Why choose us for your Costa Rica bird-watching adventure?
We want you to be clear about what we offer — which we believe is outstanding. We frequently hear horror stories from people who say, "We wish we'd known about you before" — people who have had experiences that were uncomfortable and even fairly unpleasant, or where they ended up with unnecessarily strained backs from the use of inappropriate or cheap equipment.
Please compare us to other companies you may find. And feel free to contact us if there is any other information you need. If you are considering another company, don't be shy about requiring they give you information you want - e.g. How large are your groups?
Unfortunately, anyone can call themselves a kayak company or a kayak expert.

Maximum of 6 clients per guide!
We can ensure your safety and comfort, answer your questions and give you individual attention to help you have an unforgettable experience.
Normally we split into groups of 4 to 6, each guide taking their own group. If you have a larger group that you want to bring, that is no problem... but you'll still have that outstanding ratio of 6 clients (or less!) per guide.

REAL single kayaks...
This is by far the most comfortable way to go. Each person will have their own single kayak worth several thousand dollars (Necky, Nimbus, Seaward).
We have a wide range of kayaks, so you'll be comfortable, large or small. We do have some double kayaks for those who prefer.

Kayaking guides...
Our staff are not just kayaking experts, but also experts in leading groups and guiding. We have been leading tours in British Columbia since 1985 and in Costa Rica since 1987.

Qualified in Wilderness First Aid
It's extremely unlikely that anything will ever go wrong. In fact, we have never had any kind of serious accident. But, you'll probably feel better knowing you have the security of the highest level of first aid qualification available.
