¿Te fascinan (como a nosotros) las serpientes venenosas?
This expedition is strictly planned to have the maximum amount of probabilities to encounter 21 of the 23 species of vipers and coral snakes of the country. It is going to be long and exhausting, but probably one of the most adventurous and spectacular ways to see those snakes, among many other species of reptiles, amphibians, birds and mammals.
We will explore rainforest in the Pacific and Caribbean, lower and upper cloud forests and dry forests trying to offer one of the most exciting and complete herping experiences ever. This is not an expedition for everybody, we believe there are few people in the world able to walk so hard to achieve all possible targets.
The accommodation varies from quite luxurious lodges to very basic dorms in biological stations. The food will be good enough but this is not a gastronomic tour. The main and only reason we are here is for herping hardly after our beloved and hated (by the rest of the world) vipers and corals.

Sobre el tour
Nota: las únicas especies que no buscamos son dos víboras: Porthidium volcanicum , que no se ha visto en años, y el área no es de fácil acceso, y Bothriechis supraciliaris , que no es tan difícil de ver (50% de probabilidades). pero el área es un largo camino para llegar y fuera de la ruta.
Nota: El manejo de cualquier especie está prohibido por los mínimos costarricenses.
