Monteverde · Nightlife

Guided torch walks start soon after dark and are the standard evening here. Book the same day; groups are capped.

A small live bat exhibit in Santa Elena with a walk-through flight room and a guide who genuinely knows the animals.

A handful of bars in the village, with live music at weekends and a crowd of guides, students and volunteers. Nothing runs very late.

A frog exhibit in Santa Elena. The animals are far more active once the lights go down, so take the later slot.

Late-afternoon farm tours finish with a tasting and a trapiche demonstration, which is about as close as Monteverde gets to a night out.
