Experience the serenity of Tortuguero’s hidden canals at your own pace. This tour is designed for those seeking a deeper connection with nature, away from the hum of motors. Whether you choose a kayak or a canoe, you will glide through narrow waterways where wildlife is often most active and undisturbed.

Which one is right for you? While both tours explore the same lush ecosystems and last approximately 2.5 hours, they offer slightly different experiences.
Kayak (Single or Double): Ideal for adventurers who want more independence and a “closer-to-the-water” feel. We offer both individual and tandem kayaks for couples or friends.
Guided Canoe: Perfect for those who want a shared experience. Our guide leads the way in a stable vessel that can carry up to 6 people. You’ll help with the paddling, but the guide handles the navigation.
