Costa Rica occupies just 0.03% of the world’s landmass, but is home to over 5% of its biodiversity! And there are good reasons for this superb richness of fauna and flora. This small country lies within the tropics, the most ecologically diverse region of our planet. Furthermore, one quarter its land has been protected within national parks and reserves (one of the largest percentages in the world) and Costa Rica's topography is incredibly varied, ranging from lush lowland rainforests on both Caribbean and Pacific coastlines to the moss-draped cloudforests and high volcanic peaks of the interior. On this exciting 11-day tour we will go in search of this abundance of wildlife, focusing in particular on the birdlife of the Talamanca Mountains to the south of San José and the forests, waterways and coastal mangroves of Tortuguero National Park in the Caribbean Lowlands.

  • Look for Resplendent Quetzals in the cloudforests of the Talamanca Mountains
  • Explore the lowland rainforests of Tortuguero National Park by boat and on foot
  • Numerous colourful tanagers, trogons, hummingbirds, toucans and motmots
  • Wander the lowland rainforests of La Selva, one of the biologically richest reserves in the country
  • Mammals including Mantled Howler Monkey, Geoffroy’s Spider Monkey and perhaps Northern Tamandua
  • Small group of only 10 people 
  • Led by a expert naturalist guide
[introduction] => An 11-day birdwatching and wildlife tour to Costa Rica including time exploring the Talamanca Mountains and Tortuguero National Park. [edges] => Array ( ) [locations] => Array ( [0] => Array ( [name] => Costa Rica [description] =>

Few countries on Earth offer such an intense wildlife experience as Costa Rica. Despite its small size (just 0.1% of the world’s landmass), it contains an astonishing 5% of all known biodiversity. This natural abundance stems, in large part, from Costa Rica’s remarkably varied habitats, from dazzling Pacific and Caribbean beaches, through lush lowland jungles and marshes, to the mist-cloaked cloud forests and alpine paramo of the country’s mountain spine. An impressive 25% of these ecosystems is formally protected, providing refuge for Costa Rica’s 950 recorded bird species, 250 mammals, 400 reptiles and amphibians, over 12,000 plants, and hundreds of thousands of fascinating insects (many of which are yet to be scientifically described).

Central America is rightly considered one of the world’s best areas for wildlife. Despite its relatively tiny size – a small, tapering strip of land, dwarfed by the two continents it connects – the region contains some of the greatest concentrations of biodiversity on Earth. Bordering Mexico to the north and Colombia to the south, the seven Central American countries collectively offer an unrivalled set of natural history experiences. Although Costa Rica and Panama are probably the most famous, and certainly the most popular, wildlife destinations in the region, they are far from the only worthwhile nations to visit. In particular, Honduras, Guatemala and Belize provide the best of both worlds – an opportunity to leave the beaten tourist track, while also encountering many of the region’s most iconic species.

On the 18th September 1502, on his final voyage to the New World, Christopher Columbus landed on a rainforest-edged sandy beach on the shores of the Caribbean. He, and the conquistadors who came after him, were so dazzled by the gold jewellery worn by the native peoples that they christened this new land ‘Costa Rica’, Spanish for ‘rich coast’. Although these early explorers failed to find the golden cities they had dreamed of, today this beautiful Central American country offers wealth of a different kind to those who visit its shores and, for the naturalist, Costa Rica’s riches lie in its wonderful diversity of wildlife.

Occupying just 0.1% of the world’s landmass, this little country contains 5% of its biodiversity! And there are good reasons for this superb richness of fauna and flora. Costa Rica lies within the tropics, the most ecologically diverse region of our planet. Furthermore, one quarter of the country has been protected within national parks and reserves and its topography is incredibly varied, ranging from lush lowland rainforests on both Caribbean and Pacific coastlines to the moss-draped cloudforests and high volcanic peaks of the interior. On this exciting tour we will go in search of this abundance of wildlife, focusing in particular on the birdlife of the Talamanca Mountains to the south of San José and the forests, waterways and coastal mangroves of Tortuguero National Park and the Caribbean lowlands.

We begin our holiday with a flight to San José. From there, after a night spent on the edge of the city, we drive to Cano Blanco and then journey by boat into the canals and waterways of Tortuguero National Park for a 3-night stay at a lodge deep within the forest. Tortuguero National Park is a remote wildlife haven on Costa Rica’s northern Caribbean coastline covering over 310 square kilometres and is only accessible by water or plane. Over 370 species of bird have been recorded here, plus 57 species of amphibian, 60 species of mammal and a staggering 400 species of tree! We will explore Tortuguero by boat and on foot over the coming days in search of the abundance of birds and other wildlife that lives here, including Sun Grebe, Agami Heron, American Pygmy Kingfisher, Keel-billed Toucan, Collared Aracari, Mantled Howler Monkey, Geoffroy’s Spider Monkey, White-faced Capuchin and the rare American Crocodile.

Retracing our steps back to Cano Blanco, we will spend the next two nights at a comfortable lodge located close to the rainforest-lined Sarapiqui River. From here we visit the nearby La Selva Biological Station, a research and education centre operated by the ‘Organisation for Tropical Studies’ surrounded by an extensive tract of primary rainforest, one of the most biologically rich forests in the country. Highlights may include Great Curassow, Great Green Macaw, Bare-necked Umbrella Bird, Snowy Cotinga, Great Antshrike, Golden-hooded Tanager and the beautiful Sunbittern, plus Brown-throated Three-toed Sloth, Collared Peccary and perhaps even Northern Tamandua. A wide variety of hummingbirds, manakins, trogons, tanagers and ‘New World’ wood warblers live around the lodge itself, whilst the colourful Green-and-black Poison-dart Frog and Strawberry Poison-dart Frog can both be found along the river’s edge.

