Esquipulas Rainforest - Private Birding - Fully Customizable Tour
★★★★★
4.4(33 reviews)About This Experience
As stated in the tour title, this activity can be personally customized to suit any lineage of tour preference based on your birding experience, knowledge, priority target species request, bird photography or just to have an excellent day of organic bird watching in Costa Rica.
You are free to spend more or less time photographing birds at the bird feeders (breakfast area), spend the full 4 hours bird watching to
create a "large numerous" list of observed species, or spend time searching for any missing personal target species.
Today, we are proud to operate a birding tour geared toward satisfied travelers with any level of birdwatching experience, for those simply looking to see their first macaws and toucans in the wild. Ornithophiles looking to observe and complete any personal record of missing species "LIFERS", or to develop a professional tour for the intense bird watcher with solid and vast knowledge in the field of ornithology and tropical biology.
Meeting point
