WHAT PEOPLE SAY…

NATURALIST GUIDE

“Hi Cynthia, I’m back from my trip to Costa Rica and starting to sort out my photos. I just wanted to thank you for your help on the guided walk at Finca Sueno de Osa. I’ve done dozens of night walks around the world and you are by some distance the best guide I’ve had… having come across your website I can now see why! Your photos are superb, much better than any of mine.
Thanks again for your help and all the fascinating invertebrates you found me, all the best.”
