The mangroves are very beautiful and there are many different types of animals to see. I went on the boat tour instead of kayaking, originally I wanted to go kayaking but the boat is a very good option too. And the guide Karla Alvarado is super fun and she really knows the area. It was a pleasure to do this tour!

Conocimos esta empresa por muy buenas recomendaciones y la verdad tenían razón, destacamos su puntualidad en el tour, el servicio, todo funcionó súper bien, si visitan Manuel Antonio no duden en ver su diversidad de servicio no se arrepentirían.
Como único punto creo sería bueno un poco más explicación del uso del kayak al inicio del tour cuando uno es principiante.
Por lo demás genial !!!

Videos and research didn't quite prepare me for the actual experience of floating through these incredible expressions of strength, resilience, beauty, and pura vida. The road there freaked me the eff out but being greeted by Gustavo and welcomed into his home with his mom, Mary, and dad, William (who runs the boat tours).
We got equipped with lifejackets, settled any remaining balances and placed orders for our homemade lunch (yes and it's fabulous) and ushered to the kayaks. Took a tandem with my daughter and we marveled at all that the mangrove offered - from tiger herons to the mangroves themselves - which were navigated one kayak by one kayak and watching my big girl move through a real-life Pandora -- priceless and magical.
After the two-hour tour which involved our guide, Gustavo, hanging back for a bit to talk us through what we were seeing or hearing... and sometimes couldn't see like how this ecosystem has protected itself and the land the way it has... the dinner (we had it closer to 5) was magnificent. Yes, another casado. But an excellent one at that.
If you got fidgety folks or don't like to get dirty or risk getting wet, take the boat tour. Also there are no croccodiles - do don't fear or don't expect them here.
But do it. This is a beautiful fam of guides.
Pura vida!
