Estación Biológica La Selva

La Estación Biológica La Selva se creó originalmente para fines científicos en 1954. Desde entonces se ha convertido en un importante centro de investigación para la ecología de Costa Rica y se ha abierto al público. Proporcionando uno de los más inmaculados bosques lluviosos primarios, el buen mantenimiento del sistema de senderos que se extiende a más de 50 km, brinda a los visitantes la oportunidad de explorar La Selva con un guía de amplio conocimiento.

More about Estación Biológica La Selva

Dirigida por la Organización para Estudios Tropicales (OET), varias universidades comparten estas instalaciones de investigación, teniendo la oportunidad de experimentar la gran contribución que el parque ha hecho a la Ciencia y la comunidad biológica.

Hay aproximadamente 1000 especies de árboles en todas las 1500 hectáreas, así como 420 especies de aves documentadas que vuelan dentro de la estación sin fronteras. Alrededor de la mitad de las especies de mamíferos que se encuentran en Costa Rica y la mayoría de las variedades de mariposas se puede observar en La Selva. Tenga cuidado con las 55 especies de serpientes que se deslizan en el bosque lluvioso pre montano. Junto con el Parque Nacional Braulio Carrillo, este esfuerzo conjunto en la conservación de la educación proporciona una oportunidad para ser testigo de la ecología de primera mano en Costa Rica.

La Selva está situada a tan sólo 3 km al sur de Puerto Viejo de Sarapiquí. Desde San José, se puede accesar por la autopista 32 de Guápiles. Diríjase hacia el este desde la capital, luego tome la autopista 4 de salida, a través de la ciudad de Las Horquetas hasta llegar a la entrada del parque en el lado izquierdo. Alojamientos están disponibles para pasar más de un día y disfrutar este bello lugar. Los paseos por la noche así como los de la mañana, están disponibles para que los visitantes tengan la oportunidad de observar el entorno de la vida silvestre diurna y nocturna.

We had a fabulous Costa Rica adventure
We had a fabulous Costa Rica adventure. The bookings you suggested were perfect for our taste and budget. Every excursion was exceptional, from the Full Day Waterfalls at Manuel Antonio, the kayaking Lake Arenal and the Arenal Volcano Walk, to the Monteverde Hanging Bridges and more. All were with exceptional guides and transportation. You all helped make our two week, three generation family vacation a trip to remember for a lifetime. Thank you.

We were able to take a very relaxing 10-year anniversary trip to Costa Rica. Patricia planned everything out really well it was seamless going from one area of the country to another. We enjoyed all of the activities that we participated in and didn't have to worry about how to get from one place to the next because everything was organized for us. We really enjoyed our time there and the help we got from anywhere team while we were traveling.

David was great
David was great. We had to change iour schedule with some activities with only two days to do so, and he was able to arrange it without a problem. Whether it was David or someone else on the team, they always came through. I also have concerns about the weather, and they patiently explained the weather patterns and that it would be okay. They were right. Thanks David and team!

The team made our trip so stress free and we felt like celebrities we were so well taken care of. I will definitely continue to book with them in the future. They were there from trip planning, picking us up at the airport, arranging absolutely every detail of the trip. They checked in on us daily to ensure everything was going well and came in person to the hotel to meet with us after arrival. Everything they booked for us was top notch. We had a mix of private and group tours as well. They tailor the entire trip to your desires. You can’t go wrong with booking the anywhere team !

All the accommodations and tours were planned perfectly
All the accommodations and tours were planned perfectly. As well as the shuttle’s. Drivers were nice and courteous. The stopped as we needed, specifically driving with small children. I lost my jacket and the driver took me back to find it. The whats app number was also helpful to answer questions quickly. We needed to cancel a tour and the understood our situation and worked with us.
