Shared Monteverde Night Tour

We had such a wonderful experience with Eduardo! Although it was raining, we were totally fine under the canopy without the umbrellas. Eduardo was very friendly and informative. He also worked really hard to try and find us some cool animals during our tour, and we were lucky enough to see some frogs, insects, and birds. He was super knowledgeable about everything he pointed out to us, giving us details descriptions as well as all of their scientific names. I cannot recommend this tour, or Eduardo, enough!! If you are thinking of booking - you will not regret it! Thank you Eduardo & Finca Lantana :) All the best, Danna & Thomas from Toronto, Canada

Eduardo was an amazing guide and took a lot of time and care in identifying all the frogs, spiders, moths and butterflies we were lucky enough to see. He even helped us spot the apparently elusive kinkajou. Highly recommend walking through the forest at night, and Eduardo was a great guide to do it with.

Learning about the behavior of each insect, amphibian, and arachnid that we saw on the tour and growing my appreciation for small living beings.

A fantastic and informative trip through the true night life of monteverde jungle. Our guide was passionate and knowledgeable about the diverse wildlife we saw. A great experience! Best part of our trip!

Eduardo is an expert naturalist who shared a wealth of knowledge and experience with me and my fiance on our 2 hour night tour at Bosque Eterno de los Niños Bajo del Tigre. Communication before the tour was very easy via WhatsApp. Eduardo is truly passionate about conservation in Costa Rica and has lived in Monteverde for many years. He taught us to use our ears and eyes to spot small but amazing creatures like frogs, tarantulas, beetles, spiders, scorpions, and birds (e.g. Lesson's Motmot). Without his eagle eyes we would have been totally lost. Eduardo has a wealth of knowledge about the creatures of the cloud forest and conservation and it was a pleasure learning from him and walking with him!

Eduardo is an experienced naturalist who "lives and breathes" the rainforest. He is a walking encyclopedia of flora and fauna. He is a good fit for the person who really wants to learn, trusts local knowledge, and has the patience to listen and walk slowly enough to examine things closely. Please expect rain in the rainforest! We saw tarantulas (not as scary as I thought), a mottled owl, praying mantis, male walking stick, a woodpecker in its nest (yes at night) and much more. In addition, the tour was an excellent value.

Eduardo was an amazing guide. I have never me anyone who can spot insects like he can--and I'm an entomologist! We saw absolutely every little critter I had wanted to see in Costa Rica. I felt totally safe, and Eduardo and I connected over a shared love of ecology throughout the night. Gracias, Eduardo!

Eduardo was easy to communicate with beforehand, and was waiting for us when we arrived at the entrance to the park. He is extremely knowledgeable, having lived and researched in the parks for 27+ years. We had one flashlight, and he had another with him. The hike (it's a walk, wear closed shoes you can dirty but nothing crazy) led us in a circle, and he was able to point out several birds, tarantulas, plants, etc. The amount of knowledge was spectacular, and we definitely would have missed all of it if we were on our hand. In fact, we liked it so much we hired him to guide us the next day at Monteverde, a different park - again, so much knowledge, and showed us so much we would have missed on our own. 100% recommend his expertise!
