We saw four slothes in the wild, including a little baby with its mum. This was apparently quite rare. Our tour guide also got very excited when we saw a certain frog, which was very charming!

Had an amazing time on this tour with Andrew! We saw a bunch of wildlife including snakes, sloths, and a lot of cool insects. Definitely would recommend if you are in Tortuguero!

Great guide who made many efforts to show us many local animals of which he was very knowledgeable. Unfortunately, the whole evening it was heavy raining, so we went completely wet and could not enjoy as much.
Response from Host, Jul 2023
Hello Simona, thanks a lot for sharing your experience, it is great to heard that our guide was good, unfortunately we can not change the weather specially because we life in the rain forest, I hope one of the starts were not given to this tour because of the rain, if you could tell us what was missing to improve the service we will be more than glad to hear of you again. Thank you.

De gids was met zijn telefoon bezig in plaats van met ons als groep. Jammer van het geld en de tijd.
Response from Host, Sep 2023
Hallo Ibone en liewe publiek, ek is innig jammer vir julle slegte ervaring.
Jammer dat daar 'n gebrek aan kommunikasie was aangesien ons die situasie kon opgelos het.
Ons het jou opmerkings in ag geneem en 2 veranderinge aangebring.
1- Verandering van gids.
2- En lei die gidse op sodat hulle nie die selfoon vir persoonlike doeleindes tydens die aktiwiteit gebruik nie
Dankie vir jou tyd en kommentaar om te verbeter.

No recomiendo a nadie hacer este tour. Fue lo menos profesional que he visto en años, por lo que solo puedo calificarlo como una pérdida de tiempo y de dinero. Además, Leonardo es una persona con nulo respeto hacia los animales, a pesar de su trabajo. Tenía dos conejos metidos debajo de una caja y no tuvo ningún escrúpulo en aterrar a uno de ellos poniéndolo delante de un perrito callejero, ofreciendo así un show penoso para los turistas que pasaban por ahí en ese momento. Para rematarlo, propinó dos fuertes tortas en el morro al cachorro que nos dejaron mudos. Simplemente terrible.

Hola Ibone y estimado publico, lamento profundamente su mala experiencia.
Creo que este comentario no tiene nada que ver con la Excursion Nocturna.
He solicitado a tripadvisor su revision pues el asunto con mis mascotas esta fuera de esto
Los conejos son mascotas y no animales libres, yo los recoji porque los habian tirado a la basura,
y fue presisamente ese dia y estaba haciendo lo que podia en el momentio
además la caja que vieron fue para protegerlos de perros y fue una solución al momento
cuando gusten volver podrían comprobar que están super bien cuidados en una jaula muy cómoda, que por cierto salen a diario al monte
Hemos tomado en cuenta sus comentarios y hemos hecho cambios.
1- Mejorar las condiciones de hospedaje de los conejos .
Gracias por su tiempo y comentarios para mejorar.
Les deseo lo mejor del mundo a pesar de intentar dañar la imagen de una persona que protege los animales, se llevaron una imagen de primera impresión.

Die Tierwelt Cost Ricas ist beeindruckend. Zunächst war es schwer die Tiere zu entdecken, aber dank dem Guide bekommt man Wissen übermittelt und bekommt ein Auge für die Tiere. Wir haben ein Faultier, die besonderen Ameisen, eine grüne Schlange etc. gesehen.

Hello Daniel, thanks a lot for taking the taking the time to give us your review, I wonder why 3 starts, what was wrong? Was the guide non good or you expectation we high about the night walk? We hope you are great and wish to hear of you soon to see what we can do to improve the service.
Warm regards.

Nous avons retrouvé Andrews (eu le matin sur les canaux) et ce fut de nouveau un plaisir. Gentil, patient (enfant en bas âge) et nous à trouvé beaucoup d'espèces : grenouilles, serpent, araignée, paresseux, lézards, iguanes...
Je recommande +++
