Testimonials

Thank you for the amazing opportunity to stay at T.R.E.E.S with Save the Frogs. My daughter and I were not just luxuriously comfortable in the middle of the rainforest, but also well fed and amidst the frogs, bats, reptiles, birds, butterflies and an abundance of tropical foliage. Hopefully it will not be a one-time visit!

ChotiSave the Frogs Eco-Tour guest

In my travels to wilderness hotspots in various tropical parts of the world – West Indies, East Africa, India, Seychelles, Comoro Islands, Madagascar, New Zealand, Hawaii etc – I have come across few places that can match Toucan Ridge for sheer biodiversity that is really accessible – there is even a bus stop right there! To have rainforest pristine enough for jaguars, right next to stream and overgrown-orchard habitats, is truly exceptional. Bird netting there for just a few days in March… Read more

I just want to start off by saying this trip has been one of the best learning experiences of my life…… I am so glad and fortunate my first internship was with T.R.E.E.S……you guys are doing an astonishing job with the research station, the environment is perfect for people of all levels to learn and develop further their skills as biologists…..Because of this experience, although it was tough at times, I intend to continue my pursuit in becoming a biologist…..You guys were awesome!

It’s hard to express how much gratitude I have with a simple “thank you”, but I guess it’ll have to do. This place is an oasis in an oasis and the things I’ve learned and experienced here will last forever. Oh yeah, the food’s great and Mat and Vanessa are the best.

ConnorHerpetology InternUniversity of Texas

Having travelled to the wilder parts of Costa Rica, Brazil, Peru and Bolivia, I can say that Toucan Ridge is a tremendous destination for biology or environmental studies courses – the mix of humid tall rainforest, mist-covered hills, jungle river, second growth and low intensity citrus fields provides an amazing richness in species, habitats, and teaching opportunities. During our course, we recorded about 60 species of birds, nine species of bat, various possum and rodents, as well as 3 larg… Read more

T.R.E.E.S immediately felt like home to me thanks to the beautiful yet rugged facilities, Vanessa’s welcoming smile, and Matt’s delicious cuisine! There was always something amazing to do or see. You get both quantity and quality when it comes to experiencing true Belize ecology at the T.R.E.E.S field station. Thank you T.R.E.E.S!

BrittanyBiology StudentUniversity of New Brunswick

T.R.E.E.S is a beautiful piece of paradise. The cabins gave a lookout into the backyard jungle, and the center is open and welcoming. There were so many things to see and do! Also the food is amazing!

BaileyBiology StudentUniversity of New Brunswick

We LOVED staying at T.R.E.E.S! Very educational, excellent hospitality and food. It was an unforgettable experience and I will definitely be back! Thank you for all your hard work!!

Stacy & JaredSave the Frogs Eco-Tour guests

Thank you so, so much for everything. The food was absolutely amazing, and the facilities were great – luxury compared to the last place we stayed. Thank you for being so nice and accommodating. I could live here!!! I will miss the place. ,

After spending a week at T.R.E.E.S this past summer, I feel that I have grown as a student, a scientist, and a person with the T.R.E.E.S directors and staff’s help. So many wonderful memories made despite having to confront a lot of fears and personal limitations…I am certainly more of a “city-girl.” But I honestly did end up enjoying myself! I decided to come on this trip to challenge myself and I feel that I came out of it with even more than I was hoping for: friends, fun, once in … Read more
