The BEST tour!

5.00We did the sloth and coffee tour on our last day in Costa Rica, and it was by far my favorite activity we did on the trip. It was small and authentic, and we saw the most amazing wildlife! The coffee tour was fascinating, and we finished the tour with coffee and homemade tortillas. Highly recommend!
So worth it!

5.00Enjoyed this place as our tour Steve was informative and lots of fun! He started with showing us a frog that was hiding inside a big leaf. He made sure to tell us not to touch things so that we don't disturb animals in their natural habitat. Then we saw sloths in random areas of the forest, one was even pregnant. There was one of the sloths that was relaxing on a tree but after a few minutes raised its hand up and was like "ok enough pictures" lol. We saw a poisonous red frog, a baby owl, and even explained on some plants and fruits that were in the area. I loved how it was us going into the animals natural habitat and not at a zoo, taking the animal out of their own habitat. It was about 30-40 minutes long and was worth every minute!
