We took a 2-hour tour of Toucan Ranch and were so impressed, very knowledgeable and passionate tour guide, cutest animals ever, loved the sloths and their "nursery up thru college" training. I would love to go back to volunteer and stay in their guest house. They are doing very important work there, and it was a great way to see nature up close. Much better setting than a zoo -- for both animals and people!

Reviewed By E8642TXthomass

This was the most amazing experience of bird watching I have seen. It is set up with platforms at the top of a hill next to a valley so that you are at canopy height where the birds hang out. We saw many birds up close and then took a short hike on a trail in the valley where we saw frogs, lizards, and butterflies. Dave Jr. was our guide and was great explaining everything we saw. I would most highly recommend stopping at Dave and Dave's for a couple hours. It will be well worth it.

The reserve is fantastic with lots of beautiful trails, the famous suspension bridge over the Siripiqui River and lots of animal sightings. We saw sloths, bullet ants, leaf cutter ants, lots of hummingbirds and other birds, lizards and iguanas. We heard monkeys and toucans as well. The chocolate lour they offer is really special. Lourdes did a great job of walking us through the world of chocolate from its history through to present day, and the process of turning cacao into chocolate. The groups are small and everyone is encouraged to taste each phase of the process. Educational, fun AND delicious! (Sidenote: just a few miles away is another really neat place: an leaf-cutter ant farm that is also really interesting for people of all ages.)
