Set off from Uvita into the lush foothills of the South Pacific, where misty forests echo with birdsong. Our expert birding guides will take you to some of the best hidden spots in the area, where you can observe a wide range of tropical and migratory birds.
This tour is ideal for early risers, photographers, and anyone who wants to deepen their connection with Costa Rica’s natural rhythms. Whether you’re identifying lifers or simply soaking in the forest’s morning energy, each sighting tells a story.

It is a tropical rainforest — rain is part of the experience.
We reserve the right to cancel or reschedule tours if heavy rain or strong winds make it unsafe.
Expect flexible timing — this is real jungle, not Disneyland.
Trail conditions, and wildlife activity can all affect the schedule. Just relax and enjoy the adventure.
