Manakin tours is a 100% Costa Rican company, created by Douglas Morales and his family, all locals from the Nicoya Peninsula. They are passionate about mother nature and her creations, and aim to educate, protect, and encourage sustainability on the peninsula. Douglas explains the name of his company, “Manakin is a bird species found on the Nicoya peninsula and like all of us, this bird has been here for generations. Our grandfathers were some of the original founders of this peninsula and it is a privilege to take visitors around the area to learn the local history and first steps of our ancestors in this important sector of Costa Rica.”
