BIRDING TOURS WORLDWIDE
Welcome to Birding Ecotours! Here we present you with the best birding tours around the world. Please scroll down for the latest blogs, trip reports and client testimonials. But first, here is what is most important to us:
Conservation: we donate a bare minimum of 10 % of our annual profits to bird conservation. It is Birding Ecotours’ company policy to contribute this money directly to conservation and local communities. We are passionate about birding and also about leaving a legacy – by genuinely helping people and conserving birds – for generations to come.
The best birding guides: Birding Ecotours tour leaders are some of the best bird finders in the industry and are also great with people (which is even more important than birding prowess).
Small groups: we often guarantee our set departure birding tours with a minimum of 4 participants (sometimes even fewer), and ...
… we typically cap the maximum group size at 6 or 8 (with a few exceptions). We also offer private, bespoke birding trips for any size group you want (besides our set departures).
Excellent value: Birding Ecotours trips are usually competitively priced, even though we tend to use superior accommodation and vehicles where available. Orange boxes on our tour itinerary pages throughout our website clearly explain if there are things that sets a specific tour apart (sometimes meaning a higher price, as quality is paramount to us).
An impeccable reputation since we started in 2003: Birding Ecotours has a well-established reputation meaning we have stacks of awesome repeat clients. Our client testimonials speak for themselves; see the latest ones at the bottom of this page.
Enthusiastic service: we love getting back to you quickly with the information you need about your birdwatching vacation.
The best trip lists: we pride ourselves in getting the best tour bird lists (please do check our trip reports to see this) while also allowing enough time to enjoy each species, and allowing adequate time to stop for mammals and other wildlife too. We have a great many birding trips on offer, most of which are perfect for serious listers looking for the country’s endemics and specials (yet suitable also for beginner birders and everyone in between).
A few specialized tours: we offer some of the best rare mammal tours, owl tours, birding photography tours, Antarctic and Arctic cruises, pelagic birding trips, and more, in addition to our standard birding tours.
We have a vast repertoire of birdwatching tours across the planet. The above is a general indication of how we operate, but please ask us for details about specific tours, as they vary depending on the style of the guide who is leading, the destination, and other factors.

South Texas is full of special bird species that are can be seen nowhere else in the United States! Enjoy this small taste of what birding in the Lower Rio Grande Valley is like and but sure to check out our website for information on our tours to this amazing region!
All of this footage was shot by our guide Jacob in February of 2021. Despite the unusually cold, wet and windy conditions, the birds still proved to be active and present!
