Northern Range Birding Tours

Explore the lush forests of Trinidad’s mountainous backbone.

The Northern Range is a birder’s paradise - a cool, misty stretch of tropical rainforest bursting with biodiversity. These ancient slopes are home to iconic species like the Bearded Bellbird, White-bearded Manakin, Tufted Coquette, Trinidad Motmot, and the elusive Ornate Hawk-Eagle.

Your guided tour will take you through world-famous locations like the Asa Wright Nature Centre, Blanchisseuse Road, Heights of Aripo, Simla Research Station, Bajnath Estate, and Grande Riviere. Each site offers its own microclimate and specialties, from highland hummingbirds to nesting Leatherback Turtles (seasonal).

Expect early-morning bird song, breathtaking views, and the chance to witness some of Trinidad’s most treasured species in their natural habitat.
Best for: Forest birding, photography, and travelers seeking immersive nature trails.

Wetlands Birding Tours

Birdwatching in Trinidad’s most vital aquatic ecosystems.

Discover a completely different side of the island as you glide through waterways and explore wetland trails with Mukesh as your guide. These tours cover globally important bird habitats such as the Caroni Swamp, Nariva Swamp, El Socorro Marsh, Caroni Rice Fields, Trincity Ponds, Piarco Water Treatment Plant, and the Point-a-Pierre Wildfowl Trust.

Expect to see hundreds of waterbirds including Scarlet Ibis, Black-bellied Whistling Ducks, Southern Lapwings, Snail Kites, and a wide variety of herons, kingfishers, and shorebirds. Caroni Swamp’s mangrove maze is a must-see, especially at sunset when thousands of Scarlet Ibis return to roost.

Mukesh ensures an educational and rewarding journey through these threatened yet thriving ecosystems, often combining boat rides with walk-in marsh access and photographic stops.

Highlights: Scarlet Ibis roost, wetland rarities, seasonal migrants, and boat tours.
Best for: Wildlife photographers, family groups, and wetland enthusiasts.

Foothills & Savannahs Birding Tours

Wide open skies and wild grasslands teeming with surprises.

This tour explores the dynamic interface between forest and field, a transitional habitat where both woodland and grassland species thrive. As you journey through Wallerfield, Aripo Savannah, Mt. St. Benedict, the Agricultural Research Station, Arena Forest, and surrounding estates, you'll encounter a blend of biodiversity found nowhere else.

From Red-bellied Macaws flying over the savannahs to Blue-headed Parrots foraging in fruiting trees, these locations are perfect for spotting colorful species like the Lilac-tailed parrotlets, tanagers of all species, Savannah Hawk and other raptors.

Mukesh’s deep familiarity with these areas ensures you’ll find birds that most travelers miss - along with insight into the ecology and conservation challenges of Trinidad’s changing landscapes.

Highlights: Parrot roosts, savannah specialists, foothill species, and possible rarities.

Best for: New and seasoned birders, educational groups, and combination eco-cultural tours.
