Ecocentro Danaus

We took a jungle tour at 10:30am and it was incredible. We definitely recommend going with the guide. He is so knowledgeable and enthusiastic about animals! Also without him we would not have spotted 99% of the animals and birds. Middle of the day is typically not the best time to visit, but we managed to see a baby sloth and that made our entire day.

Great experience with the guide. Thanks Melvin!!! This park is natural, animals are not locked there, not a zoo. Really nice walk and opportunity to take great pictures. Strongly recommended with the guide, they can help to find animals that are trying to hide themselves.

We went on the night walk and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. We were pleased to see snakes, frogs, birds, caymen (only the eyes as it was dark) and even a sloth. It did start to rain halfway through the tour which I think reduced the amount of animals we saw. We also returned to do the self guided walk that is included when you book the night tour and I would recommend also doing this as it is different in the daytime and the butterflies were very active. I would do this again.

We had an amazing guided tour. Our guide was so knowledgeable and provided excellent insight into the insects, birds, sloths, butterflies, and everything else we came across. He provided a great education about nature and wildlife that I did not know prior to the tour. The guide was passionate about his job and the work they are doing here. Thank you for having us. This is a must-do attraction while in the La Fortuna area.

We did the Night Walk at the Ecocentro and it was really great. Our tour guide explained everything in great detail and helped us to get awesome pictures of the animals. We saw a sloth, four different kind of frogs, a snake, caimans, lizards and leave cutter ants. Also if you booked the night walk you can come back the next day for free, so that you can also find the other animals which you did not find at night. I want to mention that this is a natural habitat for the animals and no zoo. So there is no guarantee that you see every animal you are looking for but you have a good chance.

I've been 2 months in this place and the experience has been incredible. Both types of sloths can be observed, sometimes at the same time. They have a butterfly farm where you can see some of the most well-known species of butterflies. A good place to relax and learn at the same time.

Very nice and informative night jungle tour. We saw 2 sloths and so many butterflies and frogs. The tour guides were amazing.

We took a guided tour with our 12 month old and had a fantastic time. Melvin, our guide, was very friendly and knowledgeable. We saw a ton more stuff with him then we would have seen on our own so we were very glad to have the tour. Our travel stroller couldn't make it on the trail (though our full size may have been able too) but the path is flat and gentle enough that my son could walk himself or we could hold him. Melvin also helped us take some great pictures through his telescope which we really appreciated. Overall this was a great experience, especially with a toddler.
