Join us on this four-hour tour that takes you to one of the most popular birdwatching destinations in Costa Rica. We will meet you at your hotel at 5:15 am and drive you to Arenal Mundo Aventura Natural Park, where we will reach at around 5:30 am.
Follow the circuit trail that takes you through a varied landscape including a dense forest, a regenerating forest with pastures and open areas and small streams that allow the observation of a variety of colorful birds.
Among the most common birds that can be seen in this place are the great kiskadee, yellow tyrannulet, Montezuma oropendola, wing-barred seedeater, tropical kingbird, red-billed pigeon and the groove-billed ani. In addition to these, this place is also home to less common resident species such as the slaty spinetail, which makes an elaborate nest upon an impressive platform of twigs; and the laughing falcon, a large hawk whose presence is an indicator of a healthy environment.
You might even spot a black-cheeked woodpecker and Guianan trogons. Among the aquatic birds in the natural park are the uniform crake and the white-throated crake. The walk will come to an end at around 9:30 am. There is a 30-minute break for a delicious continental breakfast accompanied by juice, fruit and hot coffee.
If you prefer a more technical tour that include other types of birds as well, you can choose between nine alternate options and go for a semi-private tour. We will assign a specialized guide by reservation. Among the additional options we offer are birdwatching at Lake Arenal, Cano Negro Wildlife Refuge, Danaus Ecocenter, El Silencio Reserve, Juan Castro Blanco Cloud Forest and Children’s Eternal Rainforest.
Discover Costa Rica’s natural wonders on an unforgettable adventure through its most captivating destinations. Begin in lively San José and visit Doka Estate’s Coffee Plantation, followed by the steaming crater of Poás Volcano and the stunning La Paz Waterfall.
Explore the lush trails of Monteverde Cloud Forest and the thrilling canyons of La Fortuna. Walk the Mistico Hanging Bridges and admire the power of Arenal Volcano. Visit Tenorio Volcano National Park to see the turquoise Río Celeste River, then unwind on Tamarindo Beach’s golden sands. Conclude your journey in the wildlife-rich Manuel Antonio National Park, where rainforest meets the sea.

My wife and I just returned from an amazing 11-day trip to Costa Rica. Yuliana helped us to put together a private tour designed specifically for us. No amount of time and effort would have let us do it ourselves. We were most interested in the landscape and animals, and our private driver was able to take us to fabulous sights. We stayed in unusual accommodations including a tree house in the jungle and a villa at the Arenal volcano. We recommend Yuliana and her agency very highly and also our wonderful guide and driver, Roy.

Excellent trip with Gracie, I did things I never would have tried by myself such as rappelling down waterfalls and ziplining 1.5km. Saw some amazing wildlife and met some great people.
