Unfortunately, we were only allocated one room with four beds for four people instead of two rooms with two beds each. When booking, we were not asked about the preferred room layout or the age of the fellow travelers, which would have indicated the need for two rooms. Since the number of people does not affect the price per person, this was the most lucrative solution for the provider but the least satisfactory for the travelers.

The highlight of this excursion is the unique coastal rainforest environment, with an incredible variety of plant and animal life. After our morning boat tour through the Tortuguero National Park, we took a water taxi back to the park to walk the trail in the afternoon. In the park we saw sloths, caymans, monkeys, iguanas, toucans, frogs, an agouti, and many species of exotic birds. The Pachira Lodge is very nice and the grounds are lovely, but be prepared to sweat -- there's no AC, and our hotel room was probably 80 degrees and 95% humidity throughout the night. The highlight of the hotel was the chorus of howler monkeys that woke us up in the morning. Eliezer was a very knowledgable, friendly, and organized tour guide.

Extremely frustrating trip - 8 hours to get from San Jose to Tortuguero. Rooms weren't as requested. Charged extra to correct rooms. Boat broke down on tour day 2. Another 8 hours to get back to San Jose day 3. No satisfaction from Viator or Pachira Lodge management. I won't use Viator again.
