Sarapiqui Tours

One of the remaining habitats for the rare Great Green Macaw, Sarapiqui draws a number of birding enthusiasts, as well as nature lovers who come for a chance to see monkeys, sloths, and other tropical forest animals. La Selva Biological Station is world renowned as a rainforest research center providing education to tourists and scientists alike. The thriving wildlife diversity found here is due in no small part to the additional number of private protected reserves in the area. On one such reserve, you can take a quiet riverboat sightseeing trip along the Sarapiqui River excellent for birdwatching. Or just enjoy being out on a comfortable boat gliding over water observing parts of the jungle unreachable by land. Whether hiking or boating you’re likely to see an abundance of wildlife including the many rainforest orchids unique to this area.
