COLOMBIA

Colombia is known to be the country with the highest number of bird species in the world and for many reasons has grabbed the headlines in the bird world in recent years. Increasing bird tourism has ensured some amazing spots for bird photography and we take advantage of this growing industry. From endemics like the multi-colored tanager to special birds like the cock of the rock, this tour will be a once in a lifetime opportunity for our participants.

We start our tour in the beautiful city of Cali. On arrival, each guest will be received by a TPT representative and taken to our airport hotel where we spend the rest of the evening. Meet and greet during dinner time.

Next morning, we meet at 7 am and depart for a small rainforest lodge not far from the city where we spend 2 nights. The forest lodge is known for some amazing species of birds like the blue-winged mountain tanager, blue-capped tanager, chestnut crowned Antpitta and several others. From here we move to the Los nevados national park and spend the next few nights in a scenic thermal lodge. Our main targets here are the sword billed hummingbird, rainbow bearded thornbill and shinning sunbeam along with several species of mountain tanagers.
Our drive to the last location is a long one, around 6 hrs that takes us to the cloud forests around Cali. Our main targets for the next few days will be the endemic multi-color tanager, cock of the rock, red-headed barbet, crimson rumped toucanet and several others. We end our tour in the city of Cali from where our participants depart.
