One of the best tours we’ve done in Costa Rica! We saw tons of animals, such a wide variety of birds, crocodiles, and three types of monkeys. And the up close to her of the mangroves was incredible. Our guide was extremely knowledgeable about all wildlife and before we couldn’t even ask a question, he had answered it. Highly recommend this tour!
Mangrove Tour on the Sierpe River
Larissa, thank you so much for this amazing review! Three types of monkeys, crocodiles, and all those birds — sounds like the mangroves really showed up for you that day! 🐊🐒🦜 We are so proud of our guide — he truly lives and breathes this ecosystem and it shows. There's nothing better than having a guide who anticipates your questions before you even ask them! So glad this was one of the highlights of your Costa Rica trip, and we hope to see you back in Drake Bay again someday. Thank you for the wonderful recommendation!

Great tour. We saw capuchins and squirrel monkeys as well as dolphins and tons of incredible birds. We even saw bats and owls under a bridge. Perfect tour for checking out the mongroves.
Mangrove Tour on the Sierpe River
Thank you so much for your great review! The mangroves were full of life that day. Seeing capuchin and squirrel monkeys, dolphins, so many incredible birds, and even bats and owls under the bridge made for such a special experience. The mangroves are one of my favorite ecosystems because there is always something fascinating to discover around every corner. Every tour is a little different depending on what the wildlife is doing that day, which makes each visit unique. Thank you for choosing Drake Bay Experts for your adventure. I’m so happy you enjoyed exploring the mangroves with us, and I hope the memories stay with you for a long time. Warmly, Sierra 🌊✨ Drake Bay Experts

We loved our trip to Sirena Station. There are a lot of people there but you’re split into small groups (we had 7 in ours) each with a guide. Ours was Sandro and he was fantastic. Without him we could have walked exactly the same paths and seen trees and a few birds. With him we saw all kinds of things. A sloth, multiple tapirs, many birds (including toucans), monkeys, insects a boa. But it wasn’t just that we saw them. His passion and knowledge meant we learned so much about the area. The guides all carry telescopes on tripods and are experts at setting them up and making sure everyone gets a good look. They’re also great about helping everyone get photos even on a phone (which is all most tourists are carrying). Highly recommend this trip.
Corcovado National Park - Sirena Station
Thank you so much for this wonderful review! I’m so happy to hear how much you enjoyed your visit to Sirena Station — it truly is one of the most incredible places for wildlife viewing. And you’re absolutely right, having a great guide makes all the difference. Sandro is fantastic, and I love hearing how his knowledge and passion helped bring the rainforest to life for you. Spotting animals like tapirs, sloths, monkeys, and even a boa is always exciting, but understanding what you’re seeing and experiencing it through the eyes of a skilled guide makes it unforgettable. Those telescopes really do add another level to the experience — and I’m glad you were able to get great views (and photos!) of everything. Thank you for your recommendation and for trusting Drake Bay Experts to help arrange your visit. We’re so happy you had such a meaningful experience in Corcovado. Warmly, Sierra 🌊✨ Drake Bay Experts

Lori, thank you so much for your kind words! It was truly a pleasure organizing your full Costa Rica journey — from San José to Drake Bay, onward to Manuel Antonio, and back again. I’m so happy to hear that everything flowed smoothly and that the transfers and accommodations met your expectations. That seamless experience is exactly what I aim to create. There are a lot of moving parts in multi-destination trips, and knowing you felt everything was well organized means so much. Thank you for trusting me with your vacation. I hope Costa Rica left beautiful memories in your heart — and if you ever feel called back to the ocean, the rainforest, or the whales, I’d love to help you plan your next adventure. Warmly, Sierra 🌊✨ Drake Bay Experts
