Guided Group Tour of Santa Elena Cloud Forest Reserve

This guided tour will take you to the lesser known Santa Elena Cloud Forest Reserve. The main draw of this nature reserve is that it is less busy than other more popular reserves in Monteverde.

Along the trails at the Santa Elena Reserve, you can see many types of birds, including the rare Resplendent Quetzal. Animals are harder to spot, though it’s possible to see things like snakes, monkeys, and many interesting insects.

The surrounding environment at the Reserve is spectacular. Grand trees tower toward the sky, covered in layers of thick moss and lichens. Vines drape down to the jungle floor. A tropical flower or plant add an occasional burst of color to the all-green surrounds.

One of the main attractions is an Observation Tower with views of Tenorio Volcano, Miravalles Volcano, and Rincón de la Vieja. You also can see Arenal Volcano and Lake Arenal in the distance on clear days.

Cost of Group Tour (8 people maximum): $40 per person + 13% tax + entrance fee. You will pay your own entrance fee on the day of the tour ($18 pp adults, $12 pp students, $9 pp children). Free for children 5 and under.
Offered: 7:30 a.m.
Duration: 3 hours (approximate) 
Includes: Certified, bilingual naturalist guide with spotting scope.
*Transportation available for an additional charge. We will let you know the cost from your hotel or vacation rental by email after you request a booking.

    Great service, helpful guide, and all arranged by Matt and Jenn. In addition, Two Weeks in Costa Rica helped us navigate a number of concerns before we even arrived. Very helpful and responsive!
