About this experience

Discover the hidden world of Monteverde after dark on a guided night walk led by an experienced local naturalist. As the forest comes alive, you'll search for nocturnal wildlife that most visitors never have the chance to see during the day. Using trained observation skills and a high-powered spotting scope, your guide will help you find sleeping birds, sloths, frogs, tarantulas, insects, snakes, armadillos, and other fascinating creatures that emerge after sunset. Every walk is different, making each experience unique and exciting. This small-group tour takes place at the Monteverde Wildlife Refuge, where easy trails provide excellent opportunities for wildlife observation and photography. Along the way, you'll learn about animal behavior, camouflage, ecosystems, and the remarkable adaptations that allow these species to thrive in the cloud forest at night. This tour offers an unforgettable look into one of Costa Rica's most active and mysterious ecosystems.
