Join us to explore Manuel Antonio National Park, considered by thousands of travelers the right place to easily observe wild monkeys, sloths, blue butterflies, toucans, and much more in Costa Rica. Our company philosophy it's to professionally develop informative, fun, and educational experiences for all visitors despite your age, physical mobility, academic position, and nationality.
We guaranteed that by reducing our tour groups size to 8-10 people max (group tour), 4-6 people max (semi-private tour), or just your own party (Fully Private tour)
As you make your way through a well-preserved park, you will find yourself next to all different species of mammals, tropical birds, and a large variety of exuberant tropical flora. We invite you to ask any questions you may have throughout the activity to enrich and better educate your experience.
Note: We are open to customizing your tours for any specific animal search, theme, or navigating in any direction requested by our visitors.
What's Included
Meeting and pickup
We suggest driving your own vehicle instead of using your hotel or resort's shuttle service. It's much easier and more convenient for both parties. We'll reserve a paid spot for you at the Chalo Parking lot, allowing you to stay longer on the beach, have lunch or souvenir shopping.
What to expect
As mentioned above, we will do the tour in the opposite direction (anti-clockwise) of the standard operators and guides, the idea is to walk with less people and noise, focus on what the tour is about, observe the local wildlife, learn about iconic tropical species and, if possible, take a great photo or video.
The most common species are sloths (both species), monkeys, bats, agoutis, tree frogs, toucans, and even snakes.
