Traveler Comments
Fantastic! Our guide, Simon, was really great.
This was another one of our favorite tours of the evening. Our tour guide was incredible too.
Even though we went while it was pouring, thundering and lightning, we still had a great time on the tour and saw sloths, a few kinds of frogs, and other cool creatures! It was a great night activity!
