The most bio-diverse place on the planet. Not too too crowded as it's fairly remote. Gorgeous setting and lots of wildlife spotted. More

We had a wonderful experience touring Corcovado National Park with Tony, a tour guide available through Aguila de Osa Inn in Drake Bay. Tony was knowledgeable, patient, and thoughtful. He shared his understanding of the flora and fauna in a compelling fashion. We will return and take another tour with him soon. More

Beautiful scenery, vegetation, saw a number of animals, loved the fresh rivers! Take a guide - the local and well trained guides (Eric for us!) know how to spot wildlife and where they are usually hanging out. The trail we went in on was pretty travelled so I would assume that we saw less than perhaps we could have if... More

We spent 2 nights at the ranger station, where we went on day hikes and had amazing meals cooked by our guide. Ask for Wilberth Mendez as your guide - he did an awesome job finding wildlife and taking us through the rainforest. He's... More

From the moment we set foot on the beach I knew we were in for a great adventure. Our guide spoke softly and let us know what he expected. Stay together, speak softly, stop when I tell you to ... and then he started scanning the jungle line (that ends on the beach). What are you looking for? Puma! He... More

The best place for wildlife viewing and great place for fotography, in just 2-3 hours walk you will see more monkeys and scarlet macaws than anywhere else in Costa Rica... I was able to see bull sharks and crocodiles in the Sirena river and a Tapir really close. Tucans, sloths, snakes, anteaters,etc.... if you have the chance to fly into... More
