Top Central Pacific Half-day Tours

"Seeing the multitude of Gods creatures and plant life. It was like the Garden of Eden or as close to it as i can imagin. The first sloth i ever saw live. The beautiful white sandy beach was an extra treat. Being informed with many details by our guide was worth more than the cost."

"It was definitely a memorable tour because normally you wouldn’t explore the forest at night. With our guide, we saw many different types of frogs and toads, insects, snakes, and plants. The dinner at the end was also delicious. I highly recommend this tour!"

"This was such a lovely and relaxing experience while staying in Manuel Antonio. I ended up being the only person on my tour (unexpected but can’t complain!), which made the experience feel all the more authentic riding through Randall’s family ranch his grandfather built. Very serene and it was interesting to learn about the ranch and surrounding flora & fauna. I’m generally comfortable on a horse so wasn’t sure what to expect (sometimes I feel like horseback tours can be a little gimmicky), but this felt perfect for all different skill levels and was a great way to spend the morning taking in the countryside."

"Great guide, Andres was very informative fun he found all kinds of animals and I told him I wanted to see a sloth he found 5. Would definitely recommend, Awesome"

"We ATV a lot while on vacation and this was by far the best ATV tour we have experienced. The views were absolutely "amazing"."

"Fun crew. Delicious lunch (dorado and vegetable skewers, pasta salad and fruit). Lots of dolphins. Slide and jumping off shaded top level fun! Great transportation to and from marina"

"Great tour! Great guides. The Sloths are amazing. We saw one through a telescope way up on a very tall tree. As well, I saw an army of aunts taking leaves along a path... Monkeys, birds, a beautiful beach - this tour offers a great way to see the park."

"Beautiful park with many hanging bridges and wildlife. We were the only ones on the tour and our guide Luis made it an amazing experience. He was super knowledgeable of the animals and plants, explained a lot of local customs/history, and was patient in helping us take tons of photos. The dip in the waterfall at the end was refreshing after hiking. It took us about 1.5hrs including pictures and was not very strenuous for moderately fit people. Lunch was great, a plate of local fare with juice, and right on time after we got back to the entrance. It was a quick and comfortable ride from Manuel Antonio area with on time pick up and drop off. Thanks again, would recommend this tour and park to anyone visiting the area"

"Despite the rain at the beginning, the guides were awesome and we spotted many animals. Thanks for this amazing trip"

"The kids loved the monkey drop and my fiancé and I liked the waterfall rappelling the most. Both activities were new to us yet so much fun. All the guides were great and made sure we were safe but also had a little fun. They were very nice and super entertaining. This was our favorite tour on our vacation. Kudos to our guides Chino, Alex, Ken and of course the awesome photographer Elian!"

"A very good tour. The guide was friendly. The only bad thing was that the guide was quite a lot on his phone, texting and making phone calls. Also he spoke a lot in spanish, even though we did not understand"

"Awesome experience. Pekto our tour guide helps our tour safe & fun. Kids love the falls, atv riding & food."

"Our group enjoyed the kayaking. Roy was knowledgeable and provided history on the area. We saw many animals: monkeys, bats, lizards and an iguana. The kayaking was easy except for the end when you go against the current. The dinner was a bonus and very good. We had a good time."

"I had so much fun I was actually so terrified I don't like heights but my tour guides, Luis, Jorge and Jonathan made my day. There were reassuring me that I would be fine and they made jokes to keep my mind off of it I defiantly would recommend this tour."

"Shaggy was an amazing guide, will definitely come visit with him when we come back!-Benjamin Trukman"

"Amazing tour with incredible wildlife we would never have spotted on our own. Very knowledgeable guide - Felix was terrific."

"The boat ride with the views was amazing, the crew was very friendly, great energy and had a great time with them. The food was delicious! Highly recommend this tour."

"We had a really enjoyable morning with Luis Roberto as our guide. He was so friendly and knowledgeable. We would have missed most of the animals we saw without Luis spotting them for us. He also took some brilliant pictures for us. We were the only family on the tour, so we had a private tour for a good price. I would definitely recommend."

"This was my favorite part of our trip to Costa Rica, we saw dolphins on the boat and saw so many different fish when we were snorkeling, the water side was fast and the jump off the boat is higher then you think, the staff were great and super friendly!"

"We had an amazing time. The crew made us feel extremely comfortable and taken care of! The drinks and the food were delicious, the view was incredible and we even saw a group of dolfins swimming around the ship. I can strongly recommend this to every one. It was defenitely more than worth the money."

"We were on a cruise and booked this tour independently of the ship. We were able to get picked up at the dock and they were very accommodating. The tour had only 6 people and two very informative local guides who spoke English well and knew a lot about the mangrove vegetation and animals. We spent over 2 hours going leisurely through the mangroves and saw many monkeys, birds, iguanas, snakes and a small crocodile. Paddling was very easy and we were able to go into some of the smaller channels which the boat tours could not get to and we could go slower and get closer to the animals. The guides were great about finding the animals and giving informative details on them. At the end of the tour we stopped back at the tour office where they served a local lunch of rice beans and chicken. Overall it was a very enjoyable experience. Time on the bus only about 15-20 minutes each way. At our request, they dropped us off back in downtown Quepos where we could walk back to the ship. Use plenty of sunscreen, where a hat and while the bugs didn't seem bad, apply bug spray also. This"

"Great trip to private beach. Crew was fun and professional. Lunch was yummy. The whole family had fun on this relaxing day trip."
