What to expect

Explore the Wilderness on this after-dark nature adventure where frogs, sloths, snakes plus other night active creatures are more likely to show up in any minute while you explore of the forest. As a truly eco tour, we operate in small groups and move gently through the forest, minimizing our footprint while maximizing every encounter. Our small group format means personal attention, genuine conversation, and moments that feel completely wild and unexpected. This is the secret side of nature that most visitors never experience — a rainforest alive with movement, sound, and creatures that spend daylight hours hidden. Sloths begin to move, Kinkajous descend through the canopy, Pit vipers coil silently along the branches and sleeping toucans tuck into the treetops. Along the way, you can find unexpected sighting moments of rare nocturnal species that no daytime tour can offer. Keep your eyes open for sloths making their slow, graceful descent through the canopy above.
