    We had an amazing tour with our guide in Corcovado. We saw a lot of wildlife (tapir, birds, snakes, crocodiles, monkeys…). Our guide took the time to explain everything and answer our questions. The tour gives enough time to enjoy the park as we leave at 5:30am by boat and then only return around 1:30pm. I fully recommend it!

    Adventuras was walking distance from our hotel. A wonderful restaurant is next to it. The beach was about 100 yds from Adventuras storefront. The guide explained everything to everyone - everywhere we went. No question went unanswered.

    It was a really nice tour. The bioluminescence was neat, but not the real highlight for me. We started off paddling near the shore and stopped near the mangroves. We saw a lot of wildlife and jumping fish. As the sun started to set, we headed for the shore the watch the sunset. As we ate pineapple, watermelon, and coconut, we started to see the bioluminescence in the waves.

    We embarked from that beach as darkness fell. Our paddles swirled with bioluminescence as we gathered in a group. It was my first time kayaking in near total darkness and it was exhilarating. I hope I will remember that feeling for the rest of my life.

    It was fantastic! Our tour guide Erik showed us so many wonderful animals like Tapirs, snakes, crocodiles, sloths, all four kind of Monkeys, wild pigs and of course a big number of birds. Erik saw a lot of animals we would have missed and explained us a lot.
    The night in the ranger station was a really good experience. Food and all was very good. Thank you so much, we will never forget this!

    I really like night hikes so I knew this was my cuppa tea. Maybe it’s because I am British. I don’t know, but I really like to feel like an explorer off into the unknown. This was the perfect night to do it. It had been raining steadily all afternoon and continued into the evening so I wasn’t worried about mosquitoes, they hate to fly in the rain apparently. Ayder my guide met me promptly in front of the restaurant that served excellent food by the way! And off we went, I followed him in my four wheel drive and after a relatively short drive out of town up some dirt roads we arrived at our starting point. Like I said it had been raining for a while and it was fun to slosh across a creek to get started. The forest was dense but had decent paths and before you knew it Ayder was finding all manner of cool insects. I was hopeless finding anything Ayder was a magnet. The diversity of spiders, insects I can’t name and, all manner of frogs and lizards was astounding. Ayder really knows his stuff and was a considerate guide never felt rushed it was a blast!

    This was a very enjoyable tour: perfect length 4 hrs, beautiful scenery of the Golfo Dulce, and so many dolphins bouncing joyfully around us. David the tour guide was very knowledgeable and loved sharing his knowledge and experience with us.
    We saw no whales, this is not their season, however the dolphins more than made up for them. Snorkeling spot was in a beautiful bay with crystal clear waters. Delicious Costa Rican fresh fruit the crew provided for us hit the spot. Just perfect!

    It was a magnificent experience, Erick is very attentive and helpful. I support us in every way possible. He also showed us special places to see the famous tapir that you can only see if you spend a night there at least. If I went back to Corcovado I definitely would with Erick again.

    We just returned from a wonderful day spent in Corcovado National Park in Costa Rica. The tour was provided by Golfo Dulce Tour Operator. Our VRBO host connected us to Rommel when we arrived at the house outside of Puerto Jimenez. We were having trouble confirming our plans with two companies recommended in our travel guide. Rommel spoke with me at length on the phone describing the different tour options. We had to have our tour within two days as our time was short. That was no problem. Rommel booked our tour and provided excellent communications with all the arrangements. We felt a little vulnerable not going with the recommended tours but ended up being very satisfied. Our tour guide, Mel, was excellent. He communicated with precision in English, offered informative background on all the flora and fauna we discovered, demonstrating expertise in the job he is passionate about. Mel was incredible at finding wildlife, from rare birds to the larger mammals. He took the time to set up his viewing telescope for us to get close-up to the animal, and used it to take many stunning pictures for us on our phones. Some of our encounters did not require magnification. Mel knew where to look to get us close. This was a once in a lifetime opportunity for our family and we are so pleased with our experience. I don’t usually write reviews but I wanted to share this information so others would have more choice when booking tours here.

    Corcovado is a must! This company handles everything for you and is very communicative. We saw tons of animals and skipped the crowds of other national parks in Costa Rica. They kept us safe and the guides are hilarious. They even helped take pics of the animals on their telescopes. You can tell everyone loves what they do. Thanks for a memorable trip!

    We did a day trip with Jairo to Sirena station and it was a fantastic experience. He is for sure one of the most knowledgeable guides in Corcovado and he has an obvious passion for the jungle and the animals. I could not believe how many animals he spotted that I would have never noticed, and he brought a telescope so that everyone can take turns looking. I recommend bringing your own binoculars as well. We saw a baby sloth, a sleeping tapir, a few coatis, a baby crocodile, a baby caiman, agutis, basilisk, and all four kinds of monkeys.

    We walked around from around 8-11am, following Jairo as he scouted for creatures. It was not a strenuous walk at all since it was flat and we stopped so many times. Probably 3-4 miles overall. It’s muddy but we didn’t have to walk through any water. DEFINITELY wear closed toed shoes!!! I made the mistake of wearing Chacos at first, and got some painful ant bites, so I changed into sneakers. There were some mosquitos but they weren’t too bad. It was constantly misting but the forest canopy provides a lot of cover. We felt very damp in general especially from the boat ride over.

    The boat ride from puerto Jimenez to sirena was a little rough, but I think we had also more weather than usual as it was a bit windy. We got completely drenched on the boat from a downpour so wear your raincoat for the ride. On the way back we saw dolphins and a yellow-bellied sea snake (!!).

    In the morning when you get to sirena, you have a wet exit off the boat, and then there’s a station where they check your backpacks to make sure you don’t have any. there are bathrooms with running water right there, and places to rinse your sandy feet.

    We ended the hike at sirena station and had an hour to eat lunch and relax. The station was really pretty, and the bathrooms were remarkably nice. The food was great - rice, beans, veggies, meat, Mac salad. I’m a vegetarian so instead of meat they gave me a stuffed roasted tomato. There’s a gift shop that sells cookies and coffee - the coffee was very good!

    All in all, loved this tour and had an epic day in Corcovado!
