Eleven days built around night walks across some of Costa Rica's best herping ground, from Sarapiquí's lowland forest to Centro Manú, a private highland site for Atelopus near Pérez Zeledón, and the Sierpe mangroves to close it out.

Arrive in San José and transfer to the Escazú Mountains. Evening welcome briefing followed by our first night walk in search of amphibians and reptiles on the forest edge.

Travel to the Caribbean lowlands of Sarapiquí. Afternoon rest before an evening night hike through the humid lowland forest, prime territory for a wide range of frogs and macro subjects.

Free morning to rest, review images, or explore the lodge grounds. Repeat night session at a nearby site to build on Day 2's sightings.

Travel up into the Talamanca highlands, a pure transit day connecting the lowlands to the southern highland zone.

Continue to Pérez Zeledón, home to some of the trip's most sought-after highland specialists. Evening night herping session targeting Atelopus and other high-elevation species.

Free morning, then a second night session in the same area, working different sites for remaining target species.
