Bird Watching

Make Some Feathered Friends

Not all of the fascinating animals of the Galapagos are underwater. Some incredible creatures call the air above the islands home as well.

The Galapagos islands are habitat to numerous indigenous, endemic and migratory bird species. From the famous Blue-Footed Boobie to the elusive Pajaro Brujo, birdwatchers have plenty to pursue.

If you are an avid birdwatcher we can design an itinerary that is avian focused. While we cannot guarantee any wildlife sightings, we can put you where the birds are.

Our itinerary specialists can help you to determine the ideal islands and activities to maximize the number of species you may see during your limited time in the islands.

"We are so happy we decided to do a land based tour with Galapagos Alternative. It's the best way to go! They make the process of traveling to the islands simple and don't overcharge. Their use of local tour companies stimulates the local economy and gets you right in the middle of all the action on the islands."
