El Bosque Night Tour is a guided tour in the forest at night with flashlights and a tour guide to help you spot sleeping birds and other animals. Even though we see a variety of animals, we’re the only night tour in Monteverde that focuses primarily on birdwatching to see up to 20 species of sleeping birds.
First, you will start with an introduction, where we will set you up with a small group led by one of our local tour guides, an expert specialized in birdwatching.
Next, we will start by walking around the open areas of the property where the forest is lower. Here we will spend about an hour finding birds sleeping in trees.
Then, we will enter the property’s nature trail system to explore and learn about this area. Here we will find a few more birds, some of the most incredible insects (like walking sticks, tarantulas, and leafcutter ants), and rare mammals (like porcupines, opossums, and olingos). And depending on the weather condition, we might even spot snakes and frogs all in their natural habitat.
Finally, we will head back to reception to wrap things up.
Note For Solo Travelers: We need at least two customers to operate this tour. We will do our best to find other travelers who can go in with you. However, if we cannot find another customer, we will contact you via email to refund you or allow you to pay for two and go on a private tour.
