We knew it could rain on us, but we were fortunate that the rain eluded us and the experience was amazing. Our guide even found a hot spring for us to check out.

See the largest fruit stand in the country, where you will see a large variety of tropical fruits. Visit a place where several white-faced monkeys are usually observed at a close range. Once in Monteverde, savor a delicious lunch and then proceed to ride on the Sky Tram, with great views of the whole Monteverde-Santa Elena area. Spend about 15-20 minutes at the highest lookout point, and then ride the Tram down for about 15 minutes.

This trip was absolutely amazing! Our tour guide Juan was very knowledgeable and so kind. We got to see a variety of animals including a mother monkey with her baby whilst walking along the hanging bridges. The views were absolutely stunning and would highly recommend this tour!
