Description

Meet your guide at the meeting point (Supermarket Joseth, next to Chalo parking, right before the national Park Entrance) and embark on a guided trek along the forest trails. Look for sloths, iguanas, bats, snakes, monkeys, frogs, toucans, and much more as you walk. Benefit from the knowledge of a local expert naturalist as they spot creatures you may otherwise have missed. In addition, your guide will use a high-definition spotting scope and take great pictures which they'll share with you after the tour. Your tour ends at one of the world’s best beaches, Manuel Antonio Beach, the perfect spot to unwind or go for a swim at the end of your guided hiking experience in Manuel Antonio National Park. IMPORTANT: this is a guided tour service, national park entrance ticket is not included on this activity. You have to buy it on the only and official website of the national park: https://serviciosenlinea.sinac.go.cr/ Plastic water bottles and food are not allowed to enter the park. In high season (December to April), the entrance tickets get sell out fast. Please buy yours with at least 3 to 7 days of anticipation. In low season (may to November) one day before is good. The national park tickets are purchased by time slot for example from 7:00am to 7:40am, if you don’t find time slot available for our tour, you can buy any other time slot and still enter a different time with us. They are not strict about it. Please arrive 5 or 10 minutes before the tour. Other people in the group don’t have to wait for you, we will wait 10 minutes and then start the activity. After that you can catch up with us on the trail, please be punctual. Our meeting point is outside the closest parking (Parking Chalo), there is no official parking of the national park. All are private and all around $10. It is very easy to get there in public transportation and driving, if you are driving, on the way to our meeting point you will see street vendors trying to stop you to make you park at their place, I recommend the last parking lot Parking Chalo. Meeting point is at the supermarket right before the national park entrance (not the one in front of the beach). Ask your guide if you need any information on WhatsApp or on the booking email contact. We will contact you the night before the activity for a friendly reminder and to make sure you are ready for the tour. Pura vida!
