About this experience
Whether you are a beginner or an expert, a local guide who is a true bird enthusiast accompanies you. Before the tour, we coordinate a personal meeting with your assigned guide to understand what you hope to see, so the experience is built around you.
You explore trails that cross seven different life zones, from lush tropical rainforest to montane forest, listening for birdsong as your guide shares their knowledge of Monteverde’s birds.
Some species are seasonal, and the weather and time of day affect what you see, so come prepared.
