Excellent job - Danny did a great job and was excellent in spotting a variety of species in the rain forest. I would hire him again in an instant.

A must see! - Th pearl is beautiful!! Mop was an awesome tour guide and found so many fun things for us to see. We saw Howler and Whiteface monkeys, sloths, frogs and lizards, lots of different birds and bats and the coolest looking crabs. He pointed out the different plants, trees and insects too, he is very knowledgeable about all of it. He took photos with his phone through the telescope so we got great pictures of what we saw without a big hold up of everyone trying to get their own, then he just airdropped them to us at the end. The tour ended and the beautiful beach where we stayed and swam and did a little more walking around the park. Highly recommend this tour!!

Great tour guide - What an incredible day we had exploring Manuel Antonio National Park! We were so fortunate to have Jason as our guide—he was not only warm and engaging but also incredibly knowledgeable. We learned so much about the Costa Rican rainforests and the fascinating wildlife that call them home. I would absolutely book through Viator again and make sure to request Jason for our next visit to Manuel Antonio. He was exceptional!

Exciting adventure in Manuel Antonio - David was an amazing tour guide. He was highly knowledgeable and we saw so many animals! He showed us things we wouldn’t have seen without his expertise. We saw bats, birds that hunt at night, howler monkeys, hornets, sloths, iguanas and the walking stick insect. It was a really great experience and I recommend it if you are in the area!

Worth every penny - Fantastic experience with fantastic guide! Our guide, Jason, was amazing: professional, knowledgeable, patient, and a natural born comedian. We saw all kinds of lizards, land crabs, hummingbirds, bats, monkeys, and sloths. Jason sent us all the photos and videos he captured. Loved our time. Bring your bathing suits because the way back to the park entrance post tour travels along the coast. Plenty of wonderful beach to enjoy. There is also a place to eat and drink in the park at the tour’s end. Thanks Wakoo Tours and thanks Jason! Well done!

Visiting Manuel Antonio with Uncle Jason - We had an absolute blast doing our guided tour with Jason. He pointed out numerous plants and wildlife that we would have never found (with our own eyes). He was incredibly knowledgeable and also had a great sense of humor. The visit to the park would have been beautiful on our own but having a guide was THE way to experience all it has to offer. Jason also had an attachment for his phone that made capturing photos/videos of wildlife through the viewing scope possible. He took some incredible shots that he then airdropped to us at the end of the tour. 10/10 recommend Uncle Jason to anyone considering visiting Manuel Antonio!

If you like the herd approach to jungle tours, then this is for you. - WAY too crowded, poorly run. Yes, we did see animals along with about 100 other people at any given spot. The number of people they let in ruins the experience. We have kids with us so had to work around school holidays. Just don't come during peak season.
