Butterfly Botanical Gardens:
This is the first butterfly garden and private nature reserve tour in the Manuel Antonio area, located in front of Hotel Si Como No. Here you will find more than 20 species of butterflies (like famous Monarch and Blue Morpho) inside a uniquely designed 1000 square foot atrium garden. Your guide will show you the host plants and you’ll be able to observe the four different stages of metamorphosis (Egg, Larvae, Chrysalis and Adult Butterfly) and perhaps witness the magical moment when a butterfly first opens its wings and takes flight for the first time.

This unique Jungle Walk in the Manuel Antonio area, is a 2 hours tour where you will have the opportunity to be part of one of the most interesting and important ecosystems of Costa Rica, the Nocturnal Tropical Wet Forest. You will have the experience to be in contact with many nocturnal inhabitants in our Refuge, like Kinkajou (Potos Flavus) Armadillo (Cabassous centralis), or the chance to see one of the most interesting reptiles … Snakes! With more than 30 identified species, you’ll have the opportunity to learn about their scientific descriptions, with enough data to know how dangerous they are and their natural history. Also you’ll have the opportunity to visit our Tropical Aquatic Gardens where you’ll find a variety of species of Frogs and Toads. One of the most popular, the Red Eyed Tree Frog (agalychnis callidryas), or the Glass tree Frogs (cochranella granulosa) and Hyalinobatrachiun pulveratum), and the Wet Forest Toad (Bufo melanochlorus), endemic species of Costa Rica.
