Traveller reviews in Costa Rica
Highly recommend Henry.. the tour of the Carara national park was fun, thorough and informative, the guide through the countryside was great, and we really enjoyed the lunch spot he chose in the mountains. The tour was a happy immersion into the local culture. Henry showed and told us all sorts of interesting things along the way. He was courteous, entertaining, and a made the experience a pleasure for the whole family.

This tour was one of the highlights of our Costa Rica trip. We had never done a night hike, and the experience was completely different than the day hikes we are use to doing. Seeing nocturnal animals active in their habitat was very cool, especially with our guide, Elier, who patiently searched for the animals and took the time to share his knowledge. It was a great tour enjoyed by the entire family.
