About this tour
A guided walk through the secondary forest on Parador's grounds. Toucans, three monkey species and sloths are regular sightings.
A 90-minute guided walk on Parador's own jungle trails, led by a certified professional guide. The trails run through secondary forest, and a lot lives in it.
Toucans, parrots and macaws are regulars, and so are our three resident monkey species: squirrel, white-faced and howler monkeys. Look for two-toed and three-toed sloths, iguanas and other local animals. With luck you may see a Caucel, a wildcat of the puma family, moving through the shadows.
