PRIVATE WILDLIFE EXPERIENCE IN GUANACASTE

Private Sloth & Wildlife Rainforest Tour from Liberia, Costa Rica

See sloths, monkeys, toucans, scarlet macaws, and tropical wildlife in their natural habitat — guided privately by Andrés, with 26+ years of local wildlife knowledge.

A DIFFERENT KIND OF WILDLIFE TOUR

This is not a zoo.
This is wildlife in its natural rhythm.

In Guanacaste, biodiversity lives between forests, rivers, wetlands, and hidden ecological corridors that most visitors drive past without noticing.

Andrés has spent decades learning where sloths sleep, where scarlet macaws return every afternoon, and how wildlife behavior changes with the seasons, weather, and time of day.

Because this experience is fully private and flexible, the day adapts to your interests — whether you want photography, family-friendly encounters, birdwatching, or simply the joy of seeing Costa Rica’s wildlife naturally and respectfully.
