Amazing Birding with Three Brothers - This is the best tour guide company - a family of three brothers who grew up right near Monteverde and are university trained naturalists and guides. The best part was seeing the quetzal and the white faced capuchin monkeys and so many hummingbirds. Our amazing guide Elbert was able to show us everything we wanted to see. He identified every bird by sound and visually. We loved all his stories and explanations of the history and ecology of the Monteverde Reserve. He was knowledgeable and patient with all of our questions. He really wanted to gear the tour to our needs and desires. After the tour was over he happily helped us devise a plan to hike some of the other trails on our own. It was great to see how all the guides worked together to help each group see what they want to see. You can't go wrong with Three Brothers Tours!

Great birdwatching guide and experience - We booked a private birdwatching tour with Three Brothers. Our guide picked us up from our hotel and was very friendly and informative the entire time. He asked us at the beginning what we wanted to see, which informed him which reserve we should visit. A really great tour -- highly recommend!

Monteverde birds everywhere! - Fantastic birding with expert guide Elbert of Three Brothers Tours at Curicancha. He knows the property, the birds, and keen on making a great day of sightings for our group. Definitely call them for a fantastic Monteverde bird experience.

Three Brothers Bird Tour Curi-Cancha - Amazing experience. Our guide was Elbert (Three Brothers Tours) who has an incredible eye and could instantly identify every single bird. He was extremely knowledgeable and passionate about birding and nature. We visited the Curi-Cancha reserve. Got to see a toucan and a quetzal.

Amazing birds and tour guides! - My husband and I were lucky to have Alexander from 3 Brothers tours as our guide in the Monteverde area. In fact we enjoyed it so much we hired him for a 2nd day.. Alexander readily spotted (and helped us spot) so many birds, his knowledge of the local flora and fauna and general naturalist knowledge added so much to our trip and was one of the highlights of our 2 weeks in Costa Rica. Alexander grew up in the area and was able to easily share his knowledge at various levels in both Spanish and English. We would not have seen a quarter of the species we did without him. He also helped us get great pictures using his scope. The first day was marvelous at the Curi Cancha preserve, with all the guides making sure everyone got to see as much as possible. The 2nd day was at a private reserve where the only other group was guided by one of his brothers and we were fortunate to also have a great late breakfast while watching birds from the outdoor table! We would definitely tour with this company again on our return to Costa Rica!

Wonderful Experience - We went on 2 outstanding bird watching tours in the Monteverde area with Elbert. The first tour was at Curi Cancha Preserve. We saw so many spectacular birds. Elbert truly has a gift in hearing, seeing, and sensing wildlife. We enjoyed our tour with him so much that we set up another tour with him early the next morning at Finca Ecologica San Luis. Along with another small group led by his brother, we were the only people in the preserve. Once again it was incredible to be with Elbert and observe his gift in spotting birds and to be able to tap into his knowledge and love of the Monteverde area in which he grew up in. We enjoyed breakfast in the preserve prepared by the kind woman who lives there. We loved the wonderful experience. I highly recommend Elbert and The Three Brothers group.

Birding with Alexander - a perfect morning! - Alexander was a great guide, he found birds very fast and explained all about them and got photos with my phone via his spotting scope. We went to several places and had a great time. Highly recommended!

Many lifers best Costa Rica tour so far! - Had an amazing birding experience with Elber! He’s a great guide and helped me find many lifers including the Resplendent quetzal and a Lesson’s mot-mot and many other species. The coffee place he took us to for breakfast was also really great! Looking forward to coming back next year!!

Incredible Birding with Mauricio! - Over our 11-day Costa Rican vacation, our Monteverde birdwatching tour with Three Brothers was our favorite tour. - Mauricio was our guide - he was incredibly knowledgeable not just about birds but about the Monteverde ecosystem. We were so impressed by his expertise and ability to only spot but also identify the incredible diversity of birds that call Monteverde home. - Mauricio met with us at our hotel first to better understand our birding "hopes and dreams" - he was able to then take us to the local reserves that aligned best with the birds we wanted to see. For us, this meant a quick stop at Monteverde Biological Reserve to see the nesting Resplendant Quetzals and then a lengthier hike through Curi-Cancha. - Three Brothers is a family business (as the name implies) - it was a joy to support this family of conservationists!

Birding with Mauricio - We did a birding tour with Mauricio in Santa Elena and we were pleased with his knowledge and ability in finding birds. It was rainy that morning but at least the birds were active and didn’t disappoint us on our trip. . We’ve met two of the three brothers, Alexander and Mauricio and they are both pleasant and fluent in English. Thanks for a great birding experience!
