Great Experience - Extremely Knowledgeable Guide - This was a fantastic experience, on the 8pm night tour we got to see plenty of animals including pit vipers, snakes, spiders, birds and insects. Jason was an amazing guide- he was very kind to take pictures and share many facts about the animals. I highly recommend this!

Customer Service was GREAT! - We weren’t able to attend due to the weather that day (very windy) and the fact that we have little kids, including a baby. Customer service was responsive and refunded us which we were very appreciative of.

Best guide for Monteverde Cloud Forest - Jason did a great job finding animals and explaining the forest ecosystem. He used his spotting scope to get us up close pictures of animals. We had great conversations with him. He is the best guide we have had so far on this trip!

Night Hike Monteverde 10/10 - The Night Hike at the Wildlife Refuge was one of my favorite moments of my first trip to Costa Rica. My guide Jason Rojas was great at showing us the animals that were invisible to the naked eye. I loved hiking in the woods at night with our flashlights. I would highly recommend this experience to anyone visiting Monteverde. I would do it all over again!

An amazing hike in the cloud forest! - We had a great hike with our guide Jason. Quetzal, spider monkey, hummingbirds in their nests and tarantula sightings to name a few were highlights. Jason was personable and easy to talk to and we learned many things about the cloud forest and Monteverde flora and fauna. Highly recommended.

This is a must-do - Our guide, Jason, was incredibly well-informed, thoughtful, and accommodating. The Cloud Forest is a beautiful area. However, I have no doubt we would not have seen ANY of the things Jason pointed out if we were on our own. The small group size was nice too. My only complaint, and it has nothing to do with the tour, is the shuttle service. Their is one mini bus from the parking lot to the entrance. We just missed it due to their capacity limitations and had to wait 20 additional minutes for it to return. As a result we missed the start of the tour. We hiked on our own for almost an hour before we found our group. (We didn't have cell service to call our guide.) When we did find Jason, he made sure to point out the highlights we missed as the opportunity arose. And, when we did have phone service again, we saw that he had tried to contact us a few times. This was a true highlight of our 10 day trip.

Fun and interesting tour with a good guide. - We did the morning tour with Jason and learned a lot about the nature and animals we saw. He always knew the answer to our questions. We really enjoyed the tour with Jason and can only recommend him! Jason is a friendly guide who knows a lot and speaks English well.
