<h2>What to Expect from a Guided Night Hike</h2>Much of Costa Rica’s land is either preserved or dedicated to regenerating the local forests so that both plants and animals can thrive.&nbsp;Walking through the trails as night falls, you’ll observe the wildlife that awakes at dusk. This is an opportunity to see creatures like birds, butterflies, mammals, exciting insects, bats, and amphibians. There are many frogs to find, sloths, coatis, owls, and much more. Will you see an anteater, deer, or even an ocelot?&nbsp;Your guide is ready to point out nocturnal creatures, provide exciting details, and teach everyone about the delicate ecosystem.Pro tip: Make use of puddles, rivers, and other bodies of water as mirrors to spot even more of Costa Rica’s nighttime wildlife.&nbsp;<h2>FAQ about a Guided Nature Hike at Night</h2><ul><li>How safe is it to hike at night? Official night walk tours are safe. However, we do not recommend walking alone in unknown rainforests. You will stay safe and see more with a guide on tour.</li><li>What should I wear for a night walk? We suggest closed-toed shoes, socks, long pants, and insect repellent. Dark colors will help you blend into the background. You should avoid wearing articles like jewelry that make noise as you walk to scare away the animals. You might bring a sweater if it’s a bit chilly.</li></ul>

What a seamless experience! I've never used a travel agency to plan my whole vacation, so this was a joy. It was so nice not to worry about any of the arrangements. All of the tours that Daniel chose for us were perfect.&nbsp;

We traveled to three locations over 9 days. Our trip exceeded expectations and was so simple with the help of Costa Rican Vacations. We highly recommend Luke Angus to coordinate your travel.

Monteverde - This is the best ziplining, really high and really long! Extremely safe and professional staff. This area is also the premier coffee spot due to altitude... We loved Monteverde most, as it was less tourist oriented, had smaller town vibes, a sort of lovely familiarity about it.

Roxanne Birx Vandermeulen - Monteverde

Perfectly executed 10 days of fun! Emilie helped us coordinate the trip and the execution was flawless. The activities were perfect for our family. Our experience in Costa Rica was made amazing because of Costa Rican Vacations and Emilie!

Eloise Moodie - Emilie Witham

In Monteverde, we got to see Resplendent Quetzals building a nest in the Santa Elena cloud forest, and we had an amazing night tour of the Monteverde cloud forest... We saw SO much wildlife. Truly an unforgettable trip.

Perfect first time visit to Costa Rica! Planning with Felipe Martinez at Costa Rican Vacation was a breeze! He was prompt and super informative. When the time arrived, the travel was easy and very organized. All of the excursions that were recommended were top notch. Using Costa Rican Vacations and Felipe made all of the trip planning easy. Highly recommend.

Anastasia made our honeymoon so special in so many ways! I can’t appreciate enough how stress-free she has made this process and fun along the way. She was always available even during our trip when I was feeling unwell the first few days and had multiple recommendations which had me feeling better in no time.&nbsp;
