Overview

On this two and a half hour trek through the rainforest, join Biologist Tracie “The Bug Lady” and spotter extraordinaire Gianfranco Gómez, as they team up to reveal the intriguing world of moonlight exploration.

With a style that is as witty as it is engaging, Tracie and Gian deliver a skilful blend of natural history and human lore. Guests can expect to learn about fascinating topics on everything from bugs to bats, to all that creeps, crawls and flies by night.

This is Drake Bay's first and longest running nocturnal adventure, with over 20 years in operation. Join us for one of the most unique excursions in Costa Rica. Minimum age limit 8 years old. Tennis shoes or hiking boots required. Please let us know where you are lodging! This is important. Because of logistics we do not offer the tour from all area hotels!
