Bird Watching Safaris
We have been organizing and guiding professional bird watching safaris in East Africa for a number of years now and we believe that we can professionally host your East Africa bird watching safari.
Like most of the old European explorers, used to believe; that "An education of a gentleman is to be completed with a Grand Tour to Africa" we believe that every self-respecting international bird watcher should visit Africa at least once and do a 'Grand' bird watching tour to East Africa to see various exclusively found here.
Our chief commitment down here is to offer you a wonderful and a most enjoyable bird watching safari, that will possibly take you to see the African Endemics; anything from the beautiful Turacos, Mighty Ostriches, Huge Ground Hornbills, and some impressive Guineafowls, Inquisitive Woodhoopes, the elegant Secretary Bird, the rare Shoebill, The Hammerkop, Mousebirds and a great collection of the African Barbets among other hundreds of impressive species.
Our tours normally visit most of the Important Biodiversity Areas (I.B.A’s), where we see many East African specialties, as well as Endemics. In a two weeks safari, we normally record approximately 400 species on a comfortable bird watching safari, although depending with the season; we can even record as many as 600 plus species in just two weeks. In February 2006 we hosted and guided a tour that has broken the African Birding Record with 913 species in one month throughout East Africa on a comfortable birding safari. However our motto is to offer ‘quality’ birding not 'quantity' birding and usually we prefer spending at least 2 nights in almost every place. Most of our bird watching is done by foot, but in most of our protected areas with dangerous wild animals we do our birding in the comfort and safety of our special safari specialized vehicles.
Since we are Local Bird Guides, Local Operator and due to the fact that we travel a lot, we know many local birding hotspots than most of the other casual bird watching companies. Most of our tours also visit many places where regular or casual birding groups do not visit and hence ensuring you most of unusual records. We are also the only company in our region, which can be able to take you to some of the places out of the tourist's circuit, as well as provide first hand information.
We cater for all levels of birders from amateurs, experienced and serious professional birders to bird clubs, as well as physically handicapped birders. There are also special itineraries for a regular East African birder and we do not mind receiving a list of local birds that you would really like to see and then we design you an itinerary based on your individual target list.
Not just in Kenya, but all round EAST AFRICA…within where we organize and guide professional or even casual birding excursions to full tours. EAST AFRICA is home to myriad of different types of birds, some as colorful and captivating as it can ever be…AND…we know what you would really like to see or photography, hence our tours promises you nothing less, but a thrilling and a mind boggling experience!!
