“Excellent tour. Good, personable and knowledgeable leaders. Well organised, with the 2 Vans. An extra day in Prince Albert National Park would make it even better.”

“Scenery, fall colors, geese, migrating sparrows and shore birds, moose and multiple opportunities to see whooping cranes. This tour shows Saskatchewan at its best. Ken and Rudolph know all the best places and were eager to make sure we all got an opportunity to see the birds. A real plus was the time we spent in the boreal region, allowing up close and personal views of spruce grouse.”

“We certainly saw Whooping Cranes. Lots of them. Along the way we also added an impressive number of lifers to our lists and saw some beautiful country. We visited several habitats and I personally learned a lot about sparrow ID. The two guides, Ken and Rudy, are old friends, and they were so much fun! They know the area exceedingly well and between the two of them they don’t miss a thing. Having 100 huge white cranes fly over our heads at dusk, close enough to hear the wing flapping and the whooping as they land, was a magical experience. The “rivers” of geese flying overhead at many stops on the way was also breathtaking. A very special bonus for me personally was the Kentucky Warbler, appearing Saskatoon while we were there, that I got to see thanks to Ken and Rudy. I look forward to joining them in Manitoba for some owling.”

“Whooping Cranes were seen on the very first day. Guides are very knowledgeable! Picnics are great. Just a fun time with my fellow birders!”

“I enjoyed the trip, leaders and outings. The chosen picnic sites were delightful and sightings of the cranes, way more than we anticipated. I will mention that we thought we were birding for 5 days when in reality it was only 3. I would suggest an added day to comfortably include the driving as always arriving late 8:00 to 08:30 for dinner and then do the checklist.”
