Tour Information

  • Tour Description

    One of our most popular tours, a unique experience of nature and wildlife that you can only experience in the Damas Mangrove. Let our “interactive” tropical rainforest and delicate mangrove ecosystem knock your socks off. This adventure of Costa Rican natural history – its exotic flora and fauna – is highly recommended for nature lovers, young or old, who wants to experience the pulse of the mangrove ecosystem. Let our world-class, highly trained bilingual nature guides steer you peacefully and comfortably in our high-tech, ultra-quiet estuary boats as the wildlife comes to you – sometimes right into the boat!

    Experience curious families of monkeys as they migrate across the mangrove ecosystem (including your boat) in search of food and adventure. Discover the secret ways different exotic trees of Costa Rica replenish the environment worldwide yet sustain themselves for decades of growth.

    Wind through acres of a protected, pristine Costa Rican estuary as your experienced guides educate you on the secrets – both past and present – of the mangrove eco-structure, so vital to Costa Rica and the world. During the tour you might spot, with the help of your experienced guide, caimans, sloths, crocodiles, boas, white face monkeys, egrets, and so many more species of wildlife, as your boat leisurely makes its way through the mangrove channels along the gentle currents of the coastal tides.

    End your adventure with a relaxing yet rewarding typical Costa Rican meal at a local “hot spot” restaurant before you return to your lodging. You must come experience this adventure before it slowly fades away on the international landscape of extinct ecosystems. Come, learn, and experience the delicate treasure Costa Ricans are so desperately trying (and successfully) to preserve – the mangroves.

    Become a part of preserving not only this Costa Rican treasure, but a needed intricate ecosystem necessary for the balance of the world’s habitat. Acquire a thoughtful perspective on this delicate ecosystem and how to practice better sustainability.
