    This tour is a great new alternative for bird watching enthusiasts. The trip to this rarely visited cloud forest will give you the opportunity to see a wide variety of flora and fauna including the spectacular Quetzal with its eye-catching plumage and many other bird species. When many people think of the Costa Rican cloud forest, Monteverde is the first name that comes to mind but those that take this tour will quickly find that Costa Rica has much more to offer than just Monteverde. To reach the Juan Castro Blanco National Park which is located only 1 ½ hours from La Fortuna, you will drive through the San Carlos lowlands, Costa Rica’s most productive agricultural region.   The small number of tourists that visit the park, the personalized nature of the tour and the area’s beauty make for an excellent combination.  Many of the San Carlos lowlands’ most prominent rivers have their origins in the park as do many of the most of the important aquifers in the area.  The total area of the park which was created by decree in 1992 is 14,250 hectares (approximately 35,600 acres). The most common species of fauna found in the park are birds such as the Quetzal, Crested Guan, Black Guan and Chachalaca and mammals such as the Red Brocket Deer, White Faced Capuchin Monkey, Armadillo, Paca, Tapir and several cat species.  The park has a very diverse array of flora with approximately 60% of the park’s total area being covered by primary forest and the remainder consisting of patches of secondary forest.  The tour will end with a delicious lunch with trout as the main course.

This hike was amazing! Jairo is a wonderful, friendly, extremely knowledgeable guide. From the drive there to the 3 hour hike to the home cooked lunch at the end we enjoyed it all. We hiked through beautiful forest to overlooks and the stunning crater lake only seeing a couple other visitors. We saw cool insects, birds, and so many plants. Highly recommend the hike and Jairo!

We did a birdwatching tour in Guancaste - I was amazed by how many different species we saw. An incredibly wide variety, and a number of uncommon ones as well - everything from a laughing falcon to owls to bats and mot-mots and a roseate spoonbill. Even a very large crocodile.... The guide was very knowledgeable and nice - it starts early, but we were the only ones even in high season, so you might score a private tour!
