Amazing!!! - We are so happy to have found Brandon and his tour. He knows every flower, every bird and animal and spots them and shows us. He knows the history of the volcano, the waterfall and basically all things Costa Rica. He and his two assistants were so friendly and nice. We did the Arenal hike, the Mistico Bridges and the Fortuna Waterfall and he knew everything about them and pointed out all we need to see. I highly recommend Brandon and his tour company.

Amazing wildlife tour in La Fortuna - The tour was amazing. We saw snakes, toucans, lots of interesting trees and plants. The waterfall was immense and the volcano was so interesting. Our guide Karina was fabulous, always explaining everything and had an answer to every question. A great tour, would definitely recommend!

Arenal tour with Brandon Cruz - Brandon was a fantastic guide for our private tour around Arenal. Without his help, we wouldn’t have seen any of the animals he pointed out. He also gave us some great history on the area. His English was great and he was so good with the kids. I’d highly recommend a tour with him!

Personalized Tours at a Great Value - Wildlife Tours Costa Rica took us on a tour of the hanging bridges in Mistico Park outside La Fortuna in the Arenal Volcano area. Brandon is extremely knowledgeable and provides a personalized, unrushed tour. There was more than enough time to see whatever we wanted to see and go at our pace. We were the only people on his tour that day, but he was extremely helpful and courteous to others we encountered on the tour, showing them the animals and helping us and others take great pictures through his scope. His prices are very reasonable and provide great value. We’ve been on many tours throughout Costa Rica and highly recommend Wildlife Tours Costa Rica.

Incredible Experience - A most wonderful trip we got to experience with the very knowledgeable and fun Brandon. We decided to visit the Peninsula Sector of the national park and had a nice stroll through the forest to reach the lookout tower and Arenal Lake itself. During the visit we got to see many different species and though a little cloudy managed to see Arenal Volcano. Would recommend this activity with Brandon to all visitors of La Fortuna/Arenal.

The perfect tour! - I wanted a tour with a knowledgeable nature guide and was recommended Brandon. He not only didn't disappoint, he exceeded all expectations! He was professional, very nice but most importantly, he knew so much about nature and how to find it! We did a naturalist hike at the hanging bridges and spotted birds, frogs, snakes and even a sloth! My friends were also so impressed! I could go on forever but if you see this, don't hesitate, just book him, you will be so happy you did!
