Great private tour of Manuel Antonio National Park! - Mauro was an excellent guide for our visit to Manuel Antonio National Park. He communicated with us via WhatsApp the night before so we were prepared and able to reach him if needed. He was very knowledgeable about the plants and animals and showed us lots of cool stuff including an anteater, 3-toes sloth, and brown vine snake. We recommend booking a private tour with Mauro if you’re planning on visiting the park.

Mauro made the trip an excellent one! - Mauro was a great tour guide! He was really personable and knew so much. He found things none of us would've seen on our own and took great pictures for us, on our own phones, through his scope. If you haven't been to the area before, stay alert when you get closer to the park. There are a lot of official looking folks trying to sell you tickets and parking. Mauro warned us about them so we were ready to tell them we already had what we needed when we drove in. The beach at the end of the tour was beautiful and so relaxing. 100% recommend!

My 17 yo daughter and I... - My 17 yo daughter and I loved this tour! Mop was our tour guide, and he was awesome! He had us laughing and was very knowledgeable about Manuel Antonio National Park, as he has been a tour guide there for over 20 years. It was amazing how quickly and easily he was able to spot even the tiniest creatures for us to view through his incredible lens. He took great pictures for us, which he provided at the end of the tour. We saw a couple of sloths, a howler monkey and her baby, a crab, a snake, a spider, bugs, a bird, and a frog. There's no way we would have seen any of it without Mop.

Phenomenal Tour! - HIGHLY Recommend. We booked the private tour with Mauro and it was truly everything I imagined it to be and more! Mauro was extremely knowledgeable “in his office” as he calls Manuel Antonio Park 😄. We were truly amazed at how he was able to spot the animals and show us. I told him which animals I was really excited to see and we saw all but a toucan but he offered tips so I can be on the lookout throughout the rest of my trip. The next morning he sent me a video of a toucan he spotted at the beginning of the other tour! I was so happy. Thank you again, Mauro!

Best tour guide and experience !! - Mauro is a must book! He made this a very memorable experience for my boyfriend and I. Extremely friendly, responsive, and so knowledgeable. Without him, we would have not seen any animals! He also made sure we were able to capture the best photos. Do not hesitate — book Mauro for your tour guide !

Incredibly Talented Guide! - Mauro was brilliant - one of the best at spotting hard to see wildlife. He was very knowledgeable about the floral and fauna of the park. Wildlife is always unpredictable but we saw 3 types of monkey, 2 types of sloth, and many bats, birds, bugs, and lizards. Mauro was also very understanding about changing plans.
