Search for the magnificent Resplendent Quetzal during its seasonal movements through Monteverde on a guided birdwatching experience at Curi-Cancha Wildlife Refuge.
Explore forest edges, mature woodland, and fruiting-tree areas with an experienced local naturalist who identifies birds by sight, sound, behavior, and habitat. During the tour, use a high-definition spotting scope to observe and photograph possible sightings such as quetzals, toucans, hummingbirds, trogons, Three-wattled Bellbirds, tanagers, and other cloud forest wildlife.
Designed for beginners, families, photographers, and experienced birders, this three-hour small-group tour provides patient observation, personalized interpretation, and assistance taking photos through the spotting scope.
The Resplendent Quetzal is a wild bird that moves between elevations according to seasonal food availability. Recent activity may increase observation opportunities; however, no wildlife sighting can be guaranteed.
