PRICE: $51
per person

 

Join a guided night walk through the Costa Rican rainforest and discover the fascinating creatures that come to life under the moonlight. Explore mysterious trails and admire the dance of fireflies, the songs of nocturnal birds, and the activity of animals such as frogs, insects, and perhaps even some nocturnal mammals.

The rainforests of Costa Rica are home to an astonishing diversity of creatures that only venture out into the darkness. Be amazed by the fascinating adaptations they have developed to survive in the dark. Some have heightened senses, such as night vision or ultra-sensitive hearing, to hunt and orient themselves in the twilight.

Others use bioluminescence, a magical spectacle of flickering lights, to communicate, attract prey, or defend themselves. Their behaviors are also different; many animals take advantage of the darkness to hunt, mate, or search for food, which would be difficult or dangerous during the day.

Observing them in their natural environment is an unforgettable experience that connects you with the essence of wildlife. Be part of a world where life is transformed as night falls.
