About this package
A one-day outing to Paz de las Aves, a cloud forest reserve in the Mindo area devoted to birdwatching. You go with a certified guide who knows the trails and knows where and when to look. The star bird is the Andean Cock-of-the-rock (Rupicola peruvianus), a striking, emblematic bird of the Andean cloud forests that many birders dream of seeing. It includes a certified guide, transport and entrance fees. It is a good option if you only have one day and want to spend it at one particular reserve.
