Many local landowners in the surrounding area have converted their properties into palm plantations. Our reserve is one of the few that kept its original rainforest, protected by the same family for generations. This makes the night walk truly authentic, with real wildlife in a natural ecosystem guided by a certified ICT naturalist.

    An incredible night hike

    My husband and I were able to book this night hike with little notice and yet, we had terrific communication with the tour guide leading up to the meeting spot. The meeting spot is super easy to find (we had own transportation) and Andres promptly met us there. It was clear upon initial conversation with him that he is incredibly knowledgeable! On the way out to the finca he stopped to show us yellow throated toucans and pointed out other sounds we were hearing. Upon arrival at the finca, Andres fitted us with boots, we were able to use the bathroom and then we headed out on the adventure. While nature is unpredictable, we saw so many things including spiders, a basilik lizard, a heron, kinkajou, several frogs, frog eggs, a salamander some other reptiles and to finish the hike a beautiful sky with stars out! We received cold water and refreshing fruit at the en of our hike. Andres was able to share information with us about the history of the land as well as information about the creatures we were seeing. We had lots of questions and he was super patient in answering all of them. This night hike offers an ability to be away from crowds and to have a real authentic Costa Rican hike in the natural surroundings. Would highly recommend this tour to anyone who wants an experience out of the ordinary!

    Amazing Night Tour in Manuel Antonio

    I really enjoyed this night tour in Manuel Antonio. Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable and passionate, and he explained everything in a very clear and engaging way. The forest at night was truly impressive and we were able to see many frogs, insects, and even a small opossum family. It rained a little, but nothing major, and the guide always made sure everyone felt safe and comfortable. The group was small, which made the experience feel very personal and enjoyable. I loved this tour and would definitely do it again.

    Response from the operator: ¡Gracias, Ramón, por compartir tu experiencia! Nos alegra saber que disfrutaste del tour nocturno y que el guía hizo tu visita memorable. Es fantástico que la naturaleza te haya sorprendido tanto. ¡Te esperamos para otra aventura!

    Excellent experience

    The night tour was an amazing experience. From the beginning, the guide showed extensive knowledge and a great willingness to answer questions, which made the tour even more interesting. We had the opportunity to observe animals that only appear at night and learn fascinating details about their behavior. The walk was safe, well organized and full of surprises. Undoubtedly, an activity highly recommended for those who want to experience nature from another perspective.

    Response from the operator: ¡Gracias, Johan! Nos alegra mucho saber que disfrutaste del tour nocturno y de los detalles únicos que ofrece. Seguiremos esforzándonos para brindar experiencias inolvidables en contacto con la naturaleza. ¡Esperamos verte pronto en otra aventura!

    Jungle Night Walk: questions travelers ask

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

    How much does Jungle Night Walk 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 Walk take?

    +

    Plan for about 2 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 Walk worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 59 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 3 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Quepos, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Jungle Night Walk?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Jungle Night Walk suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Jungle Night Walk?

    +

    Around 1 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-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Jungle Night Walk 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 Full Day Waterfall Adventure, Manuel Antonio Canopy Tour - Longest Twin Zip Line in Central America, Manuel Antonio Park Tour and its Amazing Wildlife and Beaches. 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.

    What is included in Jungle Night Walk?

    +

    Included: Drinking water; Entry to private forest reserve; and Certified ICT naturalist guide (English and Spanish). Not included: Transportation; and Meals or snacks. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Where is the meeting point for Jungle Night Walk?

    +

    Meet at the roadside next to the Quepos cemetery on the Quepos → Pueblo Anita road. This is the area with the strongest phone signal. Your guide will be waiting there on an ATV. Once you arrive. Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.

    What languages is Jungle Night Walk offered in?

    +

    It is offered in English and Spanish. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.

    Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Jungle Night Walk?

    +

    Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.

    Is Jungle Night Walk wheelchair or stroller accessible?

    +

    The operator notes: Not recommended for pregnant travelers. If accessibility is critical, contact the operator after booking to confirm arrangements for your date.

    What happens to Jungle Night Walk if the weather is bad?

    +

    This experience depends on good weather. If it is canceled because of poor weather, you are offered a different date or a full refund.

    What do travelers say about Jungle Night Walk?
