We had an amazing time with Emmanuel as our tour guide. He was very knowledgeable and had a great eye for spotting things we would have never seen. Certain paths aren’t marked well and the route we took we would have never went on had it not been for Emmanuel leading. He brought a telescopic lens which was crucial for seeing most of the birds and animals spotted up close. We saw a sloth, monkeys red frog and multiple types of birds. Would absolutely recommend you go on a guided tour or you will be seeing 1/10 of what you should be. A+ absolutely worth it. Ask for Emmanuel as your guide.
Top professional and a great guy

Enormous knowledge of plants, animals, and the entire Costa Rican eco-system. And a very pleasant, warm person with a sense of humor. We spotted several sloths, howler monkeys, frogs, and magnificent birds, and learned about beautiful trees and plants. We could never have experienced this without Shailo's guidance. Undoubtedly one of the best guided experiences we've ever had.

Shailo is an amazing nature guide who knows how to connect visitors with the unique nature of this part of Costa Rica. He will show you all sorts of animals and plants you would have walked past and he also knows about the history, culture and geology of the area. You will learn a lot even when you are more experiences with wildlife. Shailo made the tour relaxed and fun while pointing out the importance of conservation. From spidermonkeys to small birds, he knows it all!

We had the pleasure of experiencing three different trips with Shailo. We did the Dolphin Tour, the Hike in Gandoca Manzanillo Refuge and a Hike in Cahuita National Park. He was friendly, professional and so incredibly knowledgeable about the local wildlife, plants, environment and culture. Our trip wouldn’t have been the same without him, so we highly recommend him to anyone traveling to the Puerto Viejo area.

We had the most amazing and magical woods walk with Emanuel, who has been in the area 9 years and is incredibly knowledgeable, curious and easygoing. We walked for hours in the woods and by the beach, took a short swim, and talked and learned about birds, sloths, monkeys, poison dart frogs, many types of lizards, trees, vegetation, even fungi! And of course we saw all of these things. Our group of four will likely be talking about this tour for years to come! We are so grateful to Emanuel for one of our best experiences of Costa Rica.
