Hi, I’m Isaac Taylor — a certified bilingual naturalist guide with deep Costa Rican roots and over a decade of experience leading immersive, custom tours. Originally from San José, I left a corporate career 10 years ago to follow my passion for nature, wildlife, and sharing Costa Rica’s beauty with travelers. I specialize in wildlife-focused and cultural tours across Costa Rica, with expertise in destinations such as Tortuguero (where I’m a certified turtle nesting guide), Arenal, Manuel Antonio, and Cahuita. Guests enjoy educational, flexible experiences that blend history, culture, nature, and adventure — all tailored to their interests. In addition, I lead San José city tours that bring the capital’s rich history, vibrant culture, and local life to light. As a licensed tourism driver (Type C2), I provide safe, comfortable transportation in a fully insured, A/C microbus with all permits up to date. My goal is to create meaningful connections and help you discover the real Costa Rica — from hidden forest trails and wildlife encounters to authentic city experiences and local flavors. Let’s explore Costa Rica together — with knowledge, heart, and a personal touch!

Private Costa Rica cruise tour with wildlife, cacao tasting, Cahuita Wildlife Lodge, and Caribbean culture in Cahuita Village
Overview of your Limon tour
Discover Costa Rica’s South Caribbean on a private experience combining wildlife, culture, and chocolate. Begin with a guided hike in the Puerto Vargas Sector of Cahuita National Park, where you may spot monkeys, sloths, iguanas, and colorful tropical birds along scenic rainforest and coastal trails. Continue to Cahuita Wildlife Lodge, the property I personally manage, where I work together with the owner to offer an authentic chocolate experience. He is an expert chocolatier and one of the local founders of the Cahuita community. Learn about the cacao process from bean to chocolate and enjoy tastings of cacao, cacao nibs, and handmade chocolate. Finish with a visit to Cahuita Village, where you may explore and optionally enjoy Caribbean lunch, tropical fruits, snacks, and drinks. Transportation and guiding are included. Park entrance, chocolate workshop, food, snacks, drinks, and optional lunch are paid separately.
