“The trip was very well-researched and planned, with flexibility when required (e.g. unexpected weather, unsuitability of specific destinations). The support team were always responsive and proactive when communicating updates.”
“I have recently returned from the trip to Panama - Canal Zone and Darien and would highly recommend this tour. I was most impressed with the organizational skills and energy of both guides Ernesto and Kyle. What was most impressive was their extensive knowledge not only of birds but of all things in the natural environment. Every walk was educational including the night walks which were magical. Must also acknowledge our patient, polite and great driver Felix! Thank you Eagle-Tours”
“The fact that the group was small made it very enjoyable. The leaders were excellent. Each of the three locations provided a different experience. Although birding was my main goal the flora in all three locations was unique and interesting. Our days were action packed and rewarding.”
“We loved the variety of habitats and mix of easy-to-see birds at feeders, as well as hard-to-find birds in the field. Our guides, Hector and Jody were a terrific pair, taking us to locations that were rich in birds and unique to Costa Rica. We saw many more Life birds than we expected. The Guides' connections with the local birding community was extremely helpful in giving us opportunities to see birds that we would never have gotten to see. The drive time was broken up nicely, giving us birding breaks and fabulous meals EVERY time! Our driver, Warner, was highly skilled and navigated those mountain roads with ease. We also got the benefit of a wonderful group of like-minded birders who were as excited about this trip as we were! We always felt safe. It was a trip of a lifetime for us!”
“Our guide Ernesto Carmen was extremely knowledgeable and had an encyclopaedic volume of information about not only the birds but also the flora and fauna and entomology of the area. In addition to that he was thoroughly unflappable and always pleasant and helpful.”
“This was my first time using Eagle-Eye Tours and it was wonderful from start to finish! The guides were excellent and I had a great time looking for birds and exploring Saskatchewan. The company selected a great hotel to serve as our “home base” for the tour. I also enjoyed the lunch and snack options that were provided while we were out looking for birds.”
“I'm a birder. So my review must be seen in this context. I had chosen this trip as an introduction to birding on the North American continent. So my priority was birding everything else was secondary. My birding experience was incredible. The accommodation was comfortable and never far from the birding locations we visited. However as I don’t eat meat, I was concerned about meals and their content. My concern was unwarranted.”
“Just returned from Alberta Birds & Dinosaurs trip. Truly fabulous - 4 days of great birding thanks to guide Jody Allair. Jody's local knowledge and expertise in birding was amazing. Also found the dinosaur part of the trip fascinating. Enjoyed a behind-the-scenes tour at the Royal Tyrrell Museum which offered up incredible views. Would highly recommend this trip to birders and naturalists interested in discovering the beauty of southern Alberta.”
“A wonderful experience seeing the migrations of Whooping Cranes and many other birds. We were fortunate to find a large flock of Whooping Cranes on our first day. Our guides were very knowledgeable and strove to show us as much variety as possible.”
“A top-tier experience. Tropical birding at its best. The tour was highly professional, extremely productive for birding, and great fun. The guides must be the best in Central America. Travel, accommodations, and communication were all top notch. An outstanding tour.”
“Good sample of Newfoundland birds and landscapes. Good response to bad weather: travel and museum periods. Good picnic lunch fixings, and evening restaurants with local simple charm and cuisine (fish fresh). I would have preferred earlier dinners due to medical problem (GERD) when going to bed shortly after dinner. But early bedtime hour was needed due to early birding start the next day. (Not everyone in group had my problem.) I would have preferred a little more time on marine bird nesting colonies (one was in pouring, wind-driven rain), as I can see most of the upland species at home in Maine (although boreal chickadee and blackpoll are uncommon here). Overall, an excellent trip, and compatible group.”
“I needed to make an insurance claim. The claim took over a year to process and there were many obstacles along the way. Eagle-Eye provided exceptional service at every stage of the claim including necessary documentation and telephone and online support. I could not have achieved a successful resolution without the assistance of Eagle-Eye Tours staff.”
“Kudos to everyone involved for making the organization and completion of the tour completely painless. Consumer satisfaction seemed to be a high priority with everyone involved.”
“I have travelled with Eagle-Eye 4 or 5 times. Their leaders have been excellent. I like the fact that they are not too hard core but are intent on finding the rarities. I have never had a bad experience or witnessed any disturbing situations when traveling with them.”
“A memorable, enjoyable tour. Educational and informative. Reasonable price. Helpful, detailed information provided before the tour. Expert guides. Good choice of locations for birding along Lake Erie. Daily schedule adapted to the weather forecast. Guides were helpful in every way and made sure that everyone could see the birds they wanted to see.”
