Do it - This was incredible. We got super lucky and saw a ton of beautiful wildlife, and the tour guide and driver were very knowledgeable about all the animals and the land, and great at finding all the hidden creatures. Couldn't recommend enough. Bring water, closed shoes and bug spray :)

Come to the dark side- we have snakes! - We had an amazing time with Adrian on the night tour. We saw lots of animals we wouldn’t have seen otherwise including three varieties of snakes (blonde headed brown vine, coral, eyelash pit viper), three tarantulas, an owl butterfly, bullet ants, baby hummingbirds in a nest, a tree frog, two sloths, and many others. The guide is clearly extremely knowledgeable about the wildlife found in Manzanillo Refuge and Costa Rica in general. The night tour was a special experience and totally worth it!

A unique experience - The night hike with Adrian was wonderful and educational. We saw lots of creepy crawlies, insects laying eggs, spiders explosively shooting their webs, hummingbird chicks and even a skunk. At the end of the hike we came across an ocelot, that was our highlight! Adrian, thank you for the wonderful impressions and also for the shuttle to the bar on the way back!
