One of a kind experience

We had an awesome trip. While waiting, we spotted a white faced monkey across the parking lot. Our guide Kenneth and our captain were pointing out impossible to see wildlife. We saw a yellow boa within 1 minute of leaving the dock. They found some every day creatures like toads and frogs, spiders and birds… We were inches away from a resting hummingbird, a green heron. Through their persistence and amazing eyes, we finally found a sloth…wait….a baby sloth crawling down the tree to its mother…two sloths. Truly beautiful sight at night. We finished the night coming within a few feet of a baby crocodile. Thunder and lightening in the background made this night tour memorable for sure!

Great experience

Fantastic experience with Kenneth. He made sure we could get great photos. We had a small group, saw a lot of animals, and learned a lot. Seemed safe/fun for older kids, too.
