Jose Raul was an amazing guide through the night tour. We saw so many amazing creatures and his passion for nature and his country had a big impact on us. He was so friendly and engaging! We went on many tours during our 8 day stay, and this one was our favorite. There was no night creature, no matter how small, that Jose Raul didn't see with his trained eye. He also was a fountain of knowledge about the plants and trees in the forest. The best part was getting to finally experience the pura vida vibe of Costa Rica through Jose Raul's serene and joyous personality. Thank you for a most wonderful tour!

Bernardo was an amazing and well versed guide. My husband and I went on a damp Wednesday night and it was our first tour in La Fortuna and was well worth it! We basically had a private tour (the two of us plus another person). We took tons of pics, saw a grey putto (rare bird), Costa Rican tree frog, bull frog, tarantulas, baby pit viper, Katy-dids, Olingo, and tons of other animals/insects. The trail is paved so is easy for the whole family! Also Bernardo informed us that this part of the tour is accessible for the mobility challenged, definite plus for anyone with friends and family using canes, walkers, wheelchairs. Enjoy!

Shout out to Carlos first and foremost for being a spectacular guide on our night hike at Místico park. We went through during a rainy Friday evening but he kept an upbeat, adventurous attitude that was contagious for all of us as we searched for animals. Our group was very small which was enjoyable. We got to see frogs, a possum, a peccary, a pit viper, a velvet worm and many other animals. The tour took roughly two hours and we learned so much by the end of it regarding animals we had only seen in documentaries.

The tour was excellent. I think our guides name was Francisco. He was extremely knowledgeable, very observant, and despite the rainy and rather cool weather, we found several different species. I highly recommend the tour, especially if you’re interested in critters.

We were lucky enough to be the only people on the night tour for the evening we booked. This wasn’t an issue for our guide Roberto and so we set off in search of nocturnal wildlife. Within minutes we’d had our first sightings. Roberto was an excellent guide and could spot things we’d never have even noticed….which as it happens is essential on a night tour as most of the animals encountered are not cute and cuddly by any stretch of the imagination. Roberto said night tours were about being in the right place at the right time and with his expert guidance, we were! We had a bumper night of sightings, even Roberto said it was the best night he’d had for a long time! We saw vipers, including a Fer de Lance, spiders, including a tarantula and a Brazilian wandering Spider, frogs, including the red eyed tree frog and a reticulated glass frog, armadillos, birds and a whole host of other insects. We had a great experience on this tour and found it fascinating. We would highly recommend it.
