MONTEVERDE CLOUD FOREST TOUR

Is located in Costa Rica's northern Tilarán Mountain Range, province of Puntarenas at an altitude of 5000 feet above the sea level where the continental divide between the Caribbean and the Pacific is located. Monteverde is privileged to receive a steady supply of clouds and the life-giving moisture that they contain. This moisture, often in the form of fog, catches on the branches of the tallest trees and drips down to the other organisms below. This helps to support a complex and far-reaching ecosystem, one that harbors over 100 species of mammals, 400 species of birds, tens of thousands of insect species, and over 2,500 varieties of plants, 420 of which are orchids alone.   

Include: A/C transport, Lunch, Butterfly Garden, suspension bridges and hiking through the cloud forest.
