Experience the rainforest like never before! As the sun sets over Mountain Top Park, a hidden world begins to stir. Our Jungle Night Tour in Manuel Antonio is designed for adventure seekers and nature lovers who want to witness the incredible biodiversity of Costa Rica after dark.
When the daylight fades, nearly 80% of the rainforest’s creatures wake up. This is your chance to see the jungle’s “night shift” in a safe, private, and breathtaking environment.
What Makes Our Night Tour Unique?
Located just a 5-minute drive from the famous Manuel Antonio National Park, our property offers a secluded and natural setting. Unlike crowded public trails, our private trails at Mountain Top Park ensure a peaceful and intimate experience with nature.
The tour begins with a spectacular Sunset View from our mountain-top vantage point. As you watch the sky change colors, our expert bilingual guides will prepare you for the journey ahead. To keep you refreshed, we also provide a delicious natural smoothie at our onsite restaurant, allowing you to relax and soak in the jungle atmosphere before or after your walk.
