    3. Monteverde Night Walk Tour: the night life of the forest

    4.9· 29 reviews· 2 hours

    There is more active fauna at night, so this tour has a higher chance of seeing wildlife. It takes place in a transitional forest (warmer and slightly lower in elevation than “cloud forest”). It lasts about 2 hours and includes private guide, transportation and entrance fees. If you are looking for a fun activity for kids and adults alike, you will definitely enjoy a night tour. Many mammals, birds and insects behave differently at night, and there are always wonderful surprises in store, like sleeping birds, nocturnal mammals, and lots of interesting bugs. Your guide will lead you on a safe walk through well-kept trails. Night tours are so popular that a private tour is really the only way to go to avoid the crowds and have your guide's full attention. We look forward to hosting you!
