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!!
★★★★★
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.

★★★★★
Jason birding tour: 10/10. We had an AMAZING day with Jason exploring Corcovado NP and several other spots nearby. I have done a few birding specific tours: Jason is the best and funniest guide I have ever had the privilege of joining. We got some amazing pics and videos through the scope. He was absolutely first class: extremely knowledgeable on the birds and excellent at spotting, uber friendly and charismatic and a wonderful host (kept us well fed and watered etc). Wonderful day. Book a tour: you won’t regret it.
