Our guide was very... - Our guide was very knowledgeable of the local flora and fauna. We were able to see many species of birds, mammals, and frogs. He did not make us feel rushed and made sure we had plenty of time to enjoy being in nature. On previous guided tours in other locations, I have had a difficult time seeing birds even after the guide has pointed them out. Because Curicancha is less dense than other more densely forested areas, I was able to spot the wildlife much easier which made the experience more enjoyable than I expected.

Wonderful daytime guided experience - The park has so many different areas with the opportunity to see many different specifies! Our guide Dennis was like a magician- pointing his scope into seemingly endless green and finding incredible birds and animals! We saw three sets of nests with baby birds, including CR Toucans! You can sometimes see monkeys, sloths, quetzals (!), toucans, and on and on.

Great Tour with Roy - I was the only customer so had the guide to myself. Roy was very knowledgeable and kind. It was disappointing not to see the Quetzal they can’t guarantee those things I understand. I saw so many hummingbirds. It would make your head spin. It was very peaceful there, so that’s nice overloaded with tourists.

Very nice bird tour - I really liked the friendly and knowledgeable guide that did our tour. We had enough time and spent over 3 hours. We saw a lot of birds and were even lucky enough to see an amardillo. The tour was mainly about birds, and I expected the wildlife tour to be a little more about wildlife in general, not so much about birds, but still, it was very nice. What I actually found a little disappointing was that they wrote in the description "private tour", "only your group" will attend, but they did not write if there needs to be a minimum amount of persons of "our" group. We ended up doing the tour with another couple, and this was not what I imagined, even if anyone were friendly of cause.

Entertaining hike through the cloud forest - Wonderful, entertaining hike through the cloud forest. Jorge showed us hummingbirds, snakes, capuchin monkeys and much more. We also met coatis, but unfortunately no sloths... well, that's nature. Very good guide in 3 languages (Spanish, English, French).
