Excellent night walk - We went on a night hike together with family and friends. We saw the most animals on our tour of Costa Rica during this night hike and took the most beautiful shots. Jonathan was a great guide who we would definitely recommend.

Wonderful Full Day Adventure! - My two daughters and I enjoyed a wonderful day with Jonathon. We started at Curicancha where we saw three Quetzal-a male, female, and baby along with many humming birds, coati, a porcupine, and many other birds. Jonathon was very knowledgeable about the history, plants and trees. We all learned so much. We then went to spend some time in the amazing cloud forest where we saw many other animals and birds and enjoyed a snack. After several hours relaxing back at our hotel -we met Jonathan for a night walk. We saw a Toucan, a motmot, an eyelash viper along with a tarantula and other insects. We had a fabulous time! Highly recommend!

Best nightwalk - We had such a great night walk with Jonathan! He showed us so many interesting animals and told us a lot about them and the cloudforest. We were just two people and didn’t meet any people during our walk which was a super special experience.

Top class Monteverde - Tour - “Johnatan is a great guide. He advised us very well when choosing the package. We opted for a full-day tour in Monteverde, including a visit to the cloud forest and a night tour. The price was also very reasonable for a private tour. Johnatan was proactive in securing tickets for the cloud forest early in the morning, which saved us from waiting in long lines or missing out on entry. He has excellent connections with other guides as well. He shares tips with them and readily receives information about wildlife sightings, ensuring that he leads us to interesting spots safely. One remarkable ability of Johnatan fascinated us: he can mimic bird calls exceptionally well. This skill allowed him to attract or engage birds uniquely, enabling us to observe them peacefully and capture great photos. As someone who enjoys photography, he empathizes with photographers and provides valuable tips. Overall, Johnatan quickly understands his customers’ preferences, and we felt very well taken care by him. We highly recommend him anytime!”

We were lucky to see the Quetzal - We did the tour of two visits: CuriCancha and Monteverde. We were lucky enough to see many animals and the wonderful Quetzal on several occasions thanks to Jonatan, who looked after us all day and explained everything we saw. Super recommended!

Quetzal dream sighting came true :) - My husband & I actually booked 2 tours with Jonatan. The night tour in Santa Elena & the morning tour in the Curi Cancha Reserve. We were very happy because we had both tours with him privately & got to see all the amazing animals both forests have to offer. I really wanted to see the gorgeous Quetzal & thought that the Cloud Forest would be the best place to see it. But Jonatan suggested the Curi Cancha Reserve instead & he was right! The first animal we saw there, was the magnificent Quetzal & he really displayed a great show for us!!! Thank you again for making that dream come true :)

Unforgettable - Our private tour with guide Jonnathan in Curri Cancha National Park and the subsequent Nightwalk in Santa Elena Reserve were simply fantastic! Jonnathan was not only highly informative but also incredibly knowledgeable. We spotted numerous fascinating animals, and his enthusiasm made the tour an unforgettable experience. We wholeheartedly recommend Jonnathan!
