Hi! This is Diego. I’m a tour guide by passion and a nature nerd by choice. I love telling real stories — not the kind you find on Wikipedia — about Costa Rica’s rich history, glowing frogs, snakes with attitude, and birds that look like they flew in from a fantasy film. If it walks, slithers, or flies, I’ve probably photographed it. I mix my love for wildlife, herpetofauna, and photography to turn every tour into a fun class, a nature documentary, and a wild adventure all in one. Want to see a glass frog or learn why snakes aren’t the villains? Come along — I’ll show you, and we’ll have a blast doing it.

The journey takes you through charming rural landscapes, followed by a traditional local lunch. You’ll also visit a native artisan to see the centuries-old pottery-making process. All along, your expert guide will share insights and capture photographs so you can fully immerse yourself in the experience.
