Tour Details

At the indicated time, we'll meet 200 m (656 ft) north of the Bon Appetit restaurant. From this point, we'll begin our adventure through Oktari Monteverde, a private reserve near the center of Santa Elena designed for wildlife observation.

We'll enter a path surrounded by vegetation, experiencing the changing atmosphere as night falls. The hike includes natural trails without steps, moss-covered surfaces, small springs, and up to four bridges for observing the nocturnal fauna.

During the tour, we'll learn about the cloud forest ecosystem and its inhabitants, including bioluminescent insects, tree frogs, armadillos, and possibly a sloth or kinkajou in the branches.

We'll conclude the two-hour tour at the starting point after a thorough exploration of the Costa Rican jungle.
