What people are saying about Monteverde

Amazing time walking through the forest at night, seeing the different insects and having the guides search for them. It was amazing just to see wildlife outside of a television screen, and have a guide that was very knowledgeable about each insect and animal that we came across. 100% would do it again, and I've already been recommending it to others.

Very enjoyable evening walk . It was very windy so birds etc where fairly quiet but guide was very knowledgeable and knew what to look out for. We saw a number of things such as Tarantulas, snakes, birds and some amazing huge unusual trees ! Good atmosphere at night.

The guide was wonderful. We saw sloths,tarantulas,and birds. I was amazed how big the trees were. We were a party of 5 and everyone enjoyed the hike. I highly recommended this adventure.

Wonderful experience! Our guide Juan, was so knowledgeable and really cares about the environment and the animals. We saw heaps during the walk and were so glad we did it!

It was really fun and we saw a lot of animals. Had a great guide who found everything. I can only recommend
