Extraordinary experience with Oli and Jesus on this hike. Everything about the trip was easy and straightforward. This is a unique ecosystem with remarkable biodiversity. It was thrilling to see the critically endangered wooly capped tamarins that are endemic to this area, as well as a wide range of beautiful birds, insects, and animals (see photos). I highly recommend this trip for birders and naturalists who want to experience this remarkable part of the natural world.

I highly recommend this experience. Oli was our guide during a very memorable hike in the Colombian dry forest. During the trek we saw several groups of cotton-top tamarins and red howler monkeys, along with other interesting birds and smaller critters. Howler vocalizations often filled the forest, making the experience even more thrilling.
The provided breakfast and lunch were very good, and the breaks gave us a chance to learn about Colombia and get to know one another.
I really appreciated Oli's communication leading up to the hike and his punctuality, but especially his friendly demeanor and passion for his country's flora and fauna. I've been fortunate to book similar experiences around the world, but our day with Oli stands out. Thank you!
