If I could give more stars, I would! Jason was AMAZING! Do yourself a favor a book this guide. Without Jason, we would have walked right past everything. We saw monkeys, a sloth, numerous types of lizards, bats, a venomous snake, etc! We did the 10:30 tour. Wonderful experience!!

Tour guide Eiderson was amazing. Shows us lots of animals i would not have seen otherwise. Super nice and informative....would recommend him in a heartbeat. The park itself was a bit crowded but our tour guide did a good job of getting us through as a group and making sure we enjoyed it. The beach at the end is beautiful but many rocks in the water that cant be seen made it difficult to enjoy.....came out bleeding from being smashed on the boulders underneath. As warm and beautiful the water was, I got out because it was hard to enjoy.

Our guide JASON was there 10 minutes before our tour began and he met us near the Chalo parking lot, to give us the rundown of what to expect and to go over the park rules. Right from the start you could tell that he was passionate about what he does because he was just as excited and happy as we were to be on the tour. We began our tour with a little history lesson about the Costarican Republic. He taught us a few words like Puravida and Tuanis ( too nice). We saw different wildlife along the way. Jason was knowledgeable, patient and funny. He made the tour cool. Some of the species we saw were two ‘Fer-de-Lance’ snakes, Jesus Christ lizard( common basilisk), Masked tree frog, Toucanets, Leaf nose bats, howler and capuchin monkeys, SLOTHS, brown tree snake, crowned wood nymph, giant red winged grasshopper, green anole lizard. Best walking tour 100% lasting almost 3 hours. Totally worth the price and JASON gave us all the pictures and videos for free. Thank you Jason. PURA VIDA.

Jeremias war ein toller Guide und hat viel entdeckt und erklärt. Die Bilder und Videos, die er mit seinem Fernrohr gemacht hat, sind super geworden. Es ist erstaunlich, was die gut miteinander vernetzen Guides alles sehen. Vieles hätte ich niemals alleine entdeckt.
