Birdwatching Tours

Guided Tours

Book a private guided birdwatching tour in the forest surrounding Tacugama, or add one on to your stay after a night in our eco-lodges. Tours typically begin at 7:15AM in order to catch the best sightings. Birds may include turacos, hammerkops, palm-nut vultures, and more!

Guided tours start at 7:15AM and typically last 3 hours. For private bookings, the duration of the tour can be adjusted. Guests typically gather at 7AM and depart at 7:15 for the best bird sightings. Birdwatching is available daily Monday through Saturday.

As sanctuary tours begin promptly at 10:30AM, we recommend not expecting to do a birdwatching tour and sanctuary tour on the same day.

All proceeds go directly to the chimpanzees and conservation programs.

Tours take place on foot, following forest footpaths and unmarked trails. Please wear comfortable clothing/footwear and remember to bring your rain gear in the rainy season. Tours in the rainy-season will be weather-dependent, as many birds will not be active in the rain. You are welcome to bring your camera as there are good opportunities to take the perfect picture.

Bird sightings have included: turacos, hammerkops, palm-nut vultures, honeyeaters. See below for our bird guide.

If you would like to combine your birdwatching tour with a relaxing overnight stay at one of our eco-lodges, make sure to check out the lodge information here and contact us well in advance to make your reservation.
