The Most Biodiverse Place in the World | Manuel Antonio, Costa Rica
We got to see SLOTHS! and HOWLER MONKEYS! and so so many more animals...
Today we're exploring Costa Rica's Manuel Antonio National Park! We decided to get a guide because we've heard that they are absolutely essential to seeing the most wildlife - and WOW was it worth it. At the end we both agreed that it was THE BEST guided tour either of us have ever had and would encourage any and everyone to do the same.

Make sure you watch to the end to hear how close the howler monkeys were to our AirBNB!

yeah... our guide was telling us at the time that some white-faced capuchins will eat other monkeys and he once saw one eating a baby sloth... 😭
Hey guys! I am backpacking through Costa Rica in 2 weeks and I must say, you videos and editing are amazing! I was convinced you were a popular travel channel until I looked at your subscriber counts and I could not believe it! Keep it up, i would not be surprised to see your subscribers go in the hundreds of thousands! I was wondering, do you have the link for the Airbnb tour? I would love to book one with Alvin :)

Wow, that's an enormous compliment!!! Thank you for your kind words, you really made our day!! Also, I meant to put his link in the description, so thank you for the reminder. This should take you directly to his Airbnb tour: www.airbnb.com/experiences/1993561 Let us know if you end up going on it! We would love to hear about your experience!
The monkeys are fun. We saw them stealing water bottles from people. We had a great time during our 5 weeks. Lots of videos to post now! Best of luck in your travels!
