What will happen when is the solo traveler who opens the date for other birders to join and
there is no other booking for that date? Solo travelers opening a Shared Bird Outings
will be charged the minimum of participants required to offer a trip if the minimum is not
reached.Rescheduling the trip is not allowed, payments are non-refundable.Solo travelers
must provide their own transportation.
Regular bird outings and Shared Events are not considered bird photography trips, you
should bring binoculars, not cameras. Many birders are complaining that birders with a
camera delay the birding in order to take their pictures. If you want to take your best shots,
consider booking a private bird photography trip. Nevertheless, we have all-inclusive birding
packages for bird photographers. I you don´t have binoculars, we rent binoculars for birders
over 18 years old. We reserve the right of admission.
