My husband and I did a private kayak tour with our tour guide Anthony. We went up the river near Langosta. It was a 2 hour morning tour. We saw beautiful birds and it was just so beautiful and peaceful. We also saw a small baby crocodile. Anthony was so knowledgeable about the trees and wildlife on the river.

The highlight of the Bird Watching morning was seeing and capturing the Long-tailed Manikins and not only seeing but videoing the two males as they courted a female manikin. The other was finding and photographing the Barred Antshrike. The location for the bird watching tour was great and the fact we didn't have to drive 2 hour or more to get there. For myself I always want more time to spend photographing the birds we find. 2 hours goes by too quickly. The other thing that would make this tour even better is leaving earlier in the morning but our guide was great and I really enjoyed the tour even with the lens/camera issues I was having.

Be aware: misleading advertising and altogether disappointing tour. 3 hours drive squeezed in a 3rd row of SUV and 1 hour 7 min exactly on the boat tour - Nothing to do with “early bird watching tour”. We’ve paid 170 USD for nothing. As pervious reviewer wrote: not honest description.
As a comparison the day before we had boat trip with local guide which cost 60 USD for two people. It was exciting and professionally arranged. Full 3 hour on the boat and lots of birds, monkeys and crocodiles. Cold bottle of water included.
So called tour sold by Leon from Side by Side ATV Tours & WildLife was nothing like it and it’s simply waste of time and money.
Better and much cheaper was taking local guide on the north end of Playa Tamarindo.
Think twice please before getting any tour from Side by Side ATV Tours & WildLife.
