Birdwatchers will delight as hundreds of species either live here or migrate through including toucans, roseate spoonbills and trogons. Afterwards, you will visit "El Corral" to taste chocolate, coffee and sugar cane. This fun filled full day safari includes transportation, bilingual naturalist guide, and lunch. 
This supplier maintains a zero-plastic policy, so no water bottles will be offered, only a refrigerated water dispenser for visitors to refill their own reusable bottles.
