    · May 25th, 2024
    Alex was a great tour guide and we had a blast! The bus and boat that we were taken on were both comfortable and safe. The accommodations were as described. As long as it cools down enough at night, with a rainstorm for example, it’s comfortable enough to sleep without AC. The amenities on the lodge were fantastic, clean, and well maintained. The beach was stunning and the tours provided were really incredible and intimate. Highly would recommend this tour!

    Excellent organisation. We had 2 great days in Tortuguero. I didn’t like that they tried iteratively to sell additional optional tours. The boat tour included is very interesting. In contrast to the nature walk and the visit of the village, which are ok-isch

    The tour was very well organised, the tour guide was knowledgeable, Laguna lodge was comfortable and lovely and the food was great. The only thing I can highlight as negative is that they recommend to do the Turtle tour (not included in the tour) the first day and the times can't be chosen, so you have a 5am wake up and you finish the turtle tour at around midnight.

    A fantastic and more unusual spot for wildlife watching. Many 'wishlist' species seen here, including sloth, toucan, croc and red eyed tree frog. Pleasantly suprised by the array of additional options to choose from and fill this trip, including hiking, kayaking, turtle night walk and extra boat trips. Advertising this would help make this tour even more appealing. Would definately recommend

    Except for two missing codes for the morning tour of the canals and the Hill walk, everything was good. Stress was because the previously included description for the 3 days and two nights was not correct. I had to check several times at the reception and with the guide and even phone with the tour operator. The next morning everything was both clear and included and in the evening two drinks as an apology with it Nevertheless, the tour was very good. The lodge and the food are good. The guide for the canal tour at 8:30, Cito, was excellent and showed us lots of wildlife and great scenery. Also the hill walk with Cito was great !!! All in all epmommendable
