Bird Watching near The Arenal Volcano

Birds are most active early in the morning in the late afternoon as the day cools into evening. Join us for one or both of these walks in the La Fortuna area or near your hotel, for an amazing display of tropical birds. You will have the opportunity to see toucans, parrots, oropendolas, colorful tanagers and parakeets.
