Reviews Summary
Visitors consistently praise Alambi Hummingbird Garden for its incredible abundance of hummingbirds, offering a unique and intimate feeding experience. The beautiful cloud forest setting, delicious local coffee, and peaceful hiking trails also receive high marks. Some guests recommend pre-booking transportation due to the remote location.
"Incredible experience! So many beautiful hummingbirds, 19 species (I think). You get to feed them sugar water and observe them closely at your leisure (the hummingbirds are free, just very comfortable with people and have voracious appetites). It was amazing seeing their iridescent patterns up close. Great place for photos too, or just relaxing with coffee and enjoying watching them all swarm around and feed, in a beautiful cloud forest setting. I stopped by before my flight. I Ubered there and the gentleman who runs the place was very helpful, and booked my taxi to the airport. (I’d recommend pre booking transportation, but it worked out great). No need to reserve/prepay for your visit in advance. I’d like to stay in their accommodations in the future. Highly recommend this beautiful, serene experience!"

"Highly recommend not only stopping to enjoy their hummingbird garden, but also their accommodation! We rented out three rooms in their guest house. The family kindly greeted us after a very late arrival from the airport. It was magical to wake up the next morning and be able to step into a birding paradise right outside your door. We saw an incredible variety of tanagers, hummingbirds, and even four golden-headed quetzals!"
Elisabeth Anderson
"The most amazing place to watch hummingbirds and enjoy the Coffee tour. Cloud Coffee show you how they grow up the coffee seed and the process to obtain the arabic coffee. The hummingbirds are diverse and easy to watch for the bird lovers. I will definitively back with my entire family."
