Children: Minimum age is 4 years old. Children ages 4 to 11 years old pay a discounted rate. Children 3 and under free with 2 paying adults.
Restrictions: This tour of the Palo Verde National Park is great for all ages and activity levels. There is minimum walking on uneven territory and you will need to be able to climb in and out of the boat. But other than that, this is a great option for multi-generational families traveling together.
Insider Tip: We love this option for a great way to get up close to nature, especially departing from Papagayo hotels. It is also great for all activity levels since most of the exploring is by boat. And we cannot recommend enough to bring a little cash to pick up even a small piece of pottery in Guaitil. It will be the most unique souvenir you will find in the region.
** PLEASE NOTE: Due to the strictly enforced sales tax law that has been introduced in Costa Rica, sales tax may be added to the final payment made to the operator. Sales tax is already included in the deposit amount.
