Located in the 7 wonders of Costa Rica in the cloud forest, the Night Walk has become a very attractive request by people who travel to this country to observe the great biodiversity that provides. Going into a jungle at night will give you a chance to see the animals in a new environment. Many jungle creatures are only active at night and this is the only way to experience them.

The tour lasts approximately two hours. While wandering through the trees be sure to look out for the 200 species of bird that call this forest home. You may also come across armadillo, coati, agouti, kinkajou, ocelot, two-toed sloth, and three different species of monkey.
