Amazing observation tour of Toucans with Diego
It was an incredible experience to walk with Diego in the forest he is simply an expert in birds we wanted to see Tucans and we observed 2 species we learned a lot in a short hike really you have to do this hike with Diego and look for birds with him would do this hike many times more the level of knowledge Diego has of birds is noticeable and is above all the guides we saw that day in the reserve respect him and know that he is the best without a doubt. Take this tour!!

Outstanding bird watching
Diego was incredibly knowledgeable about the reserve and especially birds. He had an outstanding eye for finding birds and setting up his telescope to allow us to get a closer look. We essentially had a private tour, and Diego patiently took us around multiple areas in the reserve. We got to see stunning hummingbirds, toucans, butterflies, and even caught a glimpse of the rare quetzal.
