Very nice day trip. Our small group of six travelled in a minivan. We were met and dropped off in a timely manner at the end of the pier. Our guide (Flora) was friendly, enthusiastic and well organized. The activities were exactly as advertised on the Viator app. The Viator app itself was easy to navigate.

Well organize. Knowledgeable staff, safe driver. Viator charge only few days before the excursion. Keep me informed by multiple email.

Josue was a cheerful and knowledgeable guide who knew all the birds we saw on the Tarcoles river and gave us lots of information about Costa Rica and about the crocodiles we saw including the 90 year old crocodile. We also enjoyed the hanging walkways. Fernando worked with the police to circumvent the traffic jam from hell to get us back to the ship on time.

Absolutely amazing day with Jose and Fernado!!! Would strongly recommend to anyone visiting Costa Rica! Started out on a boat and saw so many crocodiles! Then, went for a walk among the tree tops...Absolutely beautiful, but insect repellent is a must!

This tour delivers as promised. Our tour guide Ronald explained the area very well. With the heat and humidity there were not many animals present but we did see macaws. On the river they were generous in giving us an hour roughly to see crocodiles and many types of local birds. They also took us to an exact location where a mother croc was taking care of several babies. A nice day of sight seeing.

Our guide Ralph was fantastic and very knowledgeable! While we didn’t see wildlife it was a beautiful walk through the canopy. My only complaint is that we were going at such a SLOW pace. We could have seen more walking a little faster. Enjoyed boat ride on water with a variety of birds, and of course crocodiles! Guide knew where nests and huge crocs were.

Tour was even better than described. Our tour guide was very knowledgable about all things Costa Rica-especially the wildlife! He could answer any question you had along the way. Highly recommended!

Ronald was an excellent guide and host. We saw many animals. We walked the suspended bridges and rode a crocodile boat.

Very enjoyable trip. Great walk through the rainforest - we were not lucky enough to spot any wildlife with the exception of a very small frog lol but the bridges are an experience. Great to see the crocs on the river - plenty of birds can be seen too. Good shopping stop. The guide Ronald did a great job of looking after the group.
