What you can expect

Discover one of Costa Rica’s most authentic wildlife experiences in the lush rainforest of Bijagua de Upala, near the famous Río Celeste region.

This small-group adventure combines two unique perspectives of nature: an easy rainforest wildlife walk and a peaceful floating birdwatching experience across a serene lagoon.

Your expert naturalist guide will help you spot well-camouflaged animals including two- and three-toed sloths, toucans, hummingbirds, motmots, frogs, butterflies, and other tropical species. Learn about Costa Rica’s biodiversity, ecosystems, and conservation efforts while walking along accessible trails suitable for most fitness levels.

After the rainforest walk, continue your adventure on the water. Glide quietly across a calm lagoon where water birds and tropical wildlife gather. The floating segment offers exceptional opportunities for birdwatching and nature photography in a relaxed, intimate setting.

Unlike busier wildlife tours in larger tourist hubs, this experience offers a quieter environment, personalized attention, and a deeper connection to nature.

Perfect for:
• Wildlife lovers
• Birdwatchers and photographers
• Families with children
• Couples seeking a relaxed eco-adventure
• Travelers looking for an off-the-beaten-path experience

Experience Costa Rica’s rainforest from land and water — in one unforgettable wildlife safari.
