Rainmaker Reserve
Rainmaker is a private rainforest reserve located at the foot of the mountains just outside of Manuel Antonio. Your naturalist guide will take you on a hike alongside a pristine river and up a trail until you reach the mountain top which offers a beautiful view all the way back to the Pacific Ocean.
You will then continue across a series of suspension bridges which gives you the opportunity to explore the majesty of the forest canopy from a bird’s eye view.
Rainmaker is teeming with a huge variety of birds, insects, and amphibians and also boasts a couple of beautiful waterfalls in which you will have the opportunity to take a refreshing dip! A delicious home-cooked, typical Costa Rican lunch is provided as part of the tour.

What guests say
We visited Manuel Antonio Park on a private tour with Minor as our guide. He was truly dedicated and fascinating to listen to. He taught us so much and showed us various animals—all with a cheerful attitude! He made the experience fantastic by adapting to our preferred language; he can speak English, Spanish, and even French. A 10/10 experience with Minor!
This place is straight out of a movie. I will say they have some high standards to get in, but for good reason. I would suggest getting there early and beware of the monkeys, but this place was a photographers dream. Start the day with a tour and then chill at the beach. I would suggest Steve Tours Private Tours, worth every penny.
A destination you have to plan to visit. Stunning National park that you could visit local animals in their habitat. If you are lucky you will see the mama sloth! And many monkeys. There is beautiful beach at the end of hike, so make sure to pack for it. You need to buy entrance tickets upfront and there is no food allowed inside. It’s closing at 3pm! So make sure to plan for the hikes accordingly.
