Guided rainforest tour , Tortuguero Costa Rica
The guides at Turtle Beach Lodge are happy to lead a tour for guests by day or night. The tours are very different at these two times. Some jungle wildlife is out only by day, while others prefer the night. Consider both during your stay with us. It is always advised to take a guided tour in the jungle before you meander there alone. Our guides explain the layout of the trails, the way the jungle environment works together, they help you spot wildlife, and give you smart safety tips for when you roam the trails without them.
