The mangrove forest is one of the most vital and astounding ecosystems in the world.

Covering thousands of acres of protected forest, this amazing biodiversity is home to a large number of birds, reptiles, mammals and insects.

So. Much. Fun!!

Fabulous experience, could not be happier! Our guide was Nazareth (Naza?), she was terrific, so knowledgeable and friendly. I chose this company specifically because they do not feed the monkeys, like others do to lure them to the boats. No need to feed them, they're everywhere, you will see them! We were able to see a Jesus lizard run across the water, found a tiny hummingbird nest, saw all kinds of reptiles, and spotted a sloth too. The lunch was SO good. I think this tour company is underrated. We had a great time, and have referred many others to them already. Thank you for helping us make precious memories!
Great animal spoting experience and nice boat tour

Our guide, Michelle, made our experience were really great. She and the boat driver let us spot a great número of animals, most of them amazing ones. We were able to see sloths, snakes, crocodiles, birds, monkeys among others.
Something you can’t do or see every day

We spent two hours touring through the mangrove with Royvin Arce who was our guide, and Jan, who was our boat driver. Roy was very Knowledgeable about many of the spices and vegetation in the mangrove and we spotted several iguanas lizards monkeys reptiles and cool birds. The boat tour itself was relaxing and felt safe and Jan navigated our 3 hour tour through the swamp high tide like a captain at sea. My wife and 2 children (22 and 15) had a great time because it’s not something we get to do or we get to see every day, My son even got to play with a snake courtesy of Roy! The complementary lunch afterwards was actually tasty and filling.
Amazing boat tour

Would definitely recommend this tour. Eduardo, our tour guide and Jeff, the boat driver made the trip very enjoyable. We were able to see many of the Costa Rican animals throughout the boat ride and enjoyed a great lunch after. If you are visiting Costa Rica and looking for a fun boat tour this is the place to go!
Reasonably good!

Could have been better!
The boat tour was just 1.5hrs which was initially thought to be longer. This was followed by a lunch. We were picked up promptly from the hotel. Our guide was excellent. Due to lower water levels, we had to return prematurely. Overall it was a nice and new experience. Got to see snakes, monkeys, lizards and birds.
