    A Must Do in the cloud forest

    My husband and I were paired with one other couple so it was a nice small group. Lots of animal sightings - frogs, tarantula, toucan, owl, sloth moving around, butterflies, etc. Our guide assisted with pictures and shared his at the end. He was knowledgeable but we had a hard time understanding his english as he had a heavy accent so we missed much of what he was saying.

    Great time doing the guided night walk tour with David!

    So much fun! David was knowledgeable and very patient with my daughter. We saw some very cool animals!

    Night walk

    We loved the night tour. Thanks to our amazing guide 'Deyos' we saw so many animals. Would highly recommend.

    Guide was very...

    Guide was very knowledgeable and made sure everyone got to see the encountered wildlife. Probably would have walked right past 80% - 90% of the animals without the guide.

    Worth it

    The guide was nice and funny with plenty of info about the animals. He helps you take the picture of the animals through the scope so it looks really clear! Probably best if you wear something relatively warm and a rain jacket since you move at a slow pace.

    Monteverde Night Tour with a Certified Tour Guide (6 PM or 8 PM): questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Monteverde.

    How much does Monteverde Night Tour with a Certified Tour Guide (6 PM or 8 PM) cost?

    +

    Prices start at $55 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Monteverde usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Monteverde Night Tour with a Certified Tour Guide (6 PM or 8 PM) take?

    +

    Plan for about 2 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 Monteverde is not rushed.

    Is Monteverde Night Tour with a Certified Tour Guide (6 PM or 8 PM) worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 66 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.4/5 across 121 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Monteverde, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Monteverde Night Tour with a Certified Tour Guide (6 PM or 8 PM)?

    +

    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 Monteverde Night Tour with a Certified Tour Guide (6 PM or 8 PM) suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Monteverde Night Tour with a Certified Tour Guide (6 PM or 8 PM)?

    +

    Around 42 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 Monteverde 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 Monteverde and add a light layer if any part of the 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Monteverde Night Tour with a Certified Tour Guide (6 PM or 8 PM) 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 Monteverde 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 Monteverde?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Monteverde experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include The Original Canopy Tour Monteverde, Zipline, Monteverde Cloud Forest Guided Tour with Expert Naturalist, Coffee, Chocolate & Sugar Cane Tour (Regular). 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 Monteverde?

    +

    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 Monteverde?

    +

    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 Monteverde Night Tour with a Certified Tour Guide (6 PM or 8 PM)?

    +

    Included: Entrance Fee is also included; All Fees and Taxes; and Flashlights. Not included: Transportation is not included. Parking lots are available. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Where is the meeting point for Monteverde Night Tour with a Certified Tour Guide (6 PM or 8 PM)?

    +

    Please meet us at the Monteverde Finca Lantana (find it on Google as Finca Lantana). Once you get there, please provide the name and last name you used in your reservation to our receptionist. Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.

    What happens to Monteverde Night Tour with a Certified Tour Guide (6 PM or 8 PM) if the weather is bad?
