Monteverde cloud forest tour - Roy was excellent! We had a great time. Thoroughly recommend you using his tour. We saw lots of birds and animals. A great day!

Beautiful morning hike - We loved our hike in the Cloud Forest. Eduardo was our guide (we set up our guide through our VRBO - Campo Azul) and he was fantastic! We saw three quetzals at the end of our walk (2 males and 1 female). We also saw a lot of hummingbirds and orchids. Learning about the history of the area was great. Definitely book a guide for a better experience!

Must do tour. Do it first thing in the morning! - Loved it. Must do We went in the afternoon, shops have going in the morning for better bird watching. Afternoon is Siesta time for animals as well

amazing tour with amazing guide - they recommended us to hike the curi-cancha reserve as there is more wildlife to spot. Our guide Roy was very attentive and friendly. He is a truly expert with the flora and fauna in this region! He knew a answer on all questions we asked. Would recommend it allday!

Great experience - Friendly, knowledgeable guide. Showed up before we arrived at meeting point. Helped us get checked in. Had binoculars and scope to share.

The best Monteverde guide! - Dennis is such a knowledgeable and personable guide!! I was so lucky to be referred to him by a friend and could not recommend him more!! He is conscientious of everyone’s abilities and objectives and is truly passionate about the wildlife of Costa Rica.

A misty day in the cloud forest - We booked a guide through Air BnB for our trip through the Cloud Forest. The day was a bit rainy and definitely cloudy. The guide met us at the parking lot for the park. Please note that there is a long gravel road leading to the parking lot. You're not on the wrong road. . . it seems like all of the places we went to have long gravel roads leading to them. Our guide then drove us to the actual park in his personal car. There is a shuttle that can take you to the entrance of the park as well. The bathrooms at the parking lot are very clean and modern. The entrance to the park is timed, so be sure to get to your meeting with your guide on time -- otherwise you may miss your tour. Two guests that were joining our tour were a bit late and almost missed their entry. Our guide was very informative and helpful. We did not feel rushed and he took time to allow us to get the best pictures of each animal we saw. Given that the park had a timed entry system, it was not as crowded as the park at Manuel Antonio was. The lush vegetation and wildlife were quite astonishing. We crossed a few hanging bridges and got to see the forest from above. After our tour, we went to a small area outside of the cafe where they had several humming bird feeders. The place was buzzing with several dozen humming birds of all colors and sizes. It was quite a scene and we took many photos of feeding humming birds. The cafe was also very good. We took the shuttle back to our car.

Great Nature Walk, Guided Tour Not Essential - The Monteverde Cloud Forest is beautiful, but this tour can easily be done without a guide. I’d recommend a guide only if you’ve never done a nature or wildlife tour before. The animals shown are mostly the same as other guided tours (like in La Fortuna). If you’ve already seen wildlife elsewhere, a self-guided walk is more relaxing and better value.

Underwhelming experience - We didn’t see any animals. Saw the quetzal for a few seconds, but it flew away before the guide could set up the scope. I don’t know how often people actually see animals here..

Do not book with this one. - We got to the location on time and there were a lot of guides around. Nobody knew the guide for this tour and the guide fir this tour was nowhere to be found and unresponsive to messages. We ended up having to book with some one on the spot and paying more because of this.
