Jorge is THE “Guy”de! - I’ve done many tours with many guides and Jorge (George) was by far the most knowledgeable, generous, enthusiastic, kind, entertaining guide we’ve had the opportunity to enjoy. Do not hesitate to book a tour, or two or three with Jorge. We did three private tours with him; Monteverde Cloud forest where we were engrossed in nature and informed of the many animals/foliage of the area, saw a tarantula (very cool) and hiked to the continental divide. At the Curi Cuncha Reserve we walked for several hours at a nice stroll taking in humming birds and many other bear full birds including the gorgeous Resplendent Quetzal and spent the afternoon at Don Marcos reserve for a treasured time of up close birding, a delicious home cooked lunch and a locally sourced perfect cup(s) of coffee (and being from Seattle that means something!) and when the rains came, impromptu lesson in making and enjoying handmade tortillas. Jorge and his guided tours were the highlight of our eight days in Costa Rica. We’re already planning our next trip back! Oh…and the pictures he can capture with your phone and high powered telescope are museum quality! Fabulous! Book him!!

Perfect spot with a perfect guide! - Georges is amazing! And he is on so many level. First of all he is a great human being. He cares about his community and it shows in everything he does. He knows about nature, wildlife and birds and he is a great communicator. I spent 3 days with him concentrating on bird photography and it was worth every minutes! I went a few times to Don Marcos and I got to see an amazing number of species in a great environment, perfect for photography!
