What travelers are saying

"Absolutely amazing two week trip to Mexico. Phoebe was very knowledgeable and helped us plan a fabulous itinerary. The hotels she'd recommended were perfect and in excellent locations. Our guides were helpful, friendly and spoke excellent English and when we contacted the Mexico office to squeeze in another excursion, they were responsive and immediately organised everything. All round brilliant customer service and Mexico was the most interesting and beautiful place to visit! Thank you!"

What travelers are saying

"Full disclosure - I did not go on a tour with this group, but had a great experience with their guides that made me feel I ought to write a good review regardless. While at Artemis Station in FNQ I happened upon a Tropical Birding tour group, and while making small talk with the guides idly mentioned it was my first time heading up to the Iron Ranges. Despite not having hired them they proceeded to give me a full in-depth lecture on where to find each specific target species of note, in some cases down to describing the exact place to stand and direction to look, and so far this intel has proved flawless. They clearly know their stuff, so I must highly recommend them."

Ecuador Birding Tours Tour Selection Trips

  • Ecuador is one of the best places for birding, especially in the Amazon and Galapagos. Most tours to the Galapagos are self contained, but if you have more time, there are some tours that also incorporate the mainland sights as well.
  • Birding tours are a great way to meet fellow birding enthusiasts. You’ll be around the same group every day so it’s the perfect opportunity for sharing stories and photography tips.
  • Bring a light log. For serious photographers, this is essential for keeping track of your settings in order to improve or replicate great shots.
