A Typical Day on our Birding Tours Our land tours typically start early, to be out when birding is best. Sometimes we are out before breakfast for a quick search for a target or mammal. We head out by foot, car or boat to a choice area, forest or maybe a wetland, taking in the sights and sounds of the morning. We move along as a small group, making every effort to ensure that everyone gets to see the beautiful tanager, or majestic grizzly through the spotting scope. We might stop for that important cup of locally grown coffee before heading further down the road to where we that great bird building a nest last year. Lunches are Dinner in Brugge most often in the field, usually at a very good birding spot, with a cold drink or a cup of coffee. We have a chance to share stories and reflect on the morning adventure. After lunch we continue our search for great birds and mammals. Sometimes we return to our hotel in mid-afternoon for a rest. Over our evening meal, we meet as a group to record and discuss what we saw and review the plans for the coming day. Some evenings we may head back out for a night tour to experience the nocturnal world of owls, potoos, and much more.

These amazing settings are often a highlight of the tour. In other cases, in to get to the best locations for birding or wildlife viewing, we may be far away from a modern hotel and the ‘best room in town’ may be more basic. In a few cases, we even stay in tents for the full wilderness experience! For each tour, we have identified the level of accommodation in the tour summary. If you have Asa Wright any questions about accommodation on a tour, please feel free to ask and we can give you more specifics. When traveling between birding locations, typically we travel in comfortable vans, often with local drivers who are familiar with the roads and destinations. Usually, there is only one vehicle, as the sizes of our groups are typically small, but occasionally there will be two vehicles that keep in contact with each other. In some tours, we use airplane flights to cover large distances and in a few cases, we travel by boat, often with fantastic scenery and wildlife watching along the way! Wetland cruise © Steve Ogle Tour group size We believe that small groups are essential for a high quality and enjoyable experience. Unless otherwise noted, our land tour groups have a single leader with 4 to 8 people and two leaders with 9 to 12 people.
