Traveler Comments
Crowded at first but evened out and our guide was great. Very laid back tour but saw some animals we hadn't seen yet, especially the monkeys.
Our tour guide Juan was very knowledgeable and showed us some amazing things we would have never seen on our own. It was a good tour!
For a group tour, this is a good one and they are efficient with good guides. Manuel Antonio is a bit nuts, with tons of groups starting out at the same time. it's crowded. once the tour ended at Manuel Antonio beach, it was very worth it to walk the cathedral trail and to spend some time on the beaches
