100/10!! Bird watchers that are unfamiliar with the area and local species this is a MUST. Pick up was very easy. Our guide Dauren was far and away one of the most talented bird guides of all time. It’s about 2 1/2 hours of straight birding and we got to see about 50 different species of birds. Not to mention a 3 toed sloth, howler monkeys, and poison dart frogs. Breakfast was great and there were options for everyone, including gluten free. Juice coffee fruit and a main. All the while you get to watch a plethora of birds feed on local fruit. A mot mot actually stood on our table to eat a piece of scrambled eggs. Very enjoyable highly recommend.

Great tour. I got to see some species i hadn't seen before which is always nice. Both the guide and driver were great. It's a shame more people don't book this tour. But it worked out for me as I had a private tour.

Our guide was very knowledgeable and taught us a lot about birds and vegetation! He asked us if we wanted to find a specific type of bird and worked to do his best to ensure we would see one, which we did! Breakfast in front of the bird feeders was a perfect way to end the tour! Would definitely recommend !

Aron was an excellent and flexible guide, and had an amazing ear for identifying birds. We had a great time on this tour, pleasing for everyone from experienced to new birders. Only 4 on the trip, and we went to multiple stops, wherever the birds could be found. Saw everything from a Keel-billed toucan to a pair of Barred Antshrikes and a crew of Scarlet-thighed Dacnis. The trip ended with breakfast in front of birdfeeders, where Crested Guans joined us for a meal.
I would have liked for it to be a longer trip, but otherwise, highly recommended.
