Customer Reviews

Good boat tour of the mangroves
(tripadvisor)
2023-11-27
5 minute or less ride from the Diria, it starts where the river starts. We didn't see any crocodiles, but saw lots of birds, crabs, and monkeys on the walk. We went in the morning, it was very hot if in the sun. It has a shade canopy, but with the angle of the sun and what side of the boat your are sitting on., you may be in the sun until you get into the mangroves. The boat goes slow on the way there, so not much of a breeze. Bring bug repellant and something you could pour water on to use to cool off. The guide cut pineapple on the way back on boat, which was nice!
Great Estuary Boat Safari

Luis, our guide was excellent and had great knowledge about the nature and animals we encountered during the trip. We were able to see the mangrove forest and went up into some of the smaller channels of the river to get up close and personal with the forest. We saw crocodiles, crabs, howler monkeys, iguanas and many birds. We had cold water and delicious fruit too for the journey. It was a slow, relaxing tour and we had good sun protection from the canvas roof of the boat. Definitely worth checking it out!
Great Tour

The tour was a lot of fun, we saw two crocodiles, a bunch of brirds and did a small walk on land to see some monkeys. The guide was super nice and explained a lot about the local environment and animals. Definitely bring bug spray and enjoy!
