Carlos and Renata were fabulous guides. They made us feel very comfortable and Carlos’ knowledge and experience is incredible.

Unfortunately, I did not go on the tour. However, I still wanted to share this experience for fellow bird friends that might think about going.
I tried booking through Tripadvisor, but as the minimum number of people is 2, as a solo traveler, it was not possible.
Thus I went to the official website and contacted them using their contact form, as instructed on the website. This was one week before the planned tour - to date I have still not received an answer.
After some days, I contacted Carla through Whatsapp. Her number is provided on the website for spontaneous booking requests. For days, she ignored my message.
Two days later I contacted Sergio - same Carla his number was on the website. He read my message and just ignored it. To date, I have still not received an answer.
2 days before the tour I tried calling Sergio twice. No answer. I also tried calling Carla, no answer either.
1 day before the trip I tried Carla again twice. And only after that she texted back that they don‘t have enough registrations. After which she just blocked me on Whatsapp.
So just a bad overall service.

Great birding experience with Carlos and Louis! The combination of these two gentleman is something I won’t forget quickly. Louis, the enthusiastic, super-friendly driver and Carlos, the wise and funny birding expert.
We’ve seen 18 different bird species, with the European Roller and Osprey (with fish in his claws) as two highlights.
Definitely recommend to book with North Birding Tours; not because they’re the only birding agency in Porto, but simply because they’re the best!
We always double-check the availability with our local partners for each booking. Even though this is usually a swift process, it can take up to 24 hours. Once this process is completed you will receive your voucher or ticket by email. If our local partner is not able to confirm your booking we will offer you the best possible alternative. If the new date and/or time doesn’t fit your itinerary, we will reimburse the full amount paid.
How great that you want to share your experience! Your feedback helps other travelers to make a better choice.
