The varied landscapes, lush greenery of the tropical forests, scenic ponds and beautiful waterfalls, and thousands of Costa Rica butterfly species amidst the diverse flora and fauna bring in a number of tourists for the butterfly tour. The butterfly tour starts with a detailed session on the various stages in the lifecycle of a butterfly, explained with the help of macro photography. Major concepts are explained, and examples for different stages are shown by the well-informed guides.
The group then moves toward the butterfly garden, wherein thousands of butterflies fly amidst the tranquil atmosphere and the peaceful setting.

Others who wish to focus more on photographing the butterflies can take the tour in the afternoon, when the butterflies tend to laze around, as the tropical forest creates a sedate and serene atmosphere under the setting sun. The tour ends with the diversion towards the butterfly laboratory, wherein one can observe the different stages of metamorphosis – eggs being ovipositioned on the suitable host plants, the caterpillars feeding on the leaves, a butterfly tearing out of its chrysalide or taking its first flight.
