Safari the mangroves and fauna of the Tamarindo National Park
A morning full of animals
I took the mangrove tour with this company and it was one of the best decisions I made during my trip to Tamarindo. During this tour, the guide Juan Carlos explained to me about the place, the birds, monkeys, and crocodiles. It is an ideal tour if you are in Tamarindo

8 Days - San Jose - Tortuguero - Cahuita
lots to see with good guides
Well put together tour with excellent communication from the operator, a little too much time spent in busses would be my only criticism but this was mostly due to road closures.
