Birding Tours and Bird Photo Tours to Exotic Places

Exotic Birding is a family operated tour company offering specialty bird watching and bird/nature photo tours to Central and South America. Tours are carefully planned and organized to visit the best sites at the best times of year for seeing and photographing birds in each destination country. The company offers competitively priced tours to Belize, Costa Rica, and Panama in Central America, Ecuador, Guyana, and sometimes Brazil in South America, and the Galapagos Islands off the coast of Ecuador in some years. Tours are limited to 8 paid participants, making for a more personalized experience and giving everyone a better opportunity to get the most from the tour while avoiding the disruptive impact larger groups have on birds and animals in tropical rainforests.

Photo tours are also led by a professional photographer with years of experience photographing birds and other animals in the tropics. Birding tours concentrate on seeing as many species of birds as possible in a short period of time. This is accomplished with carefully crafted itineraries designed to visit many different habitats and altitudinal zones along with specific sites where rarities and range-restricted birds can be found. Photo tours are designed to provide numerous opportunities to photograph a wide variety of birds and mammals in the wild. They differ from traditional nature photo tours in that participants go into the field with an expert guide who is invaluable finding and identifying birds, monkeys, and other animals to photograph. Participants walk rainforest trails, enjoy boat trips along remote waterways, and explore out of the way places while photographing a wide array of non-traditional subjects including hawks, eagles, toucans, trogons, antbirds, tanagers, and many other kinds of birds in addition to more traditional subject matter such as herons, egrets, and hummingbirds.
