We loved getting to meet and hear about all the sloths. Our guide was very knowledgeable and got us some good pictures for us. They are doing a wonderful job helping the injured and abandoned sloths.… Full review by Cindy S

Disappointing experience, especially compared to the recent visit to the Jaguar Sanctuary nearby. Two rooms with cages, static monologue, which was informative but lacked enthusiasm and real life sto… Full review by RossiSetchi

I believe that is for the experience of behind the scenes feeding the babies in the morning. We just paid the standard fee for the hour tour and thought it was great. Canoe tour wasnt opeerating due to COVID but we were still happy with the price for what we got. Would recommend also visiting the Jaguar rescue centre down the road in Perto Viejo. Loads of baby sloths sadly but soooo cute.
I don't recall the actual amount, but I can say it was well worth the expense. We had a fine tour with very knowledgeable staff and learned quite a bit about slots. It was a chance to see …

We want to visit the sloth sanctuary, but want to know what available transportation out of Limon is there to either La fortuna, or Manuel Antonio? We want to fly from San José to Limón, then explore the rest of Costa Rica. Would love any recommendations. Thanks

i'm sure a taxi from the airport would be extremely costly - it's a several hour drive. I can't confirm, as we rented a car. there may be buses - a quick google search will assist. as for the price of the tours, there are a few options. the website has them all listed and is accurately descriptive of what's included
Is the 'behind-the-scenes' tour really worth the steep increase in price? My kid & I love sloths & seeing babies would be cool but I'm not sure if it's truly worth that much. What say ye?

Absolutely! It’s the only way to see the baby sloths and spending time in the nursery watching them was my favorite part!! How often do you have an opportunity like this? Also I read that powdered goats milk is very hard for them to acquire (idk why) and they need it to feed the babies. I brought 2 cans and got a big hug from the owner. I ordered it on amazon Meyenberg is a good brand. It was $10 or $15 per can.
