点评:We booked a private 2-day tour in Corcovado National Park with Tropical Escapade, and as passionate birdwatchers and photographers, it was everything we had hoped for and more. Our guide, Cindy, is not only a naturalist but also an avid birdwatcher herself, which made the entire experience feel like we were exploring with a friend who shared our same passion.
From the moment we set foot on the trails around Sirena Station, we knew we were in for something special. Cindy’s trained ears picked up calls long before we noticed them, and with her spotting scope, she was able to show us incredible details. Thanks to her, we had unforgettable encounters with a multitude of species, including native, endemic and endangered ones. For photographers, having a guide who understands light, angles, and patience was invaluable. She gave us the time and positioning we needed to capture those perfect shots without ever rushing.
But Corcovado isn’t only about the birds. We were lucky enough to see tapirs crossing the river, monkeys, an impressive coati family along the trails, and a variety of reptiles and amphibians. Each moment felt like nature was putting on a private show just for us.
What made this tour so special was the balance between expert guidance and the freedom to truly enjoy birdwatching at our own pace by having a private guide. Cindy’s captivating knowledge, her enthusiasm, and her ability to tailor the experience to our interests made this a once-in-a-lifetime adventure.
If you are a birder, wildlife enthusiast, or nature photographer, we cannot recommend this tour enough.
This was hands-down the best activity of our trip to Costa Rica, and we left with memory cards full of photos and hearts full of gratitude. 🌿🦜📸
Photographer's tip: Bring extra camera batteries, especially if you are taking an overnight tour!
翻译:我们预订了Tropical Escapade的科尔科瓦多国家公园两日私人游。作为观鸟和摄影的爱好者,我们完全没有想到会如此。我们的导游Cindy不仅是一位博物学家,她本人也是一位狂热的观鸟爱好者,这让我们感觉就像和一位志同道合的朋友一起探索一样。
从踏上Sirena Station附近步道的那一刻起,我们就知道自己即将踏上一段特别的旅程。Cindy训练有素的耳朵在我们注意到之前就能捕捉到鸟鸣,而她的单筒望远镜则能让我们清晰地看到鸟儿的叫声。多亏了她,我们与众多鸟类物种——包括本土物种、特有物种和濒危物种——进行了难忘的邂逅。对于摄影师来说,拥有一位了解光线、角度和耐心的导游至关重要。她给予我们充足的时间和位置,让我们能够轻松捕捉到完美的照片。
但科尔科瓦多不仅仅是鸟类的天堂。我们非常幸运地看到了貘过河、猴子、沿着小径行走的令人印象深刻的长鼻浣熊家族,以及各种各样的爬行动物和两栖动物。每一刻都感觉大自然为我们上演了一场专属的私人秀。
这次旅行的特别之处在于,它完美地平衡了专业导游和私人导游的自由,让我们可以按照自己的节奏真正享受观鸟的乐趣。Cindy 渊博的知识、热情的陪伴,以及她根据我们的兴趣定制体验的能力,让这次旅行成为了一次千载难逢的冒险。
如果您是观鸟者、野生动物爱好者或自然摄影师,我们强烈推荐这次旅行。
这无疑是我们哥斯达黎加之旅中最棒的活动,我们带着满满的照片和满满的感激之情离开了。🌿🦜📸
摄影师小贴士:带上备用电池,尤其是在过夜旅行的情况下!
