This is the most fun tour for the kids - they get to see so many different frogs and insects. Even ants fascinate them given the unique time/set-up (twilight/flashlight) of this tour.

Awesome experience, very cool tour, night tour is a MUST!... unless you're scared of snakes or spiders! Our guide was very smart, honest, and kept us safe and got us close to many frogs. We wouldn't have known to look for these things if we had gone by ourselves.

My favourite part of Arenal is how passionate every person seems to be about their chosen field. Our guide for this was Gerald, who clearly loves frogs and the other night time creatures that he helped us look for. A great little tour, not too intense and very fun to do in the dark. Gerald remembered that I wanted to see a glass frog, and was just as excited to tell me he'd spotted one as I was to get to see it. He also took some great pictures for us.

It was so convenient having the night tour right on the grounds of where we were staying. Our guide was extremely enthusiastic and knowledgeable. He helped us take photos of the frogs we found. The photos are absolutely stunning!
