Expect to see squirrels, monkeys, coatimundis and agoutis among other mammal species. We will also see fantastic herps, including Basilisk Lizards, Iguanas and we should see a variety of frogs, including some poison arrow frogs. This will be a great trip that takes around nearly the entire country.  Our local guide is Diego Quesada. Day 1-Mar 2 [S].
