Efrain’s Night Tour is a MUST DO and a top highlight of our time in Costa Rica. Efrain (our Guide and Owner), was by far the most talented at spotting and describing the local wildlife and we will never forget this experience. During our time we observed frogs, spiders, snakes, sloths, scorpions and other night creatures. Efrain is so passionate and has deep family ties to the preservation and conservation of the Manuel Antonio Park. The night tour was so good, we had to use Efrain again for the Manuel Antonio Walking Tour the very next day! He also has a knack for getting some amazing pictures through his telescope with your phone for some amazing memories!

Highly recommend! This was one of the best parts of our trip. The views were stunning. The guides were friendly. We enjoyed being able to go at full gallop at times. It made it more exciting than the Extreme Zipline parks we had done earlier in the day. We were treated to a bonus sugar cane tour with a hands on experience at the end.

Wow! Where to even begin?! My husband and I booked a horse riding tour with Randall and we were blown away! This was so much more than just a horse ride. The ranch is Randall’s family home where himself and his father have tons of beautiful horses and cattle. We went on an epic ride in the mountains hills rivers and open field where we could ride a little faster. Randall was soooo knowledgeable, friendly and made this the most memorable experience of my life! The views are hard to describe and you feel so connected with nature! We stopped in the jungle and went for a hike where Randall and his father showed us tons of fauna and amazing trees and animals, frogs lizards snakes etc. it was fascinating and great to hear about the wonders of CR We Also got to go swimming in a beautiful waterfall. I recommend bringing a bathing suit and water shoes/sneakers. It was so refreshing after a long hot riding morning. We had lunch at a cute restaurant with authentic CR food. I highly highly highly recommend this tour, you will not be disappointed. Thank you Randall & family for making my birthday so special!

We had a great time. Our guide Jeckel (I hope I spelled his name right), was very nice and went out of his way to point things out that we would have probably missed. I was very impressed with his command of English especially as he was self taught by using a popular free app and by practicing at work. The ATV ride was fun and the waterfall was beautiful. It had a pool at the base that would have been great to take a dip in but sadly I didn't bring my bathing suit. Worth going on.

Enjoy a full-day tour to Monteverde where the clouds meet the woods and take an exhilarating walk through the famous cloud forest on hanging bridges. Sky Walk uses trails and a series of suspension bridges for a more relaxing introduction of the flora and fauna of the forest. It allows a vision of the forest from a different perspective which starts with a hike on the ground and then taking you to explore the treetops, a hardly discovered habitat called the “canopy” with a professional guide.
