FAQ's List

When should I arrive before the tour?

We suggest arriving 15-30 minutes beforehand (even earlier during high season)

Is the tour indoor or outdoor?

There are a few areas with a roof but we consider it an outdoor tour. We still have tours rain or shine, bring a rain jacket!

How many people per group?

This depends on the amount of guides we have available (they are volunteers) and how many people show up. We average 15 people per group.

Where does my money go?

Thanks to you, all of your donation fee goes directly back to the animals whether it be medical supplies, food or materials for their enclosures. There would be no rescue center without YOU!

Yes! the tour route is flat terrain and we have a wheelchair is someone needs one.

Would you like to help us more?

We are always in need of Meyenberg powdered goats milk. This product cannot be found in Costa Rica and it is nearly impossible to send to us. If you have a little extra space in your suitcase, the animals always appreciate your kind gesture! Also, you can visit our amazon checklist and find out about more products we currently need.
