***When spaces are limited in Sirena Station or the weather is not on our favor we do the tour in San Pedrillo Station.
There is certainly a lot of questions whether a corcovado tour one day option would be enough to see a lot of wildlife or if more days are required.
I would say that it is all a matter of luck and perspective since wildlife is unpredictable and it could be that you walk for the first 30 minutes and you get to see several species of animals if you are lucky.
Other point would be leaving Corcovado National Park thinking about that it would have been worth staying longer in the park to check that monkey well, to get a nice picture or just to see more therefore we have options to stay longer.
We know how important Corcovado National Parks is for you, and how much you want to enjoy it, so we do our best from answering questions to arranging everything on time you get the best out your Corcovado Tour, whether you do a 1 day tour in a group of 10 people maximum, 2 day and 1 night Corcovado tour in Sirena Station or the most booked activity by hikers, the 3 day and 2 night Corcovado tour in Sirena Ranger station.
The most important thing before booking is to get all questions sorted out so you get the option that fits your needs the most and that will make sure that you will come back with a smile at the end of your tour.
