Birding and photography in Carara National Park - Wonderful birding in Carara National Park. I think we had over 40 species! Jeison was super knowledgeable and friendly and I will contact him again the next time I’m in the area.

Top notch guide = lots of species - What an amazing tour with our guide Jeison Hernandez! He was extremely knowledgeable - not only about the birds, but all of the plants and animals that call Carara National Park home. We saw 40-50 species in a 4-hour hike through the park. We are avid birders on our fourth trip to Costa Rica and this trip exceeded our already high expectations. Go with a guide. You will see far, far more than you could on your own. We saw motmots, macaws, puffbirds, hummingbirds, manakins, tanagers, ant shrikes, jackamars, a pale-billed woodpecker, and even a forest falcon. We can’t say enough good things about Jeison.

Great birding tour - Jenson was an excellent guide spotting many birds and a few mammals during our private tour. He did an amazing job of locating hidden birds with his spotting scope so so could see them.

Fabulous and probably the best ever! - Jeison was really helpful in making the arrangements for the tour and answering all of my questions in advance, so I had no worries.
The actual tour was with his associate Yostin who was the best guide I had in CR and one of the beat birding guides ever!
He was not only patient and persistent in trying to find some many birds in Carara Park and had the most observent eyes AND ears! He also had such a knack for making bird calls and whistles too. It was extraordinary!!! He went over and above far greater than 💯 percent to ensure our experience was the best it could be.
Ready and quick with the scope and gracious in taking the time to take photos and videos from his scope!
A huge list of birds. Just finished the tour today so can't yet share my full list that is still in the waiting.
If you book with Yostin, you won't be disappointed. We'll worth it!

Excellent private birding tour! - We had a fantastic private birding tour with Jeison at Carara National Park. Our group of 5 ranged in age from 14 to 78 and the tour was excellent for all of us. We saw over 20 different species of birds, as well as other wildlife. Jeison was an expert at finding the animals and sharing information about them. I would recommend Jeison to anyone!

Birding watching in Carara Natl Park with Jeison Hernandez - Jeison is a bird and local flora fauna knowledgeable tour guide who goes the extra mile. The dawn tour gave is an indepth understanding of the ecosystem along with numerous sightings with the back story and context. It was worth the time and money to have such an experience. We are a family quite knowledgeable about birds and found Jeison very thoughtful and thorough as we walked through the park. We highly recommend the tour

Great bird tour! - Jeison is an expert bird guide and did a great job for our group. We had four people with different skills and interests for birdwatching, but Jeison was excellent. We were able to see several large colorful birds but also a good list of regional endemics.
