About this experience

What this tour opens up in Monteverde.

The night tour begins as the forest transitions from daylight into a different rhythm. Diurnal animals settle down while nocturnal creatures begin moving, calling, hunting, and hiding in plain sight.

Common possibilities include sloths, coatis, agoutis, porcupines, gray foxes, tarantulas, frogs, insects, and sleeping birds. Sightings always depend on nature, but the night walk itself is one of Monteverde's most memorable wildlife experiences.
