Description

Explore the heart of Corcovado National Park on a private day tour to the Sirena Biological Station (max. 2 people), one of the most biodiverse places on the planet. The adventure starts early, at 5:15 a.m., from our office in Puerto Jiménez, where your certified naturalist tour guide will welcome you. From there, you will board the transportation to Sirena, sailing through the calm waters of the Golfo Dulce and then across the Pacific Ocean. As this is a private experience, you will enjoy fully personalized attention, greater flexibility in the pace of the hike, and a deeper connection with nature. It's important to note that this trip is on the open ocean, so conditions may vary. On some days, the trip can be very comfortable; however, at other times, it can be bumpy and challenging, especially for people who are not used to sailing. The waves may even splash water during the trip. It's important to consider this information before booking, as it's part of the experience required to reach this remote area of the park. You disembark directly onto the beach, as there is no wharf. You will need to walk through the water to the shore (sometimes knee-deep). After passing the park rangers' checkpoint, you'll begin a guided hike along primary and secondary rainforest trails, home to an impressive diversity of wildlife such as tapirs, howler monkeys, white-headed capuchins, spider monkeys, squirrel monkeys, scarlet macaws, toucans, sloths, colorful frogs, and many other species. (Remember that the animals are in the wild, so sightings cannot be guaranteed). Thanks to the private nature of the sightseeing tour, you can move at your own pace, spend more time on sightings, and enjoy a much more exclusive experience. Your tour guide will interpret the signs of the forest and share detailed information about the ecosystems, the history of the park, and conservation efforts. Around 11:30 AM, there will be a break at the Sirena Station, where you can use the restrooms and enjoy lunch. This time also allows you to rest for approximately 30 minutes before continuing your exploration. This sightseeing tour is ideal for those who want to have an authentic and exclusive experience in Corcovado, returning the same day without having to stay overnight. To guarantee your place in the park, you must book in advance. We recommend that you only confirm when you are sure you will take the sightseeing tour, as spaces managed with the National Park are non-refundable. This way, we all contribute to a responsible and truly Pura Vida experience.
