About this experience

Once the sun sets in the Costa Rican rainforest, we start hiking and looking for exiting species of animals while the jungle takes on a totally different character. It goes from a green cathedral-like forest, where beautiful shining blue morpho butterflies fly along small rivers, to a pitch-black jungle, filled with the sounds of millions of insects and dozens of frogs & toads. It is the same green fascinating forest, but now it´s dark and you are ready to go find what’s out there! It’s the best time to find, observe and photograph beautiful tree frogs, shy snakes, colorful insects, mammals and other rainforest creatures that only come out at night. The beautiful symphony of a tropical rainforest at night is one of the most exiting experiences; turn off the lights for a moment and listen to all the secret sounds. Be aware, it is quite an adventure to be in the rainforest at night.

Unforgettable walk through the jungle by night.

We had an absolutely remarkable experience. First of all, organisation (pick up, etc) was perfect. The atmosphere during this night walk was something we will not forget. Danny our guide showed us lots of animals: various frogs, snakes, spiders, a caiman and a racoon. This activity is something one should not miss.

Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your kind words! We’re thrilled to hear you enjoyed the chocolate and coffee tour and had a great experience with our team. It means a lot to us that you found the tour both fun and informative. We truly appreciate your recommendation and hope to welcome you again soon. Pura Vida!

Quick night tour with great guide!

Aaron was a great tour guide for our last minute booking. His ability to spot wildlife was really impressive, as we wouldn't have noticed 10% of what he found. He was able to spot spiders, a scorpion, a number of different frogs, 2 caimans, lizards, iguanas, birds, and more. He kept us engaged and well informed along the way.

Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re delighted to hear that our guide made the experience engaging and enjoyable for your whole family. It’s great to know you loved the cacao experience, the coffee, the sugar cane drink, and the lunch as well. We truly appreciate your kind words and hope to welcome you all again in the future! 🍫✨

An eye for details

This was a great experience. We got so many beautiful pictures. I would recommend this to everyone. A whole different perspective from our day hike. Guide was very good at finding small hidden gems.

Response from the operator: Thank you for joining our Night Walk! We’re glad you enjoyed this unique nighttime experience. We truly appreciate your feedback and hope to welcome you again soon.

Interesting tour seeing lots of frogs, bird, spiders and a sleeping sloth

Interesting tour, lovely guide showing us frogs, scorpion, found a sleeping sloth on the tree, and a snake in the very end . This tour is outside Manuel Antonio park which closes at 4 pm , on a nice nearby coco plantation with a pond Really interesting and enjoyable

Response from the operator: Thank you for sharing your experience! 🐸🦥🐍 We’re so happy you enjoyed the tour and got to see such amazing wildlife. The location really makes it special, and it’s great you had such a memorable time with the guide. We hope you’ll join us again for more adventures in Costa Rica! 🌿✨

Awesome Experience!

HIGHLY recommend this Jungle Night Tour!! Saw several types of frogs, a big scorpion, vine snake, and the highlight - a Velvet (Terciopelos or Fer-de-lance). Our guide, Sergio, was awesome! Be prepared for weather - we went 5/15/25 (start of rainy season) and it poured most of the tour. It was so worth the puddles in our shoes!

Response from the operator: Hello dear Kelly thanks for this nice comment we are glad to hear you hit the jackpots after seeing this amazing snake in the jungle. Please dont forget to recommend us to all your friends and family traveling down here to Costa Rica.

Jungle Night Tour Manuel Antonio: questions travelers ask

Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Quepos.

How much does Jungle Night Tour Manuel Antonio cost?

+

Prices start at $45 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Quepos usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

How long does Jungle Night Tour Manuel Antonio take?

+

Plan for about 2.7 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Quepos is not rushed.

Is Jungle Night Tour Manuel Antonio worth it?

+

It holds an Outty Ranking of 69 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 43 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable culture & history in Quepos, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

Can I cancel or reschedule Jungle Night Tour Manuel Antonio?

+

No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.

Is Jungle Night Tour Manuel Antonio suitable for kids and families?

+

The operator sets a minimum age of 3. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 2.7-hour running time when deciding.

How far in advance should I book Jungle Night Tour Manuel Antonio?

+

Around 15 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Quepos can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

What should I bring or wear?

+

Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Quepos and add a light layer if any part of the 2.7-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

Where does Jungle Night Tour Manuel Antonio start and how do I get there?

+

The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Quepos within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

What are the best things to do in Quepos?

+

On Outty we rank every Quepos experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Whitewater Rafting Savegre Class II-III plus Waterfall Manuel Antonio, Manuel Antonio Canopy Tour - Longest Twin Zip Line in Central America, Waterfall Ziplining & Canyoning. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

When is the best time to visit Quepos?

+

Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

How many days do you need in Quepos?

+

Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

+

Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
