Overview
Looking for a truly special experience in La Fortuna? Step into a world where nature and tradition come together in perfect harmony: the Sloth Observation Tour. It’s perfect for families, couples, or anyone who loves wildlife and wants to connect with Costa Rican culture.
The adventure begins on a scenic 1.5 km trail, where you’ll step into the quiet, magical world of sloths. With the guidance of an expert, you’ll have the chance to observe these adorable two- and three-toed creatures as they lounge in the treetops, all while learning about their unique routines. Thanks to the incredible reforestation efforts at Las Mariolas trails, this area has become a peaceful haven for sloths, just a stone’s throw from La Fortuna’s center.
But that’s not all—this tour goes beyond the wildlife! After the trail, you’ll meet the lovely Doña Elith, who will welcome you with open arms to share a slice of Costa Rican tradition. She’ll guide you in the art of making traditional tortillas (and yes, you get to taste them fresh off the griddle!). You’ll also get to sample refreshing, artisanal sugarcane juice, made right there. Plus, her medicinal plant garden offers a glimpse into local remedies and the close relationship between nature and culture here.
It’s the perfect blend of wildlife, culture, and connection—leaving you with beautiful memories and maybe even a newfound tortilla-making skill!
So, what do you say? Join us and discover the charm of La Fortuna, one sloth (and tortilla) at a time! 🦥🌿✨
