Hello, dear (amigos) friends, I am here to help you, to discover my country, so you can see it through local eyes. You can enjoy more, since you will be less worried, about the unknown that most people suffer while traveling, and more excited about the upcoming events along the day's tour! I have been experiencing Costa Rica as a professional local facilitator for more than ten years, so with me as your local guide there will be no worries about: car condition, driving, spotting wildlife, bird watching, finding local tours, knowing where to find grocery stores or drug stores, finding the nicest roads to travel, doing research on local history, interpreting the geography and weather conditions, facing dangerous situations, having a first aid kit and medical assistance if needed, getting on time to all the attractions and activities. Some of our activities may include: wildlife watching, interpretation of natural trails in national parks; visiting important local people who are involved in the preservation of our cultural heritage; visiting landmarks; photography sessions; donating different goods to local kids and schools; boat trips to islands in the Nicoya Gulf; visiting organic farms and rural projects, swimming in the Pacific ocean; alcohol-free picnics; soft walks of no more than two miles long through the tropical cloud forest; hiring adventure tours as rock climbing, canopy, horseback riding, aerial tram, river floating, zip lining, white water rafting, and much much more. . .

It was a great day. Henry, our tour guide was very personable and has an amazing knowledge of Guanacaste... the rainforest, animals, history and culture. We have wonderful pictures. His brother drives so Henry is able to locate many birds and animals and pay attention to his clients. We also had a iwonderful tour of a family owned Cacao farm and learned about the process of making chocolate which was very interesting. He will customize your tour to fit your interests.
Our group of 9 was thoroughly impressed with Henry and his vast knowledge of all things CR. During the drive, walks, tours etc he was always keeping his eagle eye out for wildlife. He was able to spot animals that we would never have seen. A truly wonderful day!
LOVED this tour!!! It was the highlight of our visit to Costa Rica. Henry is AMAZING! He really cares about showing visitors the world that he loves and it shows. 5 stars is the limit on this site - but this tour was an 11! Muchas Gracias Henry - Pura Vida!
Henry is so knowledgeable and an exceptional guide! He spotted animals we never would have seen! He has deep expertise in the ecology of the area and clear passion for sharing it with tourists. I recommend him very highly!
My husband and I were so excited to visit Costa Rica and hike and see the animals, the rain forest and the cloud forest. We were very fortunate to have booked Henry for 3 tours because he showed us what a beautiful country Costa Rica is! We truly saw all that we had read about that not everyone has the good fortune to see and that was mostly due to Henry’s expertise and his true desire to offer the best experience possible. Henry certainly deserves all of the 5 star ratings he has been given!
Henry worked with me and my group of 16 to arrange a unique wildlife-centric tour of the Tenorio area. In my group, I had people of different physical abilities. We were interested in Sloth (in the wild) and as many different birds as could be found. Henry met us at our location in Tamarindo and accompanied our multiple cars on a day-long (we left at 5:30AM and didn't get back until almost 8PM) trip to the Tenorio region. Henry was enthusiastic throughout the day, literally leaping from the car to set up his vision scope when he found things of interest. He worked with the birders in our group closely to keep them happy. Nothing but positive comments about Henry. Highly recommended
Location Options: Tenorio Volcano National Park/Bijagua/Sloth Watching Rincon de la Vieja Volcano/Hot Springs/Leona Waterfalls/Zipline/Tubing Suggested starting time: 6:30 am Arrive at destination: 8:30 am Wildlife watching walking tour: 2 hours Lunch: 1 hour Afternoon wildlife walking tour: 1 to 2 hours Back at Hotel/other: 4:30 pm The idea is to maximize the time! so my tours will be planned according to customers' needs, the starting time can change, but sometimes some the attractions will close operations at a certain time, so everything really depends on adapting our itinerary based on the customer availability!! We will build the actual itinerary together! for your best interest. . .