Moving on, we leave the Caribbean lowlands behind and climb into the cool, moss-draped cloudforests of the Talamanca Mountains for a 3-night stay at a comfortable mountain lodge. Here we can continue to enjoy the staggering variety of birdlife that abounds in Costa Rica. A kaleidoscope of hummingbirds such as Talamanca, Fiery-throated, Volcano and White-throated Mountain-gem zip to and fro between flowering shrubs and hummingbird feeders. Mixed tanager and warbler flocks often include such stunners as Collared Whitestart, Flame-throated Warbler and Spangle-cheeked Tanager, whilst Long-tailed Silky Flycatchers and Emerald Toucanets perch in the treetops and elegant Swallow-tailed Kites glide overhead. The Talamanca Mountains are also home to the spectacular Resplendent Quetzal, often touted as the most beautiful bird in the world!

Finally, after a last look at the lodge’s busy hummingbird feeders, we must make our way back to San José from where we leave the rainforests, beaches and mountains of Costa Rica and begin our journey home. You might like to consider extending your stay, however, with a few nights exploring Carara National Park on the Pacific coastline or perhaps time wandering the forests and beaches of Corcovado National Park in the south. Please call for further ideas and advice.

On the 18th September 1502, on his final voyage to the New World, Christopher Columbus landed on a rainforest-edged sandy beach on the shores of the Caribbean. He, and the conquistadors who came after him, were so dazzled by the gold jewellery worn by the native peoples that they christened this new land ‘Costa Rica’, Spanish for ‘rich coast’. Although these early explorers failed to find the golden cities they had dreamed of, today this beautiful Central American country offers wealth of a different kind to those who visit its shores and, for the naturalist, Costa Rica’s riches lie in its wonderful diversity of wildlife.

Occupying just 0.1% of the world’s landmass, this little country contains 5% of its biodiversity! And there are good reasons for this superb richness of fauna and flora. Costa Rica lies within the tropics, the most ecologically diverse region of our planet. Furthermore, one quarter of the country has been protected within national parks and reserves and its topography is incredibly varied, ranging from lush lowland rainforests on both Caribbean and Pacific coastlines to the moss-draped cloudforests and high volcanic peaks of the interior. On this exciting tour we will go in search of this abundance of wildlife, focusing in particular on the birdlife of the Talamanca Mountains to the south of San José and the forests, waterways and coastal mangroves of Tortuguero National Park and the Caribbean lowlands.

We begin our holiday with a flight to San José. From there, after a night spent on the edge of the city, we drive to Cano Blanco and then journey by boat into the canals and waterways of Tortuguero National Park for a 3-night stay at a lodge deep within the forest. Tortuguero National Park is a remote wildlife haven on Costa Rica’s northern Caribbean coastline covering over 310 square kilometres and is only accessible by water or plane. Over 370 species of bird have been recorded here, plus 57 species of amphibian, 60 species of mammal and a staggering 400 species of tree! We will explore Tortuguero by boat and on foot over the coming days in search of the abundance of birds and other wildlife that lives here, including Sun Grebe, Agami Heron, American Pygmy Kingfisher, Keel-billed Toucan, Collared Aracari, Mantled Howler Monkey, Geoffroy’s Spider Monkey, White-faced Capuchin and the rare American Crocodile.

Retracing our steps back to Cano Blanco, we will spend the next two nights at a comfortable lodge located close to the rainforest-lined Sarapiqui River. From here we visit the nearby La Selva Biological Station, a research and education centre operated by the ‘Organisation for Tropical Studies’ surrounded by an extensive tract of primary rainforest, one of the most biologically rich forests in the country. Highlights may include Great Curassow, Great Green Macaw, Bare-necked Umbrella Bird, Snowy Cotinga, Great Antshrike, Golden-hooded Tanager and the beautiful Sunbittern, plus Brown-throated Three-toed Sloth, Collared Peccary and perhaps even Northern Tamandua. A wide variety of hummingbirds, manakins, trogons, tanagers and ‘New World’ wood warblers live around the lodge itself, whilst the colourful Green-and-black Poison-dart Frog and Strawberry Poison-dart Frog can both be found along the river’s edge.

Moving on, we leave the Caribbean lowlands behind and climb into the cool, moss-draped cloudforests of the Talamanca Mountains for a 3-night stay at a comfortable mountain lodge. Here we can continue to enjoy the staggering variety of birdlife that abounds in Costa Rica. A kaleidoscope of hummingbirds such as Talamanca, Fiery-throated, Volcano and White-throated Mountain-gem zip to and fro between flowering shrubs and hummingbird feeders. Mixed tanager and warbler flocks often include such stunners as Collared Whitestart, Flame-throated Warbler and Spangle-cheeked Tanager, whilst Long-tailed Silky Flycatchers and Emerald Toucanets perch in the treetops and elegant Swallow-tailed Kites glide overhead. The Talamanca Mountains are also home to the spectacular Resplendent Quetzal, often touted as the most beautiful bird in the world!

Finally, after a last look at the lodge’s busy hummingbird feeders, we must make our way back to San José from where we leave the rainforests, beaches and mountains of Costa Rica and begin our journey home. You might like to consider extending your stay, however, with a few nights exploring Carara National Park on the Pacific coastline or perhaps time wandering the forests and beaches of Corcovado National Park in the south. Please call for further ideas and advice.
