“This was my 5th birding tour with Eagle-Eye. Our previous tours have us convinced we will never travel with any other company. For this one, the birding was an optional part of a tour to some of the most remote islands in Melanesia. The cultural stuff was so incredible that it distracted us to the point where several days we elected to skip the birding altogether, and did not regret any of our choices. Nonetheless, our 2 birding guides were able to find many of the endemics for the 10-person group, and we could have picked up more birds if we had stuck with them, but at what cost? The cultural stuff is not to be missed! Even some of the hard-core birders took a day here and there to appreciate the welcomes from the little villages, (many of the kids seeing tourists for the very first time!) complete with traditional dress, song, and dance (or sing sings as they call them in these islands). I could easily do this whole tour again and not repeat what I did on any of the 14 full days on The Heritage Adventurer.”
We’re thrilled you had such a fantastic time! Experiencing the rich culture of our destinations and connecting with local communities is one of the things that makes our tours so special. Thank you for letting us be part of your journey, and we hope to welcome you on another one-of-a-kind adventure soon!
“The leaders were really helpful in showing me what to look at to distinguish between different species. I felt like I learned a lot. All while having a nice time with different people.”
“A well organized and carefully crafted tour (despite accommodation hiccups in Intervales Park). Forested ecosystems require a thorough knowledge of bird vocalizations - fortunately both guides excelled in this regard, resulting in a huge list of bird species at tour's end including an equally huge list of endemic and near-endemic species.”
“Our tour guides were absolutely excellent. Their breadth of knowledge and expertise allowed us to see hundreds of species including some rare and hard to find birds.”
“The guides make this trip - so many birds. Costa Rica is a beautiful country & we experienced so much variety in our locations, accommodations, food & birds!”
“Easy to book with Eagle-Eye. Staff on board really wanted everyone to have a good time. Food was awesome with so many choices. On land experiences were outstanding with several choices for different interests and abilities.”
“Positives: Always felt safe traveling solo. Accommodations were satisfactory to excellent, guides were both outstanding birders and human beings, fostering strong group dynamics, plus made it FUN. I really hope I get to go on more trips with either or both of them!! Driver was very steady-handed driving in difficult circumstances at time, and also a fun birder who went above and beyond for all of us. Recommendations: The last location was near the airport and grounds were nice, but the room was very musty and dark, and the pillows were like rocks. That could use some work. I was the last to leave, scheduled the bus at 10 am, but the driver/hotel owner was late, then decided to delay leaving further to bird in the parking lot with someone else. We didn't leave until 10:30. He told me I had plenty of time to make my flight, and I probably did, but that was not his decision to make and created anxiety as I was traveling solo and was the last to leave of the group. He was very nice, and I don't believe he understood that he was being disrespectful. I think if that was explained to him he would correct that.”
“Costa Rica is a gorgeous country. This tour covered different areas so we saw a huge variety of birds and vegetation. Our guides, JP and Benny, were exceptional with encyclopedic knowledge of birds and bird songs. Ricardo, our driver, was very helpful and lots of fun.”
“Eagle Eye has a lot of birding trips we want to go on. Cape May NJ Bird Migration was our first trip. Eagle Eye is very organized and they have excellent guides. Their Newfoundland Grand Tour is on our bucket list.”
“This was a unique tour. We enjoyed being able to go on shore frequently, weather permitting. We loved seeing the Walruses and Beluga Whales. It was a shame that we didn't see Narwhals, but there was a storm just where they were likely to be. I felt very sorry for the Inuit as their way of life is almost gone and without hunting, it is probably not worth living in the Arctic.”
