Manuel Antonio National Park is a coastal reserve known for its stunning beaches, lush rainforests, and diverse wildlife, including monkeys, sloths, and hundreds of bird species.

  • Guided wildlife tour of Manuel Antonio National Park

    Guided wildlife tour of Manuel Antonio National Park

    5.0· 200 reviewsFrom ₹5,143

    Two-hour guided tour through Manuel Antonio National Park including wildlife spotting, followed by time at the beach.

    Diego provided excellent care for our group, which included myself, my adult daughter, and two teenagers, along with three others. A guided tour is essential; we would have missed many creatures without Diego’s keen eye. We had the benefit of observing through his telescope and received a photo album afterward. Overall, it was well worth the expense. Additionally, Diego was very helpful in explaining to park staff why we needed to bring a small snack for one of my teens who has T1D. Thank you for everything, Diego!Jessica_C on the Guided wildlife tour of Manuel Antonio National Park tour

    Manuel Antonio National Park guided tour from Quepos

    4.9· 1108 reviewsFrom ₹2,645

    Three hours guided wildlife and beach tour of Manuel Antonio National Park, led by local experts with deep knowledge of the area's ecosystem.

    Our experience with Mop was fantastic. With 26 years of experience, he really made the tour special. We spotted many animals that we likely would have missed otherwise. Mop’s connections with other guides showed his dedication to ensuring everyone had a good experience. Traveling with our 4 and 5-year-olds meant we took things at a slower pace, but Mop adjusted wonderfully, making it enjoyable for the kids. I highly recommend this tour!477haleyk on the Manuel Antonio National Park guided tour from Quepos tour
