Day & Night Combo
A perfect contrast!
Overview
Overview
This combo is popular for a few reasons. First, the afternoon walk at the beautiful Monteverde trails takes place without the morning crowds, providing a very pleasant experience. And due to our temperate weather, an afternoon tour is just as great as a morning tour! Following the afternoon walk, you’ll have the opportunity to stop for a snack break at an authentic “tico” eatery. Finish out the evening with a night walk, and voila – a full Monteverde experience!

What are the clients saying about this tour?
Reviews in TripAvisor of 2020 tours to clients around the world!
Marcos shared his extensive range of knowledge with us with genuine passion and pleasure. He was very willing to answer questions. He was attentive and responsive to our questions and comments. Marcos pointed out plants, insects, reptiles, and wildlife that we would have not noticed without his keen observations. He personalized our evening hike and focused on our requests; Marcos ensured that my boyfriend was able to view snakes and that I was able to view sloths – based upon our verbalized preferences. It was truly a pleasure spending an afternoon and evening with Marcos.
This was one of the best guided tours we went in Costa Rica. Marcos is a very gifted guide. Not only does he seem to have a magical ability to spot the animals that appear invisible to us but he also has an in-depth knowledge of the local flora and fauna that he enthusiastically shares. For the day tour we went to Curi Cancha, where we saw many interesting birds (among which the quetzal) as well as local mammals. Afterwards, Marcos took us to a local soda (Sabortico) where he introduced us to delicious local dishes. Then we finished the day off with an enchanting evening tour. The booking process with Pasión Costa Rica was very smooth and professional.
