Cheap Bosque Del Cabo Substitute?
I would absolutely looove to go to Bosque Del Cabo but I just can't swing the cost. Is there any place anywhere else with this type of nature and adventure at your fingertips that is more affordable? It doesn't even have to be Costa Rica!
Thank you!
Thank you!

I don't think it's entirely comparable, but closer to town there's a place called Cabinas Jimenez that people seem to like and that isn't as pricey. I believe it's on the water. Maybe explore that one a bit and see what you think.

Have you thought about Tortuguero? After the Osa Peninsula, this ranks 2nd on my list for wildlife sightings. I love BdC, but it is pricey and Tortuguero is a much cheaper alternative. We use Fran and Modesto Watson www.tortuguerocanals.com
Sarapiqui is #3 on my list, love both Selva Verde and La Selva. I have not stayed at La Selva, but have taken daytours (birding) two times. The grounds at Selva Verde are awesome!

Thank you for all your suggestions. I'll be sure to check them out. I looked up Cabinas Jimenez and it looks like a great place and half the price of BdC. I'll check the others out later. Thanks!

Just looking at this thread - we are going to the Osa Peninsula in April but thinking of Tortuguero for a future trip - I tried to go to the website you mentioned, colibri, but it is not working. I see it is mentioned other places on the web too but did these folks go out of business? or change their website? Thanks!
