Majestic trees, wild orchids, bromeliads, and a wealth of ferns, vines and mosses welcome travelers. The ecosystem is home to jaguar, ocelot, Baird’s tapir, threewattled bellbird, and the famously elusive resplendent Quetzal. The cloud forest is perpetually nurtured by mists from the coast. On many of our Costa Rica tours, private guides, expert at identifying the flora and fauna, take guests into the primeval world of this great greenhouse of old-growth cloud forest filled with birds and splendid trees adorned with orchids. Monteverde also has a delightful treetop experience using the Sky Trek cable and harness system for an adventurous bird’s eye view of the canopy.
Our most popular Costa Rica tours include Globus Tours Natural Wonders of Costa Rica (9 days,) Trafalgar Tours Costa Rica Eco Adventure, Collette tours Tropical Costa Rica and Costa Rica A World of Nature. The Globus Costa Rica tour also has options to add on a 3 day package to Manuel Antonio or Guatemala.

Planning Your Next Trip with Atlas Travel Center
At Atlas Travel Center, we’ve spent over 35 years helping travelers turn ideas like the one in this post into fully realized journeys. Whether you’re reading this as inspiration for a trip you’re already planning or as the first seed of a travel dream, our advisors are here to take it from concept to confirmation — handling every detail along the way.
What sets Atlas apart isn’t just our longevity in the business — it’s the depth of expertise we bring to every booking. Our agents are specialists, not generalists. Many have personal experience at the destinations they recommend, onboard the ships they book, and with the tour operators they partner with. When you work with an Atlas advisor, you’re getting counsel grounded in real experience, not just what’s on a website.
Why Work with a Travel Advisor in the Age of Online Booking?
Online booking tools have made it easier than ever to assemble a trip — and also easier than ever to make an expensive mistake. The lowest price on a comparison site often omits a resort fee, books a room category you wouldn’t choose if you saw the photos, or locks you into a cancellation policy that offers no flexibility. Our advisors know the inventory, the fine print, and the suppliers well enough to navigate all of it on your behalf.
More importantly, when something goes wrong — a flight cancels, a ship changes its itinerary, a resort overbooks — a travel advisor is the difference between hours on hold with an 800 number and a quick call to someone who knows exactly who to call. We’ve been solving those problems for clients since 1987, and we’re very good at it.
