Wow, honestly strop scrolling and just book with Jason or you will be disappointed. I took over 10 tours in all over Costa rica and he was by FAR our favorite of the whole trip. First getting a guide in Manuel Antonio National Park is necessary or your going to miss everything you came to costa rica for (do not try to save money and go without a guide). He points out more animals/ insects / etc in the first 10 minutes of the tour than you have probably seen in any other part of costa rica, all while being funny and super informative. He spotted everything, and literally 3 other guides 2 behind and 2 in front of us were asking for help to spot and he had to even set up the telescope for the other guide. He found a super rare poisonous snake that was impossible to see without his knowledge and the tour behind us even asked if they could look in our lens.. haha. Our whole family loved it. This was a real treat and made our last day in Costa rica so special

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!
