Birding master!! - Rolin is a magician at finding birds! He is truly gifted and I would recommend him as your guide. We spent 5 days with him in the Madre de... read more Dios and it was a very rewarding trip.

  Wonderful & Educational Birding Tour with Rolin!  - We had the pleasure of joining Birding Expeditions Peru for the Birding near Lima – Full Day Tour yesterday, guided by Rolin, and it was an unforgettable experience.

The... read more day began early with a drive to Pucusana, where we took a short boat ride around the bay. The scenery was beautiful, but the real highlight was the incredible birdlife. We saw Peruvian Pelicans, Red-legged and Guanay Cormorants, Blue-footed Boobies, and the striking Inca Tern, among many others. Sea lions added an extra thrill, making the outing feel like a true immersion into Peru’s coastal ecosystem.

Afterwards, we traveled to the wetlands of Pantanos de Villa, which offered a completely different landscape and an impressive range of species. Watching waterfowl and marsh birds in their natural habitat was both peaceful and exciting. Rolin made sure we didn’t just spot the birds, but understood their behaviors, migration patterns, and the importance of the habitat that sustains them.

What really made the day special was Rolin’s expertise and passion. He was patient, enthusiastic, and an excellent teacher, explaining the delicate balance of these ecosystems and the conservation challenges they face. His insights made the experience not just a birding trip, but a genuine learning opportunity.

The logistics were smooth, the pace was comfortable, and everything was handled professionally. We came away inspired, educated, and with a deep appreciation for Peru’s coastal birdlife.

Highly recommended—five stars!

  A perfect birding tour in Peru  - Ŵe had 17 very interesting days with our dedicated guide Rolin Flores and different very safe drivers touring Tambopata NR, Carretera de Manu, Lago Titticaca, the costline and eventually the... read more Andes going up from the cost. An allover beautiful nature experience. The logdes were better than expected, so was the food. Rolin, you made our trip perfect with your attention on our needs and wishes and your enormous knowlege about nature and birds. We highly recommend this company and Rolin for birding Peru.

  Fantastic 5-day tour, including macaw salt lick  - Wow! We had a fantastic time birding with Rolin ("Ray") for several days! Ray picked us up at the Puerto Maldonado airport and helped us get settled into a PM... read more hotel that afternoon and showed us around town a bit.

On our first full day, we all went on the Tambopata River, seeing birdlife (and a dozing capybara with its "child"!) along the way. We stayed at the upscale ecolodge Refugio Amazonas, a good jumping off point to see the renowned macaw clay licks, which we did the following morning. Those macaws (and plenty of parrots, too) were really a sight to see! Ray was always really helpful and attentive to our viewing, and photographing, needs. 👍

We then traveled to Lago Sandoval, a pristine lake filled with all kinds of wildlife (e.g., Hoatzin up close on low perches above the water, river otters, huge fish jumping). This was fairly remote, though not terribly far from Puerto Maldonado: no roads reach there, so it's accessible only by riverboat at first, then a roughly 3km walk along a long boardwalk through forested areas, then finally a canoe ride to the ecolodge. And, yes, Ray did all the hard work of paddling! 🛶👍

The last birding stop overnight was at a very scenic ecolodge a little north of Puerto Maldonado (Paradise Amazon Lodge). Amazing scenery and really good for birds! We even saw an Olive Oropendola, among other lifers!

Again, Ray was always super helpful all along the way. His knowledge of birdlife is incredible, and he can spot (and hear) them right away, and of course he helped us get a good look (and photo) whenever possible.

Above all that, Rolin ("Ray") is just a really nice guy, and we enjoyed our time with him tremendously. 👍👏

  Birding with fun (& funny) experts  - Intense, interesting, non-stop birding for 5 days. A wonderful way to get an idea of the Tambopata area and all its amazing birds.

  Wonderful day birding around Lima  - I found Birding Expeditions Peru through a Google search, and I highly recommend their services. Ray, my wonderful and knowledgeable guide, accompanied me to several sites around Lima including Pucusana... read more and Pantanos de Villa. He was incredibly skilled, friendly, and spoke excellent English. We even had a delicious ceviche lunch. We saw over 130 unique species. I would like to book one of their bespoke tours to more remote locations in Peru in the future. Thank you for an unforgettable experience!
