BIRDWATCHING · BIRD SANCTUARY & PARK VISITS
A sanctuary is the reliable option: the birds are there, the paths are dry and the entry is cheap. These 15 range from wild reserves with hides to walk-through aviaries, priced, timed, and clear about which are wild and which are not.

“The birds were great would be better if we could also feed the birds to so that the birds want to interact with us as well as the tour guide obviously not the really big birds. But still a good experience.”
Review of the Brazilian side of Iguazu Falls and Bird Park tour from Puerto Iguazu, with border tips, costs, timing, and honest advice.
“The guide was great. I was the only non Spanish fluent speaker and he always made sure I knew what was happening before moving on. I was glad to have the seamlessness of the border crossings. I liked having the opportunity to go at my pace with reliable transportation. Everything was great!”
See free-flying tropical birds, lorikeets, parrots, reptiles, and nocturnal creatures at Niagara Falls’ Bird Kingdom.
“My adult daughter and I met a group at the Bird Kingdom for another activity and decided if time permitted, we would go back. When our Aerial Cable Car ride was cancelled due to thunder and wind, we were fortunate to realize a WeGo bus was right at the venue and would take us back to “the Birds” . So, we arrived at a relatively empty site – which was great – the first two floors were primarily history (which we had already experienced at the Niagara History Museum) and small exhibits of frogs, turtles’ spiders – but the third floor is what you pay for - this is an…”
Review of Bali Bird Park near Ubud, with bird shows, feeding sessions, 4D movie, timing, price, value, and booking advice.
“Easily buy your vouchers upfront in your own currency and exchange at the entrance for your actual entry tickets. The park itself is cosy and full of free roaming birds, walk-in aviaries, etc. There are plenty of activities (feeding sessions etc) and places to buy food and drinks. Recommended activity (although for Bali one of the more expensive entry tickets).”

A practical review of Punta Arenas’ King Penguin Reserve tour, covering ferries, long drives, costs, wildlife, weather, and what to expect.
“The penguins were the best part of this tour. The rest of the tour, including the tour guide, was very subpar. The tour would have been better if it was just to see the penguins and if there weren’t additional filler sites in between to pass time. Our tour guide took us to the local YMCA and an abandoned building as part of the tour; it seemed pretty pointless.”
Review of the Inner Farne boat trip from Seahouses, with puffins, seals, lighthouses, St. Cuthbert’s Chapel, prices, and practical tips.
“A fabulous trip, and we were so delighted to see such a variety of birds up close-especially the Puffins, Arctic Terns and their chicks, and Cormorants. The Seal colonies were impressive too. The Chapel was lovely, and the woodwork particularly impressive. We were lucky with the weather, and the only thing that would have improved the outing is the commentary being louder. It was really informative but quite hard to hear over the noise of the engine. Ticket staff, Crew and National Trust staff couldn't have been more helpful or welcoming. Views of the coast- Bamburgh, Lindisfarne, and the beaches- from sea were beautiful. A really great trip with our…”

Review of Iguassu Falls Brazil with Macuco Safari, helicopter flight and Bird Park, including cost, timing, tips and honest drawbacks.
“It is a full exhausting day, but a truly amazing experience. Because of Eric‘s experience and knowledge, we were able to spend much more time at the falls, then waiting in long lines at the border or at the park. Eric gave us the opportunity to get the real essence of the Iguassu Falls!!”
See Camargue flamingos, white horses, bulls, Saintes-Maries-de-la-Mer, and Aigues-Mortes on a full-day tour from Avignon.
