Tour Description

 

After we pick you up from your hotel, you will enjoy of a scenic drive from the Central Valley (San Jose), to the Central Pacific Region (Puntarenas), until you reach the famous and green Monteverde Cloud Forest area, nestled at 4,662 ft above the sea level. On the way there, we make a few fun stops for you to experience some of our culture, like stopping at the typical town of Orotina; we also visit one of the large fruit stands for you to learn about the different varieties of fruits we have in Costa Rica; and we stop in a place where we normally see white faced capuchin monkeys, among other seasonal stops.  Once we get to Monteverde, we’ll take you to one of the famous reserves, where your bilingual guide will tell you about the magnificent variety of flora and fauna of this rare eco-system called Cloud Forest. The distinctive weather conditions of the Monteverde Cloud Forest make it suitable for thousands of plants (over 2500 species) and animals (more than 100 species of mammals, 400 species of birds and tens of thousands of insect species), many of them not found anywhere else on Earth.

​

* IMPORTANT NOTES:

For those who are afraid of heights and would prefer to visit one of the Monteverde Cloud Forest Reserve with ground trails only, we can include a walk at the Santa Elena Cloud Forest Reserve instead of the visit to the hanging bridges.
