Prepare for a very special and unique birding experience among one of the most magnificent ebony forests and few places in Mauritius where seven of the nine remaining endemic birds call home. On your 3-4 hour guided tour in this Important Bird Area, as listed by BirdLife International, you will have the opportunity to spot some of the World’s rarest birds, such as the Pink Pigeon, Echo Parakeet, Mauritius Paradise Flycatcher, Mauritius Black Bulbul (also known as the merle), Mauritius Kestrel, Olive-white eye and Grey-white eye.
Your 3-4 hour guided bird watching tour starts with a brief visit of the museum and an exclusive visit of the bird release aviaries to spot the wild Echo Parakeet and Pink Pigeon. Discover how Ebony Forest is committed to saving endemic birds and observe the forest restoration efforts to recreate large areas of native forest. Walk or use the safari jeeps to visit the Flycatcher Raised Walkway and Sublime Point. Savour Mauritian delights at Sublime Point while your guide highlights the mountains and rugged scenery of the wild south.
