“Tour well put together. Responsive to queries. Maybe needed a bit more detail on how to exit Tocumen which has two terminals, landing at one and leaving through the other one. Perhaps a bit more info on the terrain that would be covered which was quite difficult at times. As in my previous tour extremely knowledgeable guides. Very energetic.”

“This birding trip to Namibia etc by Birding Ecotours was pretty well as described pre tour. The guide was excellent and dealt as well as possible with all problems. The vehicle was not very good, tire problems, problems with the luggage trailer, air conditioner barely working in extreme heat. There was confusion about tips; which are included ? Every lodge has a guide or 2 added. Are their tips included? The accommodation was very good to fair, and food was good. Birding was very good with a decent final list. Overall happy with experience.”
“The guides were excellent. We saw all of the endemics except the owl and nightjar - which we heard. ALso was a good selection of other birds. The meals should have been a bit more organized.”
“Overall I had a good trip to Cuba. We had excellent guides, very good looks at many target species, very good transportation and the majority of our accommodations were good to very good; one location for 3 nights was more on the poor side, with no water on one morning and then no hot water in the afternoon. Our needs were communicated to the hotel staff and things were much improved the following morning. I found the food rather repetitive from day to day, lunch was the same as dinner with a protein option. The Restaurants were clean and the staff very good. We saw a good variety of habitats and natural areas. Cuba has some beautiful natural areas and scenery. It would be great if they could develop an eco tourism industry.”
“This was a great trip exploring much of Manitoba and its varied ecosystems. The guide as with all Eagle Eye guides was very good Ken was an excellent birder finding many birds for the group and lots of mammals for the non birders.”
“I would have liked to have given 4.5 stars (can't imagine giving 5 stars to anything). The combination of an otherworldly-like landscape, rich wildlife, attentive local guides (with cultural insights) and with-it, lead guide Cam made for an experience of a lifetime. A perfect balance of a sense of adventure without undo hardship. A trip to the arctic will never be inexpensive, but my trip was well worth every penny spent (and I paid for three!). Thank you Eagle-Eye Tours, Cam and the local guides.”
“Terrific combination of dinosaurs and birds. Guides extremely knowledgeable on both. Very personable. Itinerary flowed well. Terrific views of the birds, obtained most targets! Paying for our dinners separately a pain, include in one price.”
“Guide was superb. Locales was great. Only change would be to include dinners and have less financial restrictions on menu items and expenses. I understand it’s hard to do but similar type trips have made this part more seamless.”
“Guides were terrific, and also good company. Dealt with a medical situation very efficiently and empathetically. Very full days and could probably use a little more down time. No hidden costs or commercial pressure to buy anything. Variety of habitats excellent, with over 350 species seen. Travel and accommodation well arranged with a very accommodating bus driver who became part of the team. Ken Musgrave, Ontario, Canada.”
“Eagle-Eye's Newfoundland Tour was scenic, informative, and rewarding. We came to see Puffins and saw 1,000's on two different occasions. We also saw 1,000's of Northern Gannet, Common Murre, Razorbill, Thick-billed Murre, and other birds. We saw lots of beautiful rocky coastline, ancient fossils, historic sites, and quaint villages, in addition to the colorful houses of St Johns. We were surprised and thrilled to discover the Veiled Virgin. Our guides were knowledgeable birders and helped everyone to see the target birds. The hotels were nice, and the people of Newfoundland were warm, friendly, and helpful. Our group was all friendly, and we had a great tour. Highly recommended.”
“All went smoothly. A pretty well organised trip with quite some side activities. Comfortable ship, good food, good service. Wonder however why there were so few Europeans on board. In the preparation of the trip, I did however encounter some payment problems. This was also due to the fact that a creditcard payment involved a 3% additional cost…do not understand why. Booked a similar expensive trip to Central America (5 countries, 3 weeks) with a US Travel Agency, did everything via creditcard without extra cost.”
“Narwhals, polar bears, seals, all in their natural habitat made me really experience what the arctics are about. You will never have this feeling when you see pictures or tv. Arctic weather (unforeseen storms) made the adventure complete.”
“The Netherlands & Belgium: Birds, Art & Architecture May 2017 was a very enjoyable tour. Our Guide was professional, very knowledgeable, patient and fun. Our small group allowed a degree of flexibility during the days which was nice. The itinerary was outstanding. We saw so much of Holland which you wouldn't normally see going on your own. The birding was excellent. It would have been nice to have the Art and Architecture aspect a bit better incorporated as we were left mostly to discover that on our own while in cities, towns or museums/galleries. Having said that, I really enjoyed being able to see what we did during the tour. It was a really nice combination. The hotels we stayed in were very good and well located near towns/cities. The breakfasts were very good that each hotel provided. Our lunch stops were in towns during the day and it was nice to go to something a little different each time. Dinner was mainly in the hotel dining rooms which were very good. We had a couple of dinners out. A couple of comments - 1) although tricky, the guide should be firm about seat rotation in the van. If a client is booking a road tour they should clearly understand that they will have to move around to be fair to all the participants. 2) the guide shouldn't have to manage a food budget in front of the clients. The tour should be priced to include the costs. Most tours don't include lunch so perhaps this could be eliminated so the food budget won't be exceeded. No one on our tour would have objected. Overall a very enjoyable time and a great way to see this part of the world and the birds. Thank you Eagle Eye.”
“The guides were enthusiastic and knowledgeable about birds. They used spotting scopes and laser pointers to help us see birds in different habitats. A good pair of binoculars is a must for this trip. The main downside was the pace of this tour was too leisurely for an active individual like myself!”
“The guides were super at finding and identifying the birds. The locations were beautiful and the other people on the trip were wonderful to be with. The shore birds were easier for me to spot than the ones in the trees so I was glad there were many opportunities for that.”
