About this experience
Sloth Night Tour – A Family-Friendly Wildlife Experience
If seeing a sloth in the wild is at the top of your Costa Rica bucket list, this is the experience you’ve been looking for.
Unlike traditional night walks that focus on a little bit of everything, our tour is specially designed for families who want the best opportunity to observe wild two-toed sloths in their natural nighttime habitat. As darkness falls, these fascinating animals become much more active, creating unforgettable wildlife encounters.
Led by a certified naturalist guide, you’ll explore easy and safe rainforest trails while learning about sloth behavior, rainforest ecology, and the incredible creatures that share their habitat. Along the way, you may also discover colorful frogs, sleeping birds, insects, lizards, snakes, and other nocturnal wildlife.
