Description

Visit one of the most ecologically rich national parks in Costa Rica at Manuel Antonio Park. See the biodiversity of fauna, ecosystems and sceneries in the central Pacific area of Costa Rica, with a certified guide. First, after you’ve bought your National Park entry ticket ahead of time online, you’ll meet your guide close to the park entrance. After a security check by the park rangers, begin a hike at a slow pace to find as much wildlife as possible. As you go on the trail, your tour guide will be sharing knowledge, hear about the natural history of the animals as well as the history and ecosystems of the area. The guide will carry a high definition spotting scope to provide you with a great close-up view of the wildlife, making it easier to get detailed pictures too. After having seen some sloths, monkeys, bats, birds, iguanas, lizards, agoutis, and more, we'll have another opportunity to use the bathrooms. Remember every day is different in a park where animals are wild and free, therefore it is always a nice surprise to see all of this different wildlife in it's natural habitat. Next, stop at the park cafeteria for a break, where you will enjoy some fresh tropical fruit and a natural drink (small group and private tour options). After the short break, hike some more with your guide until you reach Manuel Antonio Beach, rated one of the most beautiful beaches in the world. Finally, whenever you're ready get back to the starting point. From here, take advantage of the restaurants, supermarkets, and souvenir shops near the meeting point. North Espadilla Beach is also nearby, in case you want to stay and hang out on your own after the tour. Note: Please remember this National Park requires you to buy an admission ticket that is not included in this tour, since this is a pretty visited park in high season and also has a daily limit of visitation, we strongly recommend to purchase your park entry tickets ahead of time, in high season (December-April) 4 days of anticipation at least, for low season (May-November) minimum 1 day before your visit.
