Highlights
Walk the quiet trails of the world-renowned Monteverde Cloud Forest Biological Reserve on a private walk with a certified naturalist guide. Rather than just checking sights off a list, you'll learn how the cloud forest works as a single living ecosystem, from the symbiotic relationships between its plants and animals to the epiphytes and strangler figs overhead. Along the way, keep watch for the Resplendent Quetzal, toucanets, and white-faced capuchin and howler monkeys, viewed up close through a professional spotting scope shared with your group. Reserve entrance is included, so there's no separate ticket line. Please note: Each traveler's full name, passport number and date of birth are requested at booking for the reserve entrance ticket. Transport isn't included but can be arranged on request — just ask before your tour. The trail depends on what the reserve has open that day and can't be guaranteed, as reserve changes are beyond our control.

About Puntarenas
Puntarenas is a Pacific port on a narrow sandspit in the Gulf of Nicoya, with a seaside promenade, a cruise dock and ferries to the Nicoya Peninsula.
Puntarenas stretches along a sandspit about five kilometres long that pokes into the Gulf of Nicoya, with the sea on one side and an estuary on the other. In the 19th century it was Costa Rica's main Pacific port, when coffee from the Central Valley was carted down to be shipped abroad. Today a long seafront promenade, the Paseo de los Turistas, runs along the beach, and cruise ships call at the dock.
