Overview

The tortuguero canals, will lead you through the living jungle that stretches over the narrow canals, formed by the rivers born in the high mountains, making their way to the sea. Common sightings here are monkeys, crocodiles, iguanas and sloths. The canals are also considered a bird watcher’s paradise, so keep your eyes open! The canals of Tortuguero are without a doubt one of the main attractions in Costa Rica, and this is a unique opportunity to experience this natural wonder. You will pass through some of the country’s most fertile areas and learn about Costa Rica’s main agricultural products. Along the way, you will see cocoa plantations and ornamental flowers.

Costa Rican Start of our vacation!!

Published on Jan, 2025

This trip was great for families. Our tour guide Kendrick made sure of it, ensuring they saw animals l, recommending great good, and having a fun experience at the beach. Because the tour was private we were able to adjust to our speed as compared to group tours this was an extra benefit. Kendrick was knowledgeable about the area and what we would be seeing. I felt he went above and beyond for a personal experience. Would highly recommend booking this tour out of Puerto Limon, Costa Rica.

Great tour!

Nicole and Alex were amazing! The tour was fantastic- we saw several sloths, monkeys and iguanas. Nicole was extremely knowledgeable and we learned a lot. We had a wonderful time and highly recommend the tour and Nicole and Alex.

Best tour!

Published on Nov, 2024

So great!!! Saw some monkeys, sloths, and iguanas on the canal. And took us around Limón in an air conditioned van… much needed! Sirias drove us around and Richeylin was such a great tour guide!! She made us feel so safe and comfortable!!

Puerto Limon River Cruise and City Tour

Published on Jan, 2024

Were a few drawbacks as the van's air-conditioning was not up to the job and some stops not that interesting. But Risheylin our young guide did a great job and made up for any deficiencies (thus the 5 stars). She was very knowledgeable and did her best to accommodated everyone.

Great Experience

Published on Jan, 2024

Great local Guide - wonderful, relaxed excursion. Highly recommend. So much information about the wonderful country of Costa Rica and its people, ecology, and natural beauty. Definitely ‘Pura Vida’!
