Returning been here since 1997 and each year I continue to be amazed. I highly recommend going with a guide for the 1 hr walk around the reserve. Unless, you are a gifted naturalist, you won't see much. The guides know where the poison frogs, caiman, sloths, and monkey reside. They can also tell you all about the amazing flora... More

this is a great place to visit for two hours. purchase the guided tour b.c you will miss a lot if you don't. Ilias is passionate about wildlife, especially birds. He fed the birds bananas while we were waiting for others to arrive. it was great to see the birds so close up. they are fearless. We saw frogs, bats,... More

Four of us visited the Ecocentro Danaus in May of 2013 and were quite awed at the species offered. Aside from the two and three toed-sloths, we were impressed with the butterflies, frogs, salamanders in addition to the spectacular flora. Bromeliads of many types, bamboo and balsa and palms of differing varieties contributed to a most enjoyable afternoon. Our guide... More

Highly recommend this as it is different from any other tour you will find in this area. You go at night armed with flashlights just as the sun goes down and the nocturnal animals come out. you can find lots of frogs and basilisks maybe a caiman or two and lots of insects. really awesome trip and the tour guide...

My husband and I made a last minute decision to try the night tour at Danaus, and were very glad we did! We were lucky enough to end up touring just the two of us with our guide, Elias. He was very knowledgeable and not only that, just a really nice person whose company we enjoyed. We saw many frogs,... More

This was our second visit to Ecocentro Danaus. Our first was 3 years ago. My wife and I continue to be impressed by the growth and management of this nature preserve. The guides and caretakers are friendly, helpful, and are truly working to share the examples of the natural environ of their native land with visitors. The flora is remarkable.... More

We saw amazing animals, bugs, lizards, etc...including a baby sloth that we got to pet! The tour guide was great, and it was an experience we will never forget!

My husband and I are real nature lovers. The staff at Ecocentro is very nice and very informative. We just walked in and they were very accommodating. Thank goodness we arrive during a lower season and just when another tour was leaving. We got to casually walk around with our guide and learned a lot about the animal and habitat.... More

Costs $12 without a guide, $17 with a guide - definitely worth taking a guide. It took about an hour and a half to see the grounds with a guide at a leisurely pace (flat and an easy walk for anyone who'd be concerned with that). It's not a big place but there was plenty to see, from sloths to... More
