Testimonials
Here are some of the comments we've received from our clients. We greatly appreciate their feedback and the opportunity to guide them on their birding adventures.
We are a birder and a non-birder and we both had a great morning viewing birds in and around Mazatlán. A quarry, an estuary, and a park all provided a great variety of birds (40-50 in all). Shorebirds, ducks, storks, frigate birds, warblers, and much more. Our guide was friendly and very knowledgeable about the birds, and was able to point out so many around us. He also included general information about the places we visited. It was definitely the best day of our week-long stay in Mazatlán.

I purchased this experience for my 22-year-old son as part of a birthday gift. We were on a cruise and stopped in Mazatlan for a day. This was the highlight of my son‘s vacation. And he frequently references all of the birds and other animals that he saw. The hosts were amazing and it was a great experience all around.

We had a wonderful day of bird watching! We’re first time bird watchers curious about the birds and wildlife in the area. Not only was the tour amazingly informative but we saw parts of Mazatlan that we would have never seen otherwise. Jose Ramon was a fabulous guide and his enthusiasm and expertise shone through as he toured us around the beautiful wetlands of Mazatlan. We’re so glad we found this tour and had the chance to do something totally different than we would normally do in Mazatlan. Don’t miss this one!

We booked a half day excursion with Bird Watching Mazatlán and had a great time. Jose has a great eye and helped us spot 61 different species!!

A highlight of our trip to Mazatlán! We were a group of three beginners, and Jose’s enthusiasm and knowledge were such an inspiration. Highly recommend for beginners and advanced birders alike. We saw over 70 species on our tour, including 4 kinds of heron and a pair of painted buntings. I hope Jose can bring his tours to the Mazatlan resorts. I think they would be a big hit with tourists visiting Mazatlan.

What a wonderful experience! I went with a friend and we were both so impressed with the sheer amount of birds we saw, almost all of which were completely new to us. Our guide, Jose, picked us up and drove us an hour and a half or so out into the Sierra Madre to the Tufted Jay Preserve. The area is stunning and we pulled over for photos of the mountains several times. Jose was extremely knowledgeable and thoughtful on the whole trip. He was an excellent guide and shared the professional photos he took of the birds we saw with us. I’m so glad we decided to do this tour. The hiking was moderate, through pine forest on logging roads for the most part, and at a high altitude, so plan accordingly for your trip. Definitely book with them!
