Great experience with Kevin - Kevin is very competent and allowed us to see birds and hummingbirds that we would not have been able to see on our own. In addition, he helped us take photos through his telescope to have beautiful memories.

Great guide, worth the extra money. Kevin was great! - Low impact tour in a beautiful area. Heavy focus on birds, but saw some other good wildlife too. Guide Kevin was awesome - great knowledge and eye/ear for finding stuff.

Great Fun - It was a wonderful tour. Our guide, Jason was very knowledgeable and worked very hard to find all sorts of birds and sloths. We even saw a Quetzal bird. The tour was a very fun experience.

Best Tour Opportunity in Monteverde Area - Kevin provided us with one of the best highlights of our vacation in Monteverde. His skills and knowledge brought Curi-Cancha to life. We had previously walked around the reserve without a skilled guide and didn’t see much of any wildlife. When we joined Kevin on his tour, we saw many exotic birds and other animals and learned a lot also. His skills and equipment opened our eyes to the wonders hiding in the forest.

A Tour With Kevin Will Be A Highlight Of Your Vacation - Kevin brought Curi-Cancha to life for us. He found a multitude of beautiful birds and zoomed in on them so we could see and photograph them in all their splendor. We had walked through the park previously without seeing any wildlife and then we were amazed by the number of beautiful birds and a few other animals that Kevin allowed us to enjoy watching.

Kevin is OUTSTANDING!! - INCREDIBLE!!! This tour was just that!! We called Kevin a "super hero" with his skill to spot every kind of wildlife from the orchid the size grain of rice to the most beautiful birds, monkeys, insects and so much more. He was unbelievably knowledgeable and his enthusiasm was almost as big as ours. Topping on the cake was his kindness and sense of humor. He even made a pit stop for us at Cafe Colibri without even a second thought. He has made such an impact that we plan on only using him when we bring back our family next year. Can not recommend him and this tour enough. We will definitely be passing his information on to the rest of our friends and family for future tours.
