REVIEWS
Anna G. – Cartago
“The La Pastora trail was spectacular—we heard toucans, visited several waterfalls, spotted a couple hawks, and a tapir. You can feel the team’s commitment to conservation: they showed
us how they reforest the area and collect waste. Five stars!”
Luis M. – Mexico City
“I had never climbed a +30‑meter tree before. With Tropical Forest’s
guides I felt safe the whole time, and the view over the Los Santos
Valley was unforgettable. A must-do for all those who want to be daring!”
Mariana R. – San José
“I went with my 8‑ and 11‑year‑olds and we learned about local wildlife
while walking through the tropical forest! We left inspired to
take better care of the environment. We saw woodpeckers, trogons, toucans, and all type of colorful birds.”
