Colombia: a birding & ecological paradise

Colombia hosts more bird species than any other country! With almost 1,900 bird species, one fifth of the planet’s bird diversity, Colombia is a must for any serious birder.

Colombia is the epicentre of the earth’s biological riches, a treasure chest of unparalleled diversity in many fauna and flora groups, such as amphibians, butterflies and orchids.

Colombia is extraordinary for birds and biodiversity because of its strategic location –at the gateway to Central and South America and a remarkable topography with three huge mountain ranges that straddle the equator and harbour an unrivalled complex of ecosystems.

Colombia covers over 700,000 sq miles of spectacular landscapes from glaciers to vast tropical forest expanses of the Amazon and includes over 600 miles of coastlines on both the Pacific and the Caribbean.

Colombia also hosts a great diversity of ethnic and modern cultures with distinctive regional traditions and many historical sites. Colombians are renowned for their passion, warmth and hospitality.

Contrary to its sensational international reputation, Colombia has made huge strides in isolating and controlling social unrest since 2000, and is one of the most stable democracies in the Americas, with over a decade of strong economic growth.

Until recently Colombia had been a largely forgotten part of the Americas for birding and ecotourism, but due to the improved situation ecotourism is rapidly increasing.

Don't miss your opportunity to safely visit this spectacular country of discovery with us. By doing so, you will be contributing to the conservation of some of South America's most threatened birds.
