A National Aviary of Colombia tour<\/strong> is the easiest way to meet the country’s remarkable birdlife without leaving the Cartagena area. On the Bar\u00fa peninsula, about 45 minutes from the city, the aviary is home to more than 130 bird species from across Colombia, from pink flamingos and colorful toucans to powerful eagles, displayed in walk-through habitats.<\/p>\n

It is a relaxed half-day outing that suits families, photographers and nature lovers, and a colorful contrast to the city’s forts and plazas. The tour is private, with your own driver, bilingual guide and air-conditioned vehicle, and takes about 4 to 5 hours in total.<\/p>\n

How the National Aviary of Colombia tour works<\/h2>\n

Your private driver and bilingual guide meet you at your hotel, vacation rental or the Cartagena cruise terminal, with the pickup time confirmed the day before. From there it is about 45 minutes south along the road to the Bar\u00fa peninsula.<\/p>\n

At the aviary you walk at your own pace through the habitats, while your guide points out species and explains where in Colombia each one lives. Take as long as you like with the flamingos, toucans or birds of prey you enjoy most; there is no group to keep up with. When you are ready, you head back to Cartagena. Mornings are a pleasant time to visit, before the warmest part of the day, and your guide can help you plan the route so you see the species that interest you most.<\/p>\n

If birds and wildlife are your passion, our Tayrona National Park and Sierra Nevada guide<\/a> explains the endemic species of Colombia’s Caribbean region.<\/p>\n

Why go private with us<\/h2>\n

The private format makes this a good option for families with children and for travelers with limited mobility, since there are no long hikes and the pace is flexible. Aviary entrance is included, along with air-conditioned round-trip transport. Your bilingual guide turns a pleasant walk into a lesson on Colombia’s birdlife, and cruise passengers benefit from pickup right at the terminal.<\/p>\n

Because the vehicle and guide cost the same for the whole group, the price per person goes down as your group grows, which works in favor of families and friends traveling together.<\/p>\n

Good to know before your visit<\/h2>\n

Wear comfortable walking shoes, light clothing, a hat and sunscreen. The habitats are open-air and warm, so bring water and insect repellent. A camera with a zoom lens or a pair of binoculars makes the visit even better. Please do not feed or touch the birds, and follow the instructions of the aviary staff. Food, drinks and tips are not included.<\/p>\n
