A misty cloud forest at 1,400m: hanging bridges above the canopy, resplendent quetzals, hummingbirds, and one of the most biodiverse forests on the planet.
Travel better in Monteverde with the right person
Split costs
A solo traveller in Monteverde spends about ~$40–100 USD a day. Accommodation, transport, guided tours and day trips all cost less split two ways.
Stay safer
A travel companion means someone knows your plans, can help navigate emergencies, and makes you less of a target in unfamiliar areas of Monteverde.
Go deeper
The best experiences in Monteverde (the off-menu restaurant, the dawn hike, the local's favourite spot) are found with a curious companion, not a guidebook.

Worth agreeing on before you meet
Respect Local Customs
Be mindful of local customs and traditions. Ask before photographing people. Learn basic greetings in the local language, as even a simple hello earns goodwill.
Leave No Trace
Pack out all rubbish. Stay on marked trails and paths. Do not touch, feed, or disturb wildlife. The natural beauty of Monteverde depends on every visitor treating it with respect. Take only photos, leave only footprints.
