Ricardo is so knowledgable and kind to us. We could not find anything without his help! My friends and I all had a great time here with our guide. This experience is very unforgettable.

The park was absolutely beautiful! Our tour guide Edgar was so nice and was very good at finding animals. The private tour let us spend more time looking for specific animals we wanted to see. An absolutely beautiful park.

We booked our trip with Mauro and he was phenomenal! My elderly parents accompanied us and he was incredibly patient with then. We saw an ant eater, a snake, 3 sloths, capuchins, howler monkeys, halloween crabs and a ton of other wildlife thanks to Mauro. He also educated us on the flora and fauna and the history of the country. Overall, a very enjoyable trip! Highly recommend it for anyone who enjoys nature and wildlife.

This was a great guided tour. We saw so much that we would have missed without a guide. Jason was so knowledgeable, enthusiastic and engaging. We were so glad we took a tour

This tour company gave us an experience beyond our expectations today. From the time we booked this tour until we ended our adventure. Jason and Andrew kept us informed and guided us throughout with directions, where to park, ticket purchase and photo and video directions as well. We saw so many exciting wildlife and plants, and were educated while doing so in English and Spanish. We highly recommend this tour group for your next visit to Costa Rica.

We went wanting to see sloths, monkeys, and other animals. Dave, our guide, didn’t disappoint. Without him we wouldn’t have seen much of anything. His expertise showed by pointing out things we probably wouldn’t have seen without him. If you go, ask for Dave!

Andrew was a terrific guide. Very knowledgable and fun. We saw a huge variety of flora and fauna and got good photos from Andrew’s scope. He was great with the kids as well as the adults.

Jason was a terrific guide. He has an eye for spotting wildlife that we could never find on our own. Another person in our tour said, "I think we got the best guide" and I agreed she was likely right. Jason would spot things and then tell the others. He also takes beautiful photos and videos through his scope and shares them at the end so that you dont have to deal with pucture taking. Plus, he enjoys joking and making people laugh. The meetup point is right outside the park entrance and he gives very thorough instructions on how to find the tour. A great experience.

Booking a tour guide is definitely the way to go. We had Andrew and he was great with lots of educational info about the animals and insects we saw. We were able to see a lot more through the telescope he brings which was a must have!!

We really enjoyed our tour. Our guide, Fabio, was very knowledgeable, kind and obviously passioned about the natural wonders of Costa Rica. The pace was relaxed and we never felt rushed. We were fortunate to be in a small group of only 2 couples, and to also have great weather for mid June. We had the 7.30 AM on a Sunday, and it was still crowded at times, especially since many groups we encountered were very large. We saw several sloths, howler and white face monkeys, frogs, lizards, hummingbirds and more. We probably wouldn’t have spotted most of these creatures without Fabio’s help. At the end, he shared with us all of the awesome pics he took during the tour. We strongly recommend Fabio and this guided tour.

We had a great time and got to see a lot of things we would have missed if we didn’t have a guide. I love that if you have an iPhone the guide will Airdop all the photos to you that were taken through his scope. I’ve always gotten so obsessed with taking pictures that I rarely just get to enjoy the tour.

Jason was a capable guide. He pointed out all 4 species of monkeys, sloths, a brown tree snake eating a lizard, and a coati. But he promised to send me a Google link to his photos from our trip, and he never did! Bummer.

Disappointing- due to incomplete information given, we were unable to go on the tour, no refund. Please purchase tickets to the park ahead of the guided tour.

Beware - I booked a private tour and paid for it the day before it was schedule. They notified AFTER I was able to book that ticket to tne park were needed (which wasn't the problem - as tickets are only 18.50 USD) however, the park is sold out for weeks! No information was shared that you should secure your admission first! The only solution offered was to purchase admission on the secondary market for over $40 per preson. Who is buying up all the tickets to a National Park and reselling them??? They did not offer to reimburse me for my tour - which we couldn't take since the park is sold out for weeks!

During our visit to Manuel Antonio, Lurdes, our knowledgeable guide, crafted an exceptional experience, revealing animals we wouldn't have spotted without her and offering insights that ensured seamless exploration. The journey was both educational and enjoyable, fostering a deeper appreciation for the beauty of Manuel Antonio. We encountered the Common Basilisk, Common Tan Making Bat, Iguana, Common Pauraque, Squirrel Monkey, White-Faced Monkey, Howling Monkey, and Sloth – an incredible array! The tour concluded on the beach, the most beautiful I've seen, with crystal-clear water and fine sand creating a breathtaking sight. Keep your bags closed, as monkeys may try to snag something. While there are a few more hiking trails we didn't have time to explore, we plan to return for that experience. Additionally, we received detailed instructions on what to bring, how to get to the place, where to park the car, etc. Note that you must purchase a separate ticket for the park itself, and the entrance time doesn't have to align with the tour start. Wakoo Tours has a special agreement with the park. I recommend contacting them with any questions before purchasing park entry tickets. Don't forget to bring a reusable water bottle; there are water stations inside the park allowing you to refill during the tour. It's advisable to eat beforehand since bringing food isn't allowed, and food options inside the park are limited. Of course, bring a swimsuit and sunscreen—you don't want to miss the opportunity to enjoy the beach inside the park. Highly recommend this guided tour for a fulfilling and enriching adventure!
