Our All Inclusive Package includes: entrance fee to Soberanía National Park; lodging based on double occupancy and all meals. We also include a complementary tour in the forest with one of our bilingual birding guides.

It does not include: additional birding trips, tips, 5% tax, alcoholic beverages, laundry, and other expenses of personal nature. If you would like to take additional birding trips please read our list of birding tours.

For accommodations, we suggest that a tip of $6 per night to be divided amongst the staff is appropriate. Birding guides should be tipped separately.

Our Day Trips include one delicious meal, entrance fee to Soberanía National Park, and use of the Canopy Tower's observation deck where a guide with a 77mm Leica scope will help you identify wildlife.

Dawn is the most active period of the day for the inhabitants of the rainforest. At this time the first rays illuminate the diverse activity in the dense canopy of the rainforest. Hear the thundering howls of the howler monkeys as they proclaim their territory, and observe many species of birds start their daily and never-ending search for food. There is also a guided 2-hour guided walk along Semaphore Hill Road.

Midday is the best time to see birds of prey (raptors) as they ride thermal currents to soar high in the sky. In the Northern Hemisphere's fall and spring seasons, this is an extraordinary place to witness thousands of hawks in their annual migration. Noon is also the best time to watch ships navigate the Culebra Cut. After lunch, guests take a guided 2-hour guided walk along Semaphore Hill Road.

Dusk is another period of high activity among the inhabitants of the rain forest as they all scramble to find a suitable place to spend the night. When darkness falls, a different world appears: singing frogs, screeching owls, plenty of bats, night monkeys and innumerable arthropods. A kinkajou comes almost every night to feed on a tree just outside the dining room area. Star gazing is superb. Hors d'oeuvres and dinner are included.

We ask those who visit us for dinner to please leave promptly at 9PM to respect the wishes of the overnight guests who go to bed early. Thank you.

The guided walk down Semaphore Hill Road provides a ground-level view of the rain forest. From atop the observation tower we may see, for example, blue cotingas, toucans, green shrike vireos, howler monkeys and iguanas. Far below, shaded by the canopy, the environment is cooler. Your guide helps you identify what you see -- we often spot manakins, antbirds, tinamous, sloths, coatis, and agoutis, and an amazing abundance of butterflies and insects. Many of the 46 species of trees that have been identified by scientists from the Smithsonian Tropical Research Institute have medicinal value, and most produce food for birds and mammals. Time permitting, we may even walk for a distance along Old Plantation Road. At the end of the walk, the Rainfomobile or the Birdmobile brings visitors back up Semaphore Hill to the Tower.
