From Mindo Cloud Forest to the Ecuadorian Amazon – 10-Day Birding & Photography Tour
10 Days | Private & Customized | Cloud Forest to Amazon
Ecuador offers an extraordinary variety of birds and habitats within relatively short distances. This 10-day private and customized birding and photography program combines the famous cloud forests of Mindo with the lowland rainforest of the Ecuadorian Amazon, offering an opportunity to experience two very different and highly productive birding regions in one journey.
The program can be adapted according to the interests, pace and budget of each traveler, with different accommodation options available, from comfortable and more economical lodges to higher-end accommodations.
Mindo Cloud Forest
Mindo is one of Ecuador’s best-known destinations for birdwatching and bird photography. Its cloud forests, gardens and feeding stations provide excellent opportunities to observe and photograph hummingbirds, tanagers, toucans, trogons, woodpeckers and many other species.
The area is particularly attractive for photographers because several locations offer close-range opportunities for photographing birds in natural surroundings. Depending on the interests of the traveler, the program can focus on hummingbirds, colorful tanagers, forest birds and other species characteristic of the Chocó and western Andean foothills.
Limoncocha & the Ecuadorian Amazon
The second part of the journey takes us into the Ecuadorian Amazon, including the Limoncocha area and Yasuní National Park, where the birdlife and habitats are completely different from those of Mindo.
Here, birdwatchers and photographers can explore rainforest, lagoons, rivers and forest trails in search of a remarkable diversity of Amazonian species. Depending on the program, activities may include early-morning birding, canoe excursions, observation towers and visits to other productive habitats.
The Amazon offers opportunities to photograph species such as parrots and parakeets, toucans, jacamars, puffbirds, woodpeckers, antbirds, tanagers, hummingbirds and many other rainforest birds.
Flexible Accommodation Options
This program can be organized with different levels of accommodation, depending on the traveler’s preferences and budget. We can offer comfortable and more economical options, as well as higher-quality lodges for travelers looking for a more exclusive experience.
Private & Customized
The 10-day program can be adapted to the traveler’s interests, photography priorities, preferred pace and accommodation preferences.
