Great Birding Experience 5-Hour Monteverde Bird Watching Tour

We went on this tour mainly to spot the Quetzal, and our guide took us to the avocado tree near the open gardens, where we saw a few male Quetzals flying around. It was amazing. I highly recommend it.

We had the best guide; he was passionate and knew so much. He could imitate the sound of lots of birds, which is impressive. He made us love birds even more than we already did, and we found tons of them. Do it!
