Wildlife and birding tour in Costa Rica with @avenativatours
We booked an 11-day trip with the amazing @CarlosLuisJimenezCruz ( @avenativatours @birdingincostarica ) through personal recommendation. We cannot praise him highly enough for the professional, friendly and extremely knowledgeable service he provided. Nothing was too much trouble. He tailor-made our trip to take account of the variety of experiences we wanted to include (zip-lining, kayaking, snorkelling, beach-time, hot-springs and waterfalls) and was flexible where necessary if we wanted or weather dictated a change. Options were available at all points to account for those of us who, for example, wanted to be up at 6am and out birding before breakfast, or for those who preferred a later start. He carefully planned our trip to avoid crowds in one of the busiest times of year and selected (with our agreement) suitably-priced and comfortable hotels. We were constantly amazed by his hawk-like observation skills – we would be driving along the road in the middle of nowhere and he would pull over, jump out of the van with his binoculars and there at the top of a random tree would be a sloth or a toucan that we would never have noticed otherwise. There was not a bird we saw (out of 180 or so) that he did not seem to know detailed information about. It was lovely to see his genuine and infectious enthusiasm for tracking down rare wildlife to show us (including the elusive Quetzal) and dedicate himself to finding us specific species we wanted to see. Everywhere we went, other tour guides would greet him warmly and we were told more than once by others that “Carlos is the best.” We absolutely agreed!

Why this scores 51
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Full-Day Private Nature and Wildlife Tour in Costa Rica: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for La Fortuna.
How much does Full-Day Private Nature and Wildlife Tour in Costa Rica cost?
+
Prices start at $350 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in La Fortuna usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Full-Day Private Nature and Wildlife Tour in Costa Rica take?
+
Plan for about 8 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in La Fortuna is not rushed.
Is Full-Day Private Nature and Wildlife Tour in Costa Rica worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 51 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 1 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in La Fortuna, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Full-Day Private Nature and Wildlife Tour in Costa Rica?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Full-Day Private Nature and Wildlife Tour in Costa Rica suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Full-Day Private Nature and Wildlife Tour in Costa Rica?
+
Around 0 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in La Fortuna can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in La Fortuna and add a light layer if any part of the 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Full-Day Private Nature and Wildlife Tour in Costa Rica start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central La Fortuna within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in La Fortuna?
+
On Outty we rank every La Fortuna experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Upper Balsa River White Water Rafting Class 3/4 in Costa Rica, White Water Rafting Class II and III, Authentic Coffee and Chocolate Tour at North Fields. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit La Fortuna?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in La Fortuna?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in Full-Day Private Nature and Wildlife Tour in Costa Rica?
+
Included: Private transportation; Snacks; Bottled water; Lunch; and In-vehicle air conditioning. Not included: Alcoholic beverages; and Gratuities. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Does Full-Day Private Nature and Wildlife Tour in Costa Rica include hotel pickup?
+
Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 57 listed pickup locations in and around La Fortuna. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.
What languages is Full-Day Private Nature and Wildlife Tour in Costa Rica offered in?
+
It is offered in English and Spanish. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.
Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Full-Day Private Nature and Wildlife Tour in Costa Rica?
+
Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.
