  Motmot Tours We are pleased to announce our 1999 tour schedule for Costa Rica, specifically designed for birders. Group size is limited to a maximum of 12 to ensure a quality experience and to provide greater comfort as we travel the country in our 22-passenger, air-conditioned bus. All accommodations and meals are included in the package and incorporate many of the finest Tico-owned businesses located in Costa Rica.

These trips explore the various habitats found throughout this small country, which boasts over 850 species of birds. Extensive time is spent in cloud forest, rainforest, dry forest, high elevation paramo and more. Your expert guide, Alex Villegas, is recognized as one of the premier native bird guides and is a master at finding many of the difficult species. We are committed to providing you with the best experience possible at the most reasonable price. Unlike other tour operators, we are with you every day of your trip. Our travel dates for 1999 are:

May 3 - May 19, 1999 $2395
