Imagine going back in time and canoeing to meet a real family living on a river island, a natural paradise just 40 minutes away from Puerto Viejo, undeveloped and pristine.

Dennis will hand-paddle his large canoe and take you on a beautiful wildlife sightseeing journey close to the Caribbean Sea and upstream to his home, tucked in the middle of a hidden island gem. You will meet his wife, Carol, and, when not at school, their two lovely children. I am sure this will be your most delicious lunch in Costa Rica.

This tour is designed for those who love nature and good-hearted people. It does not belong to any company, and despite their very limited English, I am sure your heart will feel at home. All proceeds go directly to Dennis and his family.

    No other tour offers canoeing, wildlife spotting, and a family experience all in one. You’ll begin with a canoe adventure, spotting birds, crocodiles, and monkeys, and finish with a visit to the Dennis family, followed by lunch. This is a social and ecological project with nature and people at its core. You’ll experience a tour that is completely unique, authentic, and most importantly gives back.
