🌿 Two Wildlife Adventures in One Day
Discover the magic of Arenal’s rainforest from day to night with this wildlife combo tour that combines two of Costa Rica’s most authentic nature experiences — the Sloth Tour with Callidryas and the Jungle Night Walk at Arenal Oasis.
Start your adventure in the afternoon with Callidryas Tours, the pioneer company that created the original sloth tour in Costa Rica. Guided by certified naturalists, explore the lush landscapes of La Fortuna, where both the two-toed and three-toed sloths live freely in the trees. Enjoy guaranteed sightings as your expert guide helps you spot these gentle creatures and other rainforest residents such as toucans, monkeys, hummingbirds, and the colorful red and blue poison dart frog.
As the sun sets, the rainforest transforms — and your second adventure begins. Join the Jungle Night Walk at Arenal Oasis, home to the region’s only wild frog sanctuary. Equipped with a flashlight, follow your guide along flat trails surrounded by the sounds of nature at night. Watch as tree frogs, glass frogs, and dart frogs emerge beside crystal-clear spring-fed ponds, while nocturnal species like sloths, owls, and armadillos come out to explore.
This immersive day-and-night combo offers a complete encounter with Arenal’s extraordinary biodiversity, perfect for travelers who want to experience the rainforest’s vibrant life from sunrise to moonlight.
