Very enjoyable tour. - 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.

Forest, crocodiles, macaws and more! - This tour is as described, small group of 8 from cruise ship on a very comfortable van. Superb guide Ronald, very knowledgable, friendly and pay attention to our needs. Also thank you to our driver Fernando. We stop at a bridge in the morning saw many crocodiles, walk in the forest with suspended bridges, snack fruits and juice, couple of stops to see macaws in their natural habitat and finish with boat tour were we saw few crocodiles and many lovely birds. Back to the cruise terminal a little tour n the city before getting back to the ship. We strongly recommend it really worth it. Many thanks to Ronald our guide and Fernando our driver you made our day in Puntarenas, Costa Rica!

Great day in Costa Rica - We had a great day on this excursion from the cruise ship. We saw tons of wildlife! Crocodiles, turtle, many varieties of birds, two types of monkeys, iguana, a sloth, a Coati, and lots more. The bridges were fun, and it was on them where we saw some of the wildlife in the trees. It was a great day! The only recommendation I would have is to bring water with you. The tour provided one bottle, and with the temperatures I wished I had more. There were options to refill it, but having your own larger water would have been nice.

Brilliant excursion - Greenway tours were excellent. We had a brilliant guide who was very knowledgeable & helpful. Learnt so much on the walk through the rain forest . Then did the crocodile safari which was amazing & staff ensured we got great views of the crocs as well as many of the numerous wildlife in the area. Highly recommend this company. Many thanks to our wonderful guide & his driver. A very informative trip which we will remember for a long time to come.

Slow stroll above rain forest - 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.

Can be better - Everything went well. I suggest for future: skip El Jarden and add the lunch at the resort (after the walking through the bridge) then it will be prefect!

Strenuous - It was a wonderful tour, but I was not aware how strenuous the rainforest hike was. It wasn’t very long, 1 1/2 miles. However lots of stone steps going up and down. They were uneven, many broken. Some steps were quite tall. It was very hot and humid, mid April. The jungle was beautiful; our guide pleasant and knowledgeable. I highly recommend it IF you are able to walk up and down tall, uneven steps in high heat and humidity.
