Tree frogs galore! - We went on this tour with our guide Bryan who was so knowledgeable and had an infectious passion for wildlife. We ended up seeing lots of red eyes tree frogs (which is exactly what I was hoping to see), a few other different types of frog, an eyelash viper, lots of cool bugs and a bat. Thank you Bryan for an excellent tour!

Solid group tour - Lots of interesting frogs and critters. Saw an eyelash viper. Tour guide we had was less enthusiastic and perhaps sighted less than the other guides we saw in the area. All groups were 4 people which was a nice size for a group tour We saw a lot more/ enjoyed our private tour more/fantastic tour guide in Monteverde, hence the 4 stars instead of 5.

Far too busy - Way too busy. You're walking in a row. Seen a lot else but don't expect to be able to walk around in silence.
