King Vulture Tour





Your tour guide:
My name is Gerson. I am a naturalist guide, born in the Caribbean of Costa Rica and now residing in Puerto Jiménez. I visited the Osa Peninsula a long time ago, and I simply fell in love with the place. Since then, I have tried to do the things that fill me as a person: love nature and share it, learn from it, and grow.
About this tour
Join us on a birding adventure near Corcovado National Park in search of the majestic King Vulture. During the morning, we will visit a productive observation area where these impressive birds are often seen perched above the forest before soaring across the rainforest canopy. Excellent opportunities for birdwatching, photography, and wildlife observation await. Perfect for birders, photographers, and nature enthusiasts.
