The safest way to guarantee a permit for Corcovado National Park is to book at least one month in advance, as daily visitor spaces are limited. If you’re planning your trip with less notice, contact us as soon as possible so we can check current availability.
Corcovado is one of the most biodiverse places on the planet, and our certified naturalist guides have extensive experience in spotting wildlife. However, we cannot guarantee sightings of any specific species, as this experience takes place in a completely natural environment where animals are free and their behavior cannot be controlled. We encourage visitors to enjoy the tour with an open and receptive attitude toward whatever nature chooses to reveal; this way, every encounter becomes an authentic and special surprise.
This experience can be adjusted to each participant’s needs. If you are traveling with children or individuals who require special attention, we recommend choosing the private tour option, as it offers greater comfort for the visitor and allows the guide to provide more personalized attention.
Important: This activity is not recommended for people with back injuries or trauma, nor for those who are sensitive to or fearful of boat travel, as the ride can be a bit rough.
The adventure continues even in the rain. If weather conditions become unfavorable, we may temporarily pause the activity until conditions improve. However, rain in this area is often intermittent and seasonal. We recommend that visitors bring their own rain poncho and protection for electronic devices.
