Discover the rich and diverse wildlife that call Manuel Antonio National Park home. On this three hour small group tour, your trained guide will transport you through the primary and secondary forest trails of this nature reserve whilst making regular stops to point out a variety of animals – many of which are invisible to the naked eye! Learn all about each unique species that you come across as well as the natural history of the forest. On any given day you can encounter sloths, monkeys, toucans, deer, iguanas, lizards, snakes, frogs, hummingbirds, and a countless variety of insects including butterflies, crickets, and more. To really appreciate these animals, your guide will bring a professional telescope which will allow you to see these animals like they’re up close and capture that perfect photo on you camera. Hotel pick up and drop off can also be provided (optional extra), but Manuel Antonio comes with an excellent beach so be sure to bring your swimwear for a dip in the warm waters right after your tour.
