Hi, I'm Fabio. I am an experienced certified naturalist tour guide, accredited by the Costa Rican Institute of Tourism (ICT). I have over a decade of experience guiding in Costa Rica's most remote and biodiverse tropical forests. As the owner of a tour and expeditions company, I offer an unparalleled insight into the region’s rich wildlife and ecosystems. My passion for nature extends beyond Costa Rica, leading me on expeditions into the Amazon Rainforest in search of rare species. Dedicated to conservation and continuous learning, I strive to provide nature enthusiasts with transformative, educational experiences. Join me on my journeys through ToursByLocals for an unforgettable adventure.
