If you are into nature and are in Monteverde… This is the company to work with! We did both the night jungle tour, and the day trip. Absolutely fantastic and the level of knowledge of the guide was truly exceptional. He was extremely friendly kind and a pleasure to work with. We learned so much about the plants and animals. He also has top-of-the-line equipment (such as binoculars and scope ) so you can see things with amazing clarity. For example, on the jungle tour in the night we saw tarantula, Sloth, hummingbird, sleeping in its nest, And even a viper… and much more! The day tour was full of amazing birds, including toucan, and the gorgeous Quetzel, and a ton of learning about the Flora and Fana and uniqueness biodiversity of Monteverde. Again, I cannot stress enough what a high-quality experience was! This will give you the best opportunity to get the most of your experience in this, truly unique and amazing part of the world!We were unsure of where to go and what tour to take through the cloud forest.

We were unsure of where to go and what tour to take through the cloud forest. After contacting “Pasion” they set us up with Felix to tour through the Curi Cancha Reserve. It turned out to be a great decision. Felix was fantastic and patient locating various birds and taking pictures through his spotting scope. He described the different micro climates, the various birds, animals living there and much more. Felix is very passionate about his work and it rubs off on all. I’m not a big bird fan, but after awhile I began enjoying finding the various birds and learning about them. Felix was superb and exceeded what we were looking for in a guide. Highly recommend Felix!!!We traveled to Costa Rica with 2 other couple's and we used Pasion Costa Rica to book our adventures and transportation. We couldn't have been happier with their service.

We traveled to Costa Rica with 2 other couple's and we used Pasion Costa Rica to book our adventures and transportation. We couldn't have been happier with their service. We booked the Private Natural History Walk and Private night walk with Felix as our guide. He was phenomenal! There wasn't a question he couldn't answer. We learned so much and we saw SO MUCH! A family of white nosed Coati came walking towards us on the path. They totally ignored us but we got great photos! We saw families of Spider monkeys in the trees above us. Felix found a Orange kneed tarantula home and took zoomed in photos of it with his tripod and our phones. We saw birds, butterflies, local fauna and flora, I could go on and on. The Cloud Forest was an ethereal experience. Felix took his time with us to help us get good photos with our phones. Some of my favorite souvenire's are these photos!I took three tours (Montaverde Cloud Forest, Night Walk and Curi-Cancha Reserve bird watching, each of which were absolutely fantastic.

I took three tours (Montaverde Cloud Forest, Night Walk and Curi-Cancha Reserve bird watching, each of which were absolutely fantastic. My guide, Felix, (and Olman for the night tour), were simply amazing at spotting wildlife and identifying flora and fauna. However, Felix was over the top when it came to birds. He could spot and identify birds from an incredible distance and was quick to move me into position to see exactly what he was seeing. I was incredibly fortunate to see four different resplendent auetzels one day (male, female and two juveniles) and one another day (male). In addition, I saw a very rare kinkajou running along a tree branch.) The tours were very well organized. And it goes without saying that Felix and Olman were superb. Transportation was excellent and communications first rate. Highly, highly recommend Pasion Costa Rica. Terrific tour company.We were so lucky to get Felix for three days in a row (night walk, natural history walk and hummingbird garden).

We were so lucky to get Felix for three days in a row (night walk, natural history walk and hummingbird garden). He was able to identify birds within seconds and could find them easily in the canopy of trees. We saw so much wildlife that we would never have found on our own. Felix was a walking encyclopedia of everything that we saw but never bored us with too much information. His knowledge really enriched our experience. A trip to Costa Rica is not complete without wildlife tours in Monteverde. Our teenage children loved it also. We were able to see a Resplendent Quetzal bird! This experience is most highly recommended.Felix was a world class tour guide. He was incredibly knowledgeable, passionate, full of positive energy, found an amazing array of birds and plants to show us, and was very personable.

Felix was a world class tour guide. He was incredibly knowledgeable, passionate, full of positive energy, found an amazing array of birds and plants to show us, and was very personable. It was so easy to connect with him and find many interests in common. He truly exemplified "pura vida." Besides how wonderful he was, some highlights of our tour included learning about amazing ecological interconnections, seeing once in a lifetime birds, and marveling at the canopy's diversity. Felix spotted birds that other guides on the trail could not find and expertly set up his scope in seconds so we could see birds up close. This tour is something we will remember the rest of our lives. Thank you!
