Christopher· May 25th, 2024Alex was a great tour guide and we had a blast! The bus and boat that we were taken on were both comfortable and safe. The accommodations were as described. As long as it cools down enough at night, with a rainstorm for example, it’s comfortable enough to sleep without AC. The amenities on the lodge were fantastic, clean, and well maintained. The beach was stunning and the tours provided were really incredible and intimate. Highly would recommend this tour!Show more

- OLOliver· August 21st, 2023Excellent organisation. We had 2 great days in Tortuguero. I didn’t like that they tried iteratively to sell additional optional tours. The boat tour included is very interesting.

- KKKarl-Heinz· February 28th, 2023Automatic translation available in English. View in EnglishExcept for two missing codes for the morning tour of the canals and the Hill walk, everything was good. Stress was because the previously included description for the 3 days and two nights was not correct. I had to check several times at the reception and with the guide and even phone with the tour operator. The next morning everything was both clear and included and in the evening two drinks as an apology with it Nevertheless, the tour was very good. The lodge and the food are good. The guide for the canal tour at 8:30, Cito, was excellent and showed us lots of wildlife and great scenery. Also the hill walk with Cito was great !!! All in all epmommendableShow moreTrip date: February 2023
