What our travelers think about their stay

Region of the well-known and eponymous cloud forest, where ecotourism takes on a flavor of adventure.

My suggestion

Don't be afraid to go on a night excursion into the forest. The atmosphere is magical and enchanting, and there are all kinds of insects to see. Heart-stopping moments guaranteed!

Monteverde is a sanctuary of greenery lying at the very heart of the country and offers a change from the beach and its coconut palms. The weather can be a factor however … hence the name "cloud forest".

My suggestion

If you are traveling by your own means, you will need a 4x4 to reach Monteverde; because we are no longer talking about roads here, but rather tracks and trails strewn with rocks and potholes. You'll have to be patient in getting there.

My suggestion

You'll need several days (more than a weekend) to make the most of the area because, contrary to what you might think, there are several sites to see and they are quite far apart.
