Cartagena Birding Experience
Uncover the rich biodiversity of Colombia’s Caribbean coast on a private birdwatching tour led by a local expert. Your day begins at dawn with hotel pickup and a scenic drive to a nearby nature reserve — a hidden gem of tropical and gallery forests, just 45 minutes from Cartagena.
The tour starts early (5:00 AM) to catch birds in their most active morning hours. With your guide, you'll quietly explore the reserve, scanning the treetops and underbrush for species like pygmy owls, squirrel cuckoos, and rufous-tailed jacamars. Watch for flashes of color as hummingbirds, tanagers, and flycatchers dart through the trees.
At 9:00 AM, pause to enjoy a hearty traditional Colombian breakfast amid the sounds of the forest. Continue birding until noon, then return to your hotel with new memories — and a set of curated photos from your guide to commemorate the experience.
This is more than a tour — it’s a serene immersion in nature, perfect for bird lovers and curious explorers alike.
