PRIVATE Manuel Antonio National Park Tour

Overview

A private tour of Manual Antonio National Park can ensure the maximum experience for you and your family with a professional naturalist guide. You’ll have the undivided attention of a wildlife specialist who will introduce you to many types of tropical plant and animal life that you would likely not find on your own. With a large spotting scope, your guide will provide easy access to wildlife hidden in the treetops and assist with capturing close-up photos using your camera or phone directly through the scope to amaze your friends back home.

Manuel Antonio National Park is the most visited of all the national parks mainly due to its rich abundance of wildlife within a variety of different habitats. Located where the jungle comes right down to the shoreline, the park has well-groomed forest paths plus wooden walkways that take you above the crocodiles living in the mangrove swamp. Mangrove trees play an important role in protecting nurseries of baby fish from larger predators underwater, while above, the dense interlacing network of branches provides a safe nesting site for aquatic birds. Within the forest, it is not unusual to find sleeping or feeding sloth and occasionally families of monkeys may swing through the trees as you traverse the walkways lining two beautiful white sand beaches.

It is important to note that backpacks are checked at the admission gate to ensure no food items are brought in other a reusable water bottle. You will find a food kiosk and several refill stations for recyclable water bottles within the park premises. The park is not open on Tuesdays and there is no re-entry if you should leave and want to come back later the same day. Private tours accommodate 1 to 4 people in your party with no charge for children who are 5 years old or younger.

Note: This tour operator has improved wait conditions at the start of the tour during peak season, although it cannot regulate park administrated delays.
