Overview

Pay a visit to one of the most iconic and lush cloud forests surrounding Bogotá with an expert bird guide that will help you identify up to 40 bird species including colorful tanagers, hummingbirds, warblers, flycatchers and toucanets.

Your bird watching expert guide will help you learn to identify and distinguish between the different species while observing hummingbird feeders.
