Overview
You will absolutely love San José after this experience. Guided by young biologists you will discover nature hiding in the middle of Costa Rica's largest city. You will get to experience with all your senses, wildlife you wouldn't have imagined existed minutes away from downtown. We are an organization called Oropopo Experience, looking to change the way tourism is done in Costa Rica while supporting young scientists, researchers, and local entrepreneurs.
Additional notes:
** From May to November we recommend booking the morning slot, however, afternoons are also great.

What To Expect
Universidad de Costa Rica
On our first stop, we will look for resident and migratory birds, lots of incredible insects and amazing flowers.
Then, we will see the largest indigenous stone sphere (which is world heritage) in San José.
Lastly, we'll visit the main campus where the sloths live freely and hopefully find some tasty berries.
2 hours • Admission Ticket Included
Reviews
Would recommend Oropopo Experience Costa Rica for your next trip here.
I would also recommend stopping into the Insect Museum located on the UCR campus. They have an extensive collection of insects on display.
