Reviews
The tour was fascinating and well-scheduled. Our guide was friendly, and although the walking portion was somewhat intense, it is important to mention that visitors should have at least moderate endurance and balance.
Gustavo was a fantastic guide, very knowledgeable and adaptable throughout our tour. I strongly recommend him.
If you're looking to see monkeys, the rainforest should be your top destination. Unfortunately, when we arrived, it was at capacity and our guide hadn't secured reservations. We couldn't enter, which was disappointing. I suggest skipping the Alfaro part.
