Pura Vida! This Is Elier I am a person that likes so much nature and I like to share everything about flora and fauna of the Monteverde area. When I was a kid I always said to my self, I want to study and I gonna be a Naturalist and I was growing up with that mentality until I arrive at the university in Puntarenas and have that carrier, after 3 and a half years I become a guide and got my credence. From this moment I started to learn about all the Monteverde flora and fauna because in every place that you look you are gonna find something special. I am a person that likes to be in action an I practice soccer with a team of the community some times we travel to other places in Costa Rica but always learning and looking for animals especially birds. In essential I would like to teache you a very special and unique place with a wonderful cloud forest in the world I am a certifiqued guide in Guía de turismo General (#944) and recently I have a new credency like Guía de turismo especializado naruralista and every year I hace to do diferents courses to keep thoses licences in order. I am working in Monteverde aerea from 18 years ago always learning and doing a lot of courses every year. In Costa Rica to renew the license there is a requirement of hours and courses so we are always learning every day. I do not have any problem doing Tours un Inglish or Spanish for the moment.

    This tour was one of the highlights of our Costa Rica trip. We had never done a night hike, and the experience was completely different than the day hikes we are use to doing. Seeing nocturnal animals active in their habitat was very cool, especially with our guide, Elier, who patiently searched for the animals and took the time to share his knowledge. It was a great...
