We booked via our hotel the night tour in the jungle with the Arenal Zoo. Wauw, how cool was that! 4 Hours in the jungle, we found snakes, all kinds of insects including a not so friendly looking tarantula. We can recommend this to anyone!!! They luckily provide you with boots, as the paths were muddy. One of the best excursions we've done in Costa Rica!!!Even thou we came back late from the nightwalk, the restaurant had stayed open for us. The chef is crazy about food, loves cooking and that shows. The food was fresh, interesting, sufficient and not more expensive than anywhere else. The next evening we went back for a second meal with them. The steak is so soft and tender, and the chicken is fab! We ended up having a shot of local rum with the owner of the Zoo. All in all an excellent experience!

I've been to the Eco Zoo several times now and with each visit I always learn something new! The staff are incredibly knowledgable and the array of snakes is awesome - some of which you even get to hold! Frogs and turtles and more! A whole room of spiders, which I have managed to avoid every time :)

Each family or group gets there own guide. There are numerous examples of the local snakes and there are lots of them. There are some turtles and a crocodile. In addition there is a small butterfly enclosure. The guide seemed very knowledgeable and was very much into his task. Coast $20 USD and would recommend

Luis was our guide and amazing. He took the time with every section and answered any questions we would have. He was engaging. It was a great hands on experience and loved holding the red eyed frog which is so beautiful! I could have spent all day watching him. Great value for money, entrance only $20 for 1.5-2 hr tour with guide. Thanks!!!!!

Great explanations, deceivingly larger than first appears, fun 'wearing' snakes and other hands-on experiences. Decent restaurant too.

We split up the day we visited this attraction, so we only had my youngest son, a real budding biologist. Our tour guide, Victor, was a very thoughtful and soft spoken young man who really took his time to ensure my son had a great time. One very obvious advantage of Costa Rican attractions is the ability to get up close to the action and this is no different. He let my son hold a Rainbow Boa for about 20 minutes - all while showing us other animals in other exhibits. He also let us hold some very cool spaghetti snakes. The topper was showing us a venemous frog that had gone out of sight from the display. Victor basically opened up the display, grabbed the frog, and held it to show us. A far cry from NA zoos where if you can't see the animal, move on. The zoo is much larger than one can see in the front. This was a very fun, informative low key thing to do.

This is a great zoo if you like reptiles! We saw everything from crocodiles and alligators to turtles, frogs, and snakes of all kinds. You can even hold some of the snakes if you want. We had a great tour guide and enjoyed seeing and learning about all the different species that exist in this area of the world.

Wow I was really surprised to find such an educational tour in this area. They have a good inventory of snakes and others, and the guide gave us a very nice tour through the facilities. We had nice refreshments overlooking the lush forest. I glad we stopped by. I would truly recommend this place.

My son loves snakes so this was a must do. The price was fair. Our guide spoke English very well. The tour was very educational. we all held a small Boa, a Red eye frog and a turtle. We saw a sloth very close up too. ;). We are pizza in the restaurant there which was very good. If you have a snake/reptile lover in the group this is great!

Our guide picked us up at the hotel. He was well spoken, with an MBA but a passion for the forest. He led our family at an appropriate pace, lecturing where there was interest or just letting people stare at the tarantulas or other intriguing species. This is not a full day trip so plan an afternoon activity. If you do not like snakes, bugs or spiders you should not go.
