Beautiful nature walk and birding experience in Curi Cancha
Rafael spoke excellent English, he is very knowledgeable about the birds and trees in Curi Cancha. We were able to see many many birds due to his birding expertise. Very nice and personable guy. Highly recommend him as a guide.

Knowledgeable and fun
Raphael was very knowledgeable and adjusted to our interests. He knew great spots to see nesting keel billed toucan and we saw bell bird as well. He explained the ecology of the forest and history of the land. We enjoyed his perspective as a local as well.

Thanks, Rafa!
Rafa was an excellent guide! He spotted some amazing birds for us and also an incredibly beautiful transparent butterfly. The Three-wattled bellbird and a colibri nest were the highlight!

Intro 101:to Monteverde
Basic intro but not what we expected from a cloud forest tour. Turns out we should have gone up to the longer Monteverde cloud forest tour to.likely.see more wildlife, mammals, quetzals etc. however, our guide, Rafael mendez was excellent and tried with all his might to find a quetzal for us without luck. He was also incredibly thoughtful person who provided a lot of support to our 80.year old friend who has mobility and walking issues in long distances. He was really great!

Great guide and a big help
Rafael was a great help in addition to being a great guide. My dog wasn't allowed in the reserve, so he arranged for his wife to take care of her while I was on the walk. My car broke down and he found a local mechanic who worked on Saturday, which I had been unable to find myself. When I couldn't go on the walk owing to the car problem, he graciously let me schedule it for a later day. I'll let everyone else speak on how good he is on the trails. Very highly recommended.

Amazing experience with Rafael
We had a fantastic time exploring the cloud forest. We saw so many animals, and our guide, Rafael, was excellent. He shared so many interesting facts about the local plants and wildlife. Highly recommended!
