COSTA RICA 2008


Birdfinders recent Costa Rica tour was once again a huge success with a record 536 species recorded. This is without doubt the best value-for-money tour to Costa Rica using the top birdguide in the country. We use high standard accommodation, all with en-suite facilities and as near to the best birding sites as possible. The itinerary we use ensures that more time is spent birding than travelling (no internal flights) with the emphasis being on ensuring that all group members enjoy the best possible views of the birds. Our next tour is scheduled for 18 March–3 April 2009 and is already more than half full. Book now to avoid disappointment!
