A captivating journey through Costa Rica's most diverse and iconic wildlife habitats. From the lush Caribbean forests of Tirimbina to the misty cloud forests of Monteverde, the expansive and biodiverse Guanacaste region, and the stunning Pacific Coast, this tour offers unparalleled opportunities to observe a remarkable array of wildlife. Witness sloths, monkeys, tapirs, and even jaguars in their natural habitats. The tour pace is moderate, with ample time for exploration and wildlife observation in each location.
Epic megafauna like Jaguar and Baird’s Tapir, along with the various sloths and monkeys and even the rarely seen Silky Anteater. To boot we will be traveling with a bat biologist who will show us many roosting species of bats in the forests and caves and even in the hand while mist netting under permit for his scientific research. A very special opportunity indeed!
The tour covers habitats including Caribbean forests, cloud forests, dry forests, rainforests, and mangroves.
The climate ranges from tropical humid to temperate in the cloud forests.

The tour guide Jehudy Carballo was excellent - extremely knowledgeable and nice. Even the driver Pablo was knowledgeable about birds and together they worked very well. I would definitely recommend this tour - all the lodges were amazing, the schedule was very well organized and food was delicious. We saw so many birds, it was absolutely amazing!
I can say it was a great tour. Forrest and Richard were fantastic leaders. I would bird with them anywhere.
Bobby Wilcox was a good guide. Calm and knowledgeable. The food and accommodation were both very good, Better than I expect.
Super tour and the excellent guiding services were made even better by the presence of our driver who could be a bird guide in his own right.
This was a seriously enjoyable tour. To be fair though it would be hard to NOT enjoy a bird tour to this lovely country. Still the accommodation was good, Jehudy kept a diverse group interested and coordinated with his high level of expertise, responsiveness to individual needs and great birding knowledge—And the birds just kept coming.
