Enjoyable family adventure. - We had a great trip with a friendly, excellent guide who was skilled at spotting wildlife and birds. He also was very knowledgeable about them and we learned a lot. We had a separate raft for our family of six and the raft trip lasted about an hour and a half. There is a long bus trip to and from the river.

Great trip - We had a lovely tour. Bryan did his best to make sure that we all had a great experience. He is so full of energy and passion for his job and his beautiful country. We saw lots of birds, bats, monkeys and reptiles. We always felt safe. And Gretal was a great driver!

Brian is awesome! Take this excursion… without reservation! - Brian was an excellent guide. He loved sharing his knowledge with us and very receptive to questions. We saw several troops of howler monkeys, several birds, lots of bats AND a cayman snatch a frog off the bank! Brian said that was a National Geographic moment! Would definitely recommend!

We ended up scheduling... - We ended up scheduling incorrectly but the tour accommodated us and rescheduled result with a private tour! We say monkeys, birds, and iguanas. Our guide was kind and informative. This was easy with little walking for our kids (ages 5 and 7).

Outstanding! - My husband and I went on the Twilight Dinghy Tour; no mean feat as a wheelchair user! Our guide Bela and driver Stefan made everything go smoothly and safely. I was so thrilled to be able to go on the water. Bela was kind, knowledgeable and obviously very proud of his heritage. He took time to answer our questions and made sure we didn't miss a thing. A truly memorable trip! Booked as part of a package through Loren at Adventure Inn, San Jose

Serene River Float and a Rare Owl Spotting - My family and I had such a wonderful time! Our guide was Kay and he was full of energy and laughs and good info. We loved watching sunset turn to night as we drifted on the river in our raft. We saw a variety of birds, a lot of howler monkeys, bats hunting bugs, and even a rarely spotted owl! We were not lucky enough to see caiman or crocodiles, so next time we will try a daytime tour in case we might spot some sunning themselves. The snacks after boating were really delicious and we got to share them in such a sweet, welcoming place. We definitely recommend this tour, just make sure you can handle some bugs because once the sun went down, they came out. Thankfully, at this time of season we went, they were not biting kinds at least.

Twilight Float Tour - We had an amazing experience with our guide Bryan. He showed us sloths, howler monkeys, capuchin monkeys, kingfishers, anhingas, tiger herons, night herons, bats and iguanas among several other species of wildlife. We enjoyed fresh tropical fruit juice and baked desserts to close the tour. The guides were very friendly and accommodating. Highly recommended!

Wonderful experience! - We had a wonderful experience. The only reason I give it 4 stars is because it started raining 10 minutes into our trip. Other than that it was fantastic. Bela and Edward were very nice and helpful.
