Please take the guided tour and ask for Elias...he is WONDERFUL. If available, also attend the indigenous tribe lecture - well worth the time. (Know that the road into this delightful sanctuary is a bit on the rough side but don't turn around...you are NOT lost...you will soon see the signs up in the trees on the right !) Our group was fortunate to participate in the rescue of a mother sloth when she fell clutching her baby and couldn't get turned over...she and baby were fine and watching her climb back into her safe place became the most memorable moment of our entire two week adventure...if not my entire life!! Not a dry eye in the bunch!

My mother and I thoroughly enjoyed our Xmas morning walk with Mario at the Ecocenter. After a bit of an uphill hike the day before, we (and our legs) were quite happy to stroll along the flat, well-kept trails in this lovely reserve. Sure, you could do the walk by yourself—but then you would most definitely miss most of what we got to see, which included iguanas, caimans, owls, agouti, a two-toed sloth, boat-billed herons, leaf cutter ants, a woodpecker, and many many gorgeous, colorful song birds. Mario was a fount of knowledge and really took the time to make sure we had a great experience.
If you are serious about your nature, not in any rush, and want to learn more about the flora and fauna in this beautiful country, then Mom and I definitely recommend this tour!
