Book him!

Great day in Monteverde
This was an excellent private guided tour. Our guide Juan Cano was very knowledgeable about all the birds, animals, and nature, and made this an amazing day for us. This is much better than the larger guided tours we did- since it was just us we had more time to see and learn about everything. You should definitely request Juan as he was a great guide.

Absolutely loved our day with Dennis!
Our family of five spent a day with Dennis in Monte Verde and it was a highlight of our entire trip in Costa Rica. Cannot recommend his tour enough, we had three teenagers and two adults and absolutely loved every minute. Quetzal, toucan, howler monkeys, and many many more unique creatures. A great way to get a broad nature experience in Monteverde, book it now

You should definitely spend a day with Dennis!
I cannot recommend the full day tour with Dennis enough!! Our whole family enjoyed our time with him. Dennis is incredibly knowledgeable about all of the animals and plants in Costa Rica - there was not a single question we asked he could not answer. But he also volunteered so much information we never even thought to ask for. Also he is amazing at spotting wildlife - there is not a single animal we saw with him that we would have spotted on our own. On top of all this Dennis is just a wonderful person, so friendly and engaging. His enthusiasm for the wildlife we were seeing was contagious. He also took so many pictures of wildlife and our family for us (this alone is worth the price). He also gave us recommendations for the rest of our time here, including making our zip lining reservation for us and giving us links to restaurants in the next town we are staying in. We highly recommend this trip!!

Dennis Rocks!
I would recommend Dennis 100% for this tour. Dennis is knowledgeable, professional, dependable, personable, and kind. Dennis went above and beyond to help us find wildlife. He met us at the time we agreed upon. One of our group had surgery recently and he helped her on some of the terrain. He listened to our wants and adjusted the day based on our desires. The day was memorable and I believe Dennis was mostly responsible for making it so.

One Day Of Nature in Monteverde: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Monteverde.
How much does One Day Of Nature in Monteverde cost?
+
Prices start at $249 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 One Day Of Nature in Monteverde 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 Monteverde is not rushed.
Is One Day Of Nature in Monteverde worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 67 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 15 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 One Day Of Nature in Monteverde?
+
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 One Day Of Nature in Monteverde 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 One Day Of Nature in Monteverde?
+
Around 5 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 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does One Day Of Nature in Monteverde 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 One Day Of Nature in Monteverde?
+
Included: Field Guides; Telescope HD; Transportation Included; and Monteverde Cloud Forest Reserve Entrances Fees. Not included: Hanging Bridges Fees Not Included; and Night Tour Entrances Fees Not Included. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Does One Day Of Nature in Monteverde include hotel pickup?
+
Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 20 listed pickup locations in and around Monteverde. Be ready about 20 minutes before the start time. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.
What languages is One Day Of Nature in Monteverde 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 One Day Of Nature in Monteverde?
+
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.
Is One Day Of Nature in Monteverde wheelchair or stroller accessible?
+
The operator notes: Infants are required to sit on an adult’s lap. If accessibility is critical, contact the operator after booking to confirm arrangements for your date.
What happens to One Day Of Nature in Monteverde if the weather is bad?
+
