“Took the trip to Costa Rica, 10 participants, 2 guides and an excellent driver in a comfortable tour bus. Exceeded my expectations in all respects. JP and Benny were outstanding guides, both knowledgeable, friendly, professional and very patient with me, a newbie who sometimes had difficulty spotting the birds. Even our driver Ricardo was an excellent bird spotter in addition to being an excellent driver. Plus we had so much fun!!! I laughed so much every single day!! The trip was worth every penny and more and I highly recommend Eagle-Eye Tours and these guides. Added 226 new lifers to my bird life list, saw incredible scenery, ate great food, and met so many wonderful people. I will definitely travel with Eagle-Eye again!! First time traveling solo internationally, and SO GLAD I WENT!!!”

“This trip was excellent in every way. Costa Rica and the diversity of birds and habitat exceeded my expectations. The guides were very knowledgeable about birds, flowers, trees, reptiles and mammals. The driver kept the ride smooth and he was courteous and a great spotter, too. The grounds of the accommodations provided good birding. The meals ranged from chef-prepared to delicious roadside venues. JP, Benny, Ricardo and the group of birders got along well and I had an excellent adventure in Costa Rica. I will definitely sign up for another Eagle Eye tour.”

“This was an excellent tour, visiting different altitudes and habitats. Over 250 species of birds were seen or heard. The guide, Ernesto Carman, was very skilled and knowledgeable in finding and identifying birds. The food and accommodation were also excellent. Great value for money.”

“Our guide, Ernesto was stupendous. He knew where the birds were. He could ID them by sight and sound. One of the best birding guides we have had.”
