths several times, howler monkeys, and toucans.

    Great experience

    Ariel Is the Best!!!

    Extremely knowledable guide in a nice air conditioned medium size bus. We visited a rain forest where we saw monkeys, sloths and a horned viper as well as several other animals and plants. The pace was reasonable not too slow. We saw how chocolate was made and bananas farmed and then we took a boat ride and saw more sloths.

    Already in advance we were informed extremely courteously about the course of our tour. At the port we were welcomed with a smile from Stephan. We spent the entire day exclusively with him, which made the tour very individual and personal. Stephan showed us numerous highlights and explained to us patiently and with a lot of expertise everything worth knowing about flora and fauna. We were particularly impressed not only by the well-known sights, but also by the many little information and places off the beaten track. Thanks again for this great tour and the unforgettable experience in this beautiful country!

    This excursion is a great way to discover the flora and fauna of the country. We have seen monkeys, sloths and caimans, among others. The tour guide was very competent. The bus was new and comfortable.
