Summary: Excellent service, we visited Tortuguero in the month of February, although it is not season for sighting Turtles we had the opportunity to observe many species of animals and navigate the canals. The service of the tour was all inclusive and we were very satisfied with both the accommodation at the River View hotel and the food at the Mi Niño Restaurant. Don Freddy the tour guide was very friendly and respectful with much knowledge he shared with us. Don Netfalí always attended our inquiries and kept an eye on the logistician. I really recommend the services of the company.

Summary: On our last evening in Costa Rica we decided to squeeze in a nighttime sea turtle watching. Guide was very knowledgable and passionate about the area and turtles, especially behind that he was local. We learned a lot about turtles that evening. We did end up waiting for quite awhile in fear that no turtles would appear but we had the change to witness a leatherback turtle arrive on the beach and lay her eggs. The animal was absolutely incredible and impressive to see - so big and prehistoric looking. Absolutely amazing and wholesome experience - one that we will never forget. Sadly no photos are allowed but they make our memories even more special.
