It’s a great tour for birdwatching, the trail has a mediums slope but it worth it in order to watch many species, including targets as Andean cock-of-the-rocks endemic tanagers and other colorful birds, just as they promise.

Nestor and Ivan (our guides) were both friendly and professional, easy to get along with and knowledgeable about the local ecosystem. We were two people on this tour, me, a novice birder, and my friend, who has eleven years of experience working in the field: they managed to make the tour both accessible to me and interesting to my friend. We saw some crazy birds and planted some wax palm trees as a little act of environmental contribution.
