10-hour private birdwatching tour from Leticia into Colombia’s Amazon: expert birder guide, spot endemic species on jungle trails, breakfast en route, traditional lunch at Maloka Cuchira community + optional river swim, hotel transfers, all meals and insurance included.
Venture deep into Colombia’s Amazon rainforest on a full-day birdwatching adventure from Leticia, where you’ll trek lush jungle trails with an expert birder guide to spot some of the world’s richest avian diversity—over 1,000 bird species call this region home, including toucans, macaws, parrots, hummingbirds, and countless colorful tanagers and antbirds.
Your private guide picks you up at your hotel in Leticia and leads you into a protected reserve and local Indigenous community, sharing deep knowledge of endemic birds, Amazonian flora, and fauna while keeping a respectful, low-impact approach. Walk quiet trails to observe birds in their natural habitat, enjoy a breakfast stop, take a refreshing dip in the river if you wish, savor a traditional lunch at Maloka Cuchira, and wrap up with a talk on ancestral traditions and the deep connection between the community and nature.
This 9-hour private experience (your group only) includes hotel pickup/drop-off in Leticia, land transportation, breakfast, lunch, and all risk insurance—perfect for birdwatchers seeking an authentic, immersive day in one of the planet’s most biodiverse regions.
Real talk: the jungle is humid and buggy—bring insect repellent, comfortable closed-toe shoes for muddy trails, and a rain jacket; moderate fitness required for ~3–4 hours of walking.
Exclusive for your party—book early for dry season (May–October) when trails are easier and bird activity peaks.
Here's practical advice to help your Amazon birdwatching day go well, based on common experiences with jungle conditions, wildlife, and weather. We've pulled this from what past guests told us after their trips.
Common issues. Not wheelchair accessible—jungle terrain. Guests found moderate fitness sufficient; no major climbs. Weather rarely cancels; dress in layers.
High likelihood—Colombia’s Amazon has the world’s highest bird diversity. Guides maximize sightings; guests saw toucans, macaws, hummingbirds, and more most trips.
Moderate—short trails, some uneven ground. Guests with average fitness handled it fine; guides adjust pace.
Yes for ages 5+ who handle long days and jungle conditions. Families said older kids loved the birds and swim, but supervise closely.
Limited—lunch is simple (rice, beans, veggies). Notify early for adjustments. Guests found options sufficient.
Trails and river give great angles—bring a good zoom lens or phone with stabilizer. Guides pause for shots when birds appear.
Private group, expert birder guide, jungle trek, Indigenous community visit, river swim, and cultural talk. Past guests preferred the immersive, authentic feel and local guide over larger or less-focused tours.
