This 2-day Corcovado tour begins in Puerto Jiménez, the southern gateway to some of Corcovado National Park’s most adventurous routes. The standard experience is boat in / boat out, giving you a smoother way to reach Sirena Station and spend one night inside the park. If you want a more physically demanding route, a walk-in option can be requested when conditions, timing, and park logistics allow it.
Spending one night in Sirena gives the trip a stronger rhythm than a simple day tour. You can explore the rainforest during better observation windows, slow down between hikes, and let your guide connect the forest’s signs — tracks, calls, movement, behavior, and habitat — into a richer Corcovado experience.
Wildlife is wild — sightings can’t be guaranteed. This itinerary improves your chances by giving you time in Sirena and the best hiking hours.
