We had a wonderful afternoon with Antonio, our guide, canoeing through the channels of The Tortuguero National Park. He’s been doing these tours for twenty years, and his experience, eyes, and ears are able to locate the wildlife we would have missed on our own. Due to our own schedule changing, we had to go in the afternoon, however, If you want to see a lot of wildlife book the morning tour as it is cooler, and that’s when the animals are most active.

Fantastic experience in Tortuguero! Super organized agency even before our arrival, with water taxis arranged directly from our hotel. Warm welcome and great attention to detail. The tours were exceptional thanks to extraordinary guides: Verni guided us by canoe through the narrowest channels and during the thrilling turtle nesting, while Diego was unbeatable at spotting wildlife in the park and on the night tour. Passion, kindness, and great professionalism. Highly recommended! 🐢❤️
Amazing guide and very friendly, very recommended tour. The guide knows a lot and super kind for answer your questions
We had a wonderful experience! We did a morning canoe tour, afternoon hike, and finally the sea turtle tour after dark. Byron was a knowledgeable and enthusiastic tour guide— we had a lot of fun with him. We saw lots of wildlife, including caimans, three monkey species, anteater, boa constrictor, and several sea turtles. Awesome day, thank you!
We booked a Canoe tour, day hike and night tour with Solangie's. The highlight was definitely the canoe tour during which our guide Rafa spotted numerous Iguanas, birds like Toucans, Aningas, etc. We also got to be really up-close with a caiman. Rafa was very helpful in accommodating our requests and arranging ferries to and from our lodge. Night tour was really fun too as we go to see sloths, spiders and lizards and other creatures. The hill tour offered amazing views of the Caribbean at the top and Rafa kept us informed about the history and geology of the place.
we took a boat tour and a night tour. Our experience was great. First of all because we were alone in the boat then because Rafa our guide was able to introduce us to many species of animals and all with lots of anecdotes. It was very interesting, I recommend it two thousand percent. The kindness and taste for the job he does has been passed on to us.
The experiences were amazing! I did the canoe with Rafa which was fantastic, we’ve seen many animals and beautiful scenes! I did also the night which was good, we did see snakes! And I did the walking tour in the hill with José whom is a wonderful guide too! I recommend 100%
We had a really nice 4 days, with different nice tours. Amazing trip, the people are really kind and great. I would recommend this to other people!
Everything very nice, we made as a family very good friendship with the guide who was quite good, we could connect with nature and animals
Many thanks to Solangie's Tour for allowing us to enjoy Tortuguero as we imagined. We enjoyed the jungle night tour, canoe tour and could observe the laying of a turtle all accompanied by our guide Bayron who is simply exceptional and we recommend 1000%!
We are very happy with this tour, we really liked it 🥰 and Byron, our guide, was incredible, I recommend him!!
We have nothing negative to say about our tour. We learned a lot and also saw a lot of animals. It was definitely worth it!
Ce fut une super expérience nous avons vu plein de chose (paresseux, fourmilier, toucan, caymans…) merci à Manuel qui a été un guide exceptionnel sans lui nous n’aurions pas vu et appris autant de chose
We had Byron as our guide! Through Byron we have seen several animals that we would have passed without him. It was a nice experience!!
Best guides Pablo, Freddy, Asley and Byron. They live by telling you about their surroundings and seeing as much as possible. The life experience of watching a green turtle spawn. Too many people, but an experience makes her great Freddy and Asley always attentive
I recommend hiring on Solangies tour. Dexter was the person who was in charge from the first moment of organizing the tours offering flexibility and very attentive to make everything to our liking.
It was a wonderful tour that was very individually designed and where you had a lot to see. The guide Rafa is very friendly and knowledgeable, one of the best tours I have done on my travels so far and one that I can really only recommend if you are in Tortuguero.
It was a beautiful experience. We were treated excellently. I recommend each and every one of the tours since each one will give you a unique and unforgettable experience. Great treatment and a landscape rich in fauna and flora. 100% recommended to everyone. I would repeat without a doubt. Greetings to all our friends that we met thanks to making the trip to Costa Rica. Beautiful place, wonderful people!!!
Recommended by Rafa, top tours! Guided tours in different languages, you will appreciate the natural and spontaneous side.
