This is a very nice combination of animals and waterfalls. A short drive (1 hour) from San Jose. You can observe toucans very closely here. Staffs here are great! Almost everyone smiles. Pablo was very friendly and he explained to us many knowledge about the toucans. We have learned a lot from him. We really enjoyed the tour here and definitely recommend here!

Great park with lots of animals, insects and birds for kids to see up close. Waterfall hike is also nice and good for kids. Note the hike is most down stairs, so need to be fit to climb stairs. Whole walk around all animal exhibits and waterfalls is only a mile.

The hike along the waterfalls is incredible - although you will need to be Ok with going up and down stairs. We saw a ton of wildlife and took a lot of neat flowers. The zoo is lots of fun too, the animals are well treated (they are mostly rescues) and the guides are very knowledable.
