Love this birding tour

Published on Feb, 2025

Our guide Diego is great. He is very knowledgeable. He is also very helpful and cheerful. We are very happy to go with him. We saw lot of birds. He is young and enthusiastic.

Diego knows birds, calls and habitat

Published on Jan, 2025

Diego knows his birds, calls and habitat. Above all, he is just a really good guy that you will enjoy spending time with. My wife and I birded with Diego in Curi-Cancha Reserve all morning, and he put us on over 60 species of birds, including the resplendent quetzal, the keel-billed toucan and many more. We had a fabulous time and it will be the highlight of our trip to Costa Rica!

Top Birding Guide.

Published on Jun, 2024

I had the pleasure of walking a few hours with Diego in the forest, it has been one of the most wonderful experiences I have had. I have never met such a person with as much passion, Knowledge and Education as Diego. I have been birdwatching in the United States for some years now and I have traveled to other countries such as Africa and South America. Diego is in the top standard of guides. He has incredible potential and is an incredible bird watcher. He knows about Songs, behaviors and Natural History. This seemed incredible to me because many guides only focus on pointing out birds and tell you, mention names and that's it. Diego tells stories and the why of each thing. Simply Phenomenal 5 stars are not enough, it would be more than 10!

See, enjoy & learn

Published on Jun, 2024

As an interested biologist (but not hard core birder) I had the privilege to be guided by Diego on this fabulous tour. He knows all Costa Rican bird species and is amazing in localising them with much patience. I have seen many species and made fantastic pictures and videos through his scope from quetzals, a toucannet and bell birds. I was impressed by his knowledge on the ecology, life styles and behaviour of the species, and he pointed out the plants and insects they eat. We had interesting conversations about the evolution of bird species. I had a great time and learnt so much in this half day! I can warmly recommend Diego.

Birdsssss at Monteverde With Diego

Published on May, 2024

Take a tour with Diego! It was spectacular, he was able to identify all the birds that I pointed out to him both visually and he has an incredible ear, he is a master of bird songs. He showed us all the birds we wanted to see on our list, we managed to see Quetzals, Bell Birds, Quails, Toucans and many more birds. Simply amazing Diego! Thanks Chris
