The experience was very special. Walking down the river in slow pace, taking time to feel the experience and enjoy the many animals active and hunting at night was great. Plenty of snakes, frogs and spiders, for which we took all the time to enjoy. The music of the night in the jungle is another this that should really impress everyone. I strongly advice to take the time for this special adventure.

David and André were fantastic guides during our stay in Drake's Bay. We did both the night walking tour and day tour in Corcovado (if only we had longer) in a small group with others. The night tour was a great introduction to creatures we would normally overlook if we didn't have a guide with us (we even saw a poison dart frog!) The day tour in Corcovado (Sirena) was the highlight and well worth the bumpy boat ride - within the first few minutes we saw a tapir, squirrel monkeys and tinamou. The rest of the tour was fabulous as we spotted many beautiful birds as well as jesus christ lizards amongst many others. I have to mention that David also went out of his way to try and return a personal item I forgot at lunch and was incredibly patient when our group was running late. I highly recommend Sukia travel and would love an opportunity to see more of Drake's Bay with them again.
7. Mermaid / San Pedrillo Overnight
Overall Ratings
4.8 based on 13 reviews
This tour is the best way to get to know Corcovado because we visit two different stations; with two different ecosystems; On the one hand Sirena that we will appreciate the fauna and the reconstruction of a forest of only 47 years that was cut down and is gradually being regenerated. On the other hand, San Pedrillo, with a totally virgin and pure primary rain forest, which saves the energy of more than 4000 years old.

I was in Costa Rica in January, now I have traveled to Colombia. I have waited several months but I cannot shake how HORRIBLE this tour was. We were supposed to have a tour bus but was instead packed into a sedan. At some point the tour guide was alluding to us going to a nicer restaurant and having us pay for his lunch because the office "did not send the money over" for the included meal. I have been on many tours before and many after but this one was easily the worst. Our tour guide was out taking pictures of his own on every site instead of actually guiding us. What took the cake was when we thought we were going to see a coffee plantation but instead he pulls over on the side of the road to a ditch to show us mounds of dirt that supposedly were growing coffee and he said he couldn't take us to an actual plantation because "The Nicaraguans are harder working and the Costa Rican youth are always on their phones now so it won't be worth it". We paid 100+ dollars EACH for a glorified taxi ride across the country. 0/10 don't recommend

This tour was an AMAZING tour for my daughter and I. We shared a boat with Divers and had the amazing Deyanira, who seems to be very skilled and native in the water. She pointed out amazing sea turtles, awesome schools of fish, coral, and we even saw an eel and (friendly) shark! So wondrous swimming in these beautiful waters, and the boat crew was great too, navigating waters with great skill and even stopping when we spotted some sea turtles coming up for air. We did a few rain forest hikes and really enjoyed all that the magical land of Costa Rica has to offer, but the magic of this special South Pacific sea can not be missed! Deyanira was amazing!
