When we were in Tortuguero, we were looking for a tour guide in the park + for the Turtle watching. Angél was so nice and humble and friendly so we booked with him. Both activities were super amazing. It was very well organised, the price was very fair. The guides are local which is important to me, and the length was perfect. We experienced some amazing moments with the guides, I would 100% recommend them.
Super happy with the experience, we saw everything! 2 sloths, 3 alligators, a basilicas walk through the water, a lot of things more!! I really liked the experience and saw it super complete 😍
Super recommended, we have seen super close up alligators, sloths, basilisks and many other fauna. Our guide Angel has been amazing and very friendly! Lucky to share the time with him
We were just our family, and the guide was Minor. He knew a lot and interesting to tell, super nice and helpful. The setting is beautiful, highly recommended!! Thx! Leon, Carla and Lyne!
2-hour tour with a French guide, Hugo. He took the time to explain everything we saw (fauna and flora). He was very respectful of nature, made sure that our adventure was as immersive as possible, and that magic worked. We paid 30$ (~25€) per person, and it was worth them! Small tip: make the visit early in the morning (6am) to see as many animals as possible.
We had a fantastic night tour and were taken into a jungle area, which was exciting. We saw Red eyed frog, porcupine, armadillo and the knowledge of our guide was so good. The next morning, we went on an electric powered kayak, and this enabled us to go further and also enabled us to go into the small canals, that bigger boats can't get in to. Plenty of wildlife out there, from birds to caimen, Monkeys. So much fun. Thank you for making our stay in Tortuguero a special memory.. Catharine and Kieran.
Fantastic tour with super good guide Pablo Kano tour with electric motor is quite ingenious so you get further into the rainforest. We saw lots of animals - thanks to Pablo who spotted kaimans and turtles and lots of birds. Definitely a recommendation from here👍
Great canoe trip with incredible wildlife. We saw caimans, different monkey species, turtles, a lot of different birds, iguanas, lizards. Thanks to E-canoe we were also allowed into the small side arms. Pablo our guide was super nice and explained to us all the animals and also some about the development of Tortuguero. Tortuguero life Tours also helped us with the shuttle tour to Guapiles. Everything very straightforward, all staff very friendly. Thanks for the nice tour. Pura Vida
I did 3 tours with Tortuguero life tours and the first one was Cannoe. We started at 6:45 am and we were lucky with the whether, Abel the guide, led us into amazing river canals where we were able to see caimans, various type of birds, turtles and even bats! The speciality of our guide was animal sound mimic which made some species actually answer back! Always worried about the group, super friendly guide and a tour shop that you can trust finding the best guide for you with super accessible prices!
My friend Engel was the best tour guide. He took care of all our needs and was very accommodating. Even helped me find a place to stay, food to eat, and made sure I had a safe stay in tortugeuro. All your needs in this town . Tortuguero life tours can help you with.
