The best guide in Costa Rica
It was a highly recommended experience! Donald transmits everything he knows very well (and knows a lot!!) his passion for nature is noticeable and he knows how to spread it. We had no luck finding birds for the kind of day, but we still enjoyed it. He was the best guide we had on our whole trip to Costa Rica. Thank you so much Donald!
Operator response
Muchas gracias Cristina_hernandez70 por tomar su tiempo y comentar sobre su experiencia durante nuestro tour de observación de aves. Ciertamente el clima no nos colobaró esta vez y suele pasar así en las montañas del bosque nuboso, sobre todo en la época de transición de la estación húmeda a la estación seca. Nos alegra que a pesar del mal clima, haya disfrutado de la compañía y conocimiento del guía. Nos llena mucho de satisfacción y de ánimo para seguir trabajando y mejorando en pro de cada uno de nuestros visitantes.

Really excellent, highly recommend.
Donald was excellent. He really geared the tour to what our group was interested in. He was very knowledgeable not just about birds but about the area and local history, and he was quite personable. I hesitated to book this since there were not a lot of ratings but I'm so glad we did.
Operator response
Thank you 416stacyk for taking your time to tell us about your experience in our birdwatching tour. It is always so good to hear from our clients about how was our service. For people feeling the same way as you I tell them do not hesitate, you will be in really good hands.
