This enchanted and secluded park is the save heaven of many different species of while life not only native of Costa Rica, but to the Americas. Travelling through the waters of the hidden lagoons and canals as the flowering vine covered trees blend in with their own water reflection we will have the unique experience of observing as close as possible several species of flora and fauna. It is easy to observe several species of crocodiles, toucan, monkeys, slots, macaws, iguanas and some others. Among such species we find the majestic green sea turtle (Chelonia mydas) which has in Tortuguero 21 miles of beach to nest in (July to October); the largest nesting site of the western hemisphere. Tortuguero is considered the most important nesting site on the western half of the caribbean for the green turtle that comes to the beach to nest every year. . Please note that the nesting tour only takes place at night and you will not see turtles nesting on the beach during this one day tour.

We did a tour with Ricardo as our guide and had a wonderful experience! He was very knowledgeable about the wildlife, surrounding landscape, and history of the area. The canal tour was magical and he showed us so much wildlife. He also took us to an amazing breakfast buffet and a delicious Costa Rican lunch in a small, quaint village in Tortuguero. Overall, we had an amazing experience because Ricardo was so passionate and friendly. We definitely recommend this guided tour.

El paseo de los canales en el bote. Vimos cocodrilos, iguanas, monos cara blanca... en la excursión hasta el mirador donde podíamos ver la playa donde desoban las tortugas, encontramos ranitas rojas de patas azules, cueva con murciélagos y un sin fin de arboles gigantes. Tuvimos la gran suerte de ir solos con el guía y con el "capitan". Lo mejor de todos los tour que hicimos en Costa Rica. Y el guía un profesional y gran persona.

I had very high hopes for the tour, but it ended up being a very long, tiring, sort of uneventful day. The van was WAY too small for 9 total passengers; a family sized van, not a tour van. Very tight. I felt very bad for the people in the back row. Every time we stopped and got out they had to move the seats forward to allow the back and middle passengers to get out. The ride was scary, two lane road, lots of semi trucks. Even the tour guide said “this road very bad, lots of accidents”. WAY too long of a drive. Keep in mind 1/2 your day is spent just driving there and back. The tour guide had pretty broken-English. He tried very hard, but not very charismatic or articulate. We saw very few animals and that was my main goal. A couple small crocodiles along the canal, a couple iguanas, birds, two monkeys on the walk. Just too few animals for all the effort. Tortuguero not exciting, could be skipped, the ocean was cool though. I dreaded getting back in the van at the end of the tour, I think everyone did. I definitely would not recommend this tour to a friend. Just too long of a day, too cramped, I was exhausted.
