Great night tour with Mauricio! - The night tour led by Mauricio was a great time. My wife and I got to see many creatures at night that you would not have the chance to see in daylight - such as fireflies, frogs, and tarantulas. Our guide was friendly and knowledgable, answering all our questions. It was a great way to take in our first night in Monteverde and would highly recommend this experience.

A great way to explore the forest! - We loved the tour. Our guide, Ulman, was considerate to what people in our group wanted to see, or not (one of our group wished to avoid spiders), as he guided us through the forest. It was very entertaining and informative. We are happy with all the wildlife he was able to help us spot. He also was good to inform other groups about where we spotted wildlife so they could see it as well.

We highly recommend this... - We highly recommend this tour to anyone seeking adventure. Brandon was our tour guide and he was funny, informative and made our kids feel relaxed about hiking in the dark. We would not have been able to spot any of the animals or insects on our own. Ask for Brandon if you decide to book this tour.
