Sloth Watching Tour

This was a fun activity for our family and we saw a bunch of animals, not only sloths. The experience is a little bit controlled in that the area is pretty small (maybe a few acres) and there are resident sloths who they know by name living there. You are pretty much guaranteed to see them. They bring little scope so you can see the sloths way up in the canopy. Our guide Josue was great, he said he only learned English 4 months ago but he was completely fluent and very patient with our group.

We saw at least 5 Sloths despite torrential rain so well worth doing as they are hard to spot without a guide

Our guide was very knowledgeable and friendly! We saw seven sloths, one very close up, plus many other animals. Very organized and easy.

Our guide Augustin went above and beyond to help us get amazing pictures of the 13 sloths he spotted! He was excellent and super knowledgeable.

Great tour. Saw lots of creatures: sloths, frogs, lizard, owl, birds and viper. Abel is a very knowledgeable and friendly guide. Saw and learned so much more than we would have done if we didn't have a guide.

The naturalists/guides are fantastic. We saw a number of sloths, one which was about 3 meters from us. We saw many beautiful birds as well. It’s a beautiful location and the walk through the forest was with the price of admission. Note: IMHO getting a guide is critical on any of the nature hikes in Costa Rica. They are amazing at finding and identifying an incredible array of animals. Some large. Some very small. Some fast. Some very SSSLOWWWW. Without the guides you’d miss 95% off what your there to see.

Great tour. Our guide did a fantastic job, pointing out sloths, frogs, and giving us info about the flora in the area. Recommended!

This location is quite unassuming - but hidden back from the street is a wonderful wildlife park. Our guide led us to some memorable experiences - including great views of mom & baby sloths, plus up close views of poisionous frogs and owls. Our guide was warm with our family group of 10, and very knowledgeable about the flora and fauna we saw. This is a slow tour - lots of standing/watching/waiting.

We saw a number of sloths. Several if them moved quite a bit which was amazing. We saw a toucan pooping which was funny and saw beautiful birds and lizards.

This was the best tour our guide Sergio was amazing he found many sloths and made sure to help get photos and videos with the scope for really upclose shots. They used a laser light to point out exactly where to look so you would not miss the sloth.

We had no idea what to expect and we were pleasantly surprised!!! Our guide was super knowledgeable and help us to see the sloths! You have to go if you are in Costa Rica anywhere near La Fortuna!!!

It looks very touristy, but the tour was good. The guide was very knowledgeable. He found several sloths, and helped take pictures of them for us. He found a poisonous frog and took a picture for us. Good tour and only took a little over an hour.
