Manuel Antonio national park tour:

With the establishment of Manuel Antonio National Park in 1972, the people of Costa Rica decided to preserve for future generations one of the most beautiful and bio-diverse areas in the world. Although it is the country’s smallest national park, the stunning beauty and diversity of wildlife in its 4.249 acres is what makes this place a must see for every visitor in the country. Manuel Antonio offers a charming combination of rain forest, beaches and coral reefs. This beautiful park is home to sloths, three species of monkeys (white faced, squirrel, howler), iguanas, and millions of colourful little land crabs. Some of the trails afford spectacular ocean views. Our naturalist guides will take you on an amazing jungle experience. The goal of the Manuel Antonio Expeditions team is to share and teach you about Manuel Antonio’s best nature secrets. Walk for about 3 miles on easy trails searching for unique animals and plants. During our tour you will learn about the symbiotic relationship between many animals and plants. Let us help you get your own ¨national geographic¨ type photos with your digital camera through any of our top of the line spotting scopes. The size of our group tours are about 10 people max for each tour guide.

Mangrove tour:

Welcome to Manuel Antonio Expeditions’ Mangrove tour. Our experienced naturalist guides will take you on a special journey through this amazing habitat that features caimans, boa constrictors, crocodiles, monkeys and over 100 species of local and migrating birds. Damas Island is one of the last major mangrove areas, protected in the central pacific. This place fulfills an important role in Costa Rica’s rich biodiversity. It is not uncommon to spot herons, sand pipers, egrets and many other endemic or migrant bird species. You may get the chance to see the white-face monkeys up close or even see the rare silky anteater, all from the comfort of your boat or kayak. Our boats have capacity for 10 passengers and use 4 stroke engines to provide a smooth, comfortable ride. Damas Mangrove is one of the most recommended tours for wildlife in Manuel Antonio. Day and night tours are available, depending on high tide.
