Itinerary

  • N/A

    Marine and coastal birds at Cabo Pino and Calaburras lighthouse (Calahonda marine protected area), especially abundant in winter and during the migration season.

    1 hour 30 minutes

  • N/A

    Visiting the Guadalhorce Estuary is compulsory since this site is one of the most attractive wetlands in Andalusia and undoubtedly one of the best bird watching sites in Spain (!). As expected, many waterfowl and waders await us. On the best days, experienced birdwatchers spot up to a hundred species in this small reserve.

    2 hours 30 minutes

  • Malaga

    Our long circuit will take us to the Rio Grande, another interesting place with riparian forest.

    1 hour

  • Mirador de Juanar

    We will then visit El Juanar, a 'white' limestone mountain, with beautiful views over the Costa del Sol and Africa. The timing should be good for some birds of prey. On hot days, the pine forest will protect us a little from the heat.

    1 hour 30 minutes

  • Parque Nacional Sierra De Las Nieves

    Next, we move to a small Mediterranean reservoir and stream, which flows from the nearby Sierra de Las Nieves National Park, where a more impressive biodiversity awaits us.

    1 hour 30 minutes

Birding in Andalusia in May

Published on May, 2024

My wife and I booked this birding tour and it was one of our favorite days on our two week trip. Florent picked us up from our hotel in Malaga (which we were grateful for and also not easy for him I imagine!) He was friendly, kind and knew not just about birds but the insects and the plants as well! We learned a ton and felt a lot more grounded in the landscapes we were in because of his expertise. He tailored the outing to me specifically and what birds I was interested in seeing and I was able to spot 30 new species on my life list! We definitely recommend this birding tour! Thank you Florent!

Fantastic Birding with G3 guides

Published on May, 2024

Florent was a great birding guide with a vast amount of scientific knowledge on the birds, flora, fauna, insects and ecosystems of the Andalucia region. He was punctual, pleasant and cheerful as he guided us through his home territory on our birding adventure. We would recommend him to anyone who is truly interested in exploring nature in Andalucia. Thank you Florent!!!

Exactly what we needed - don't miss this guided tour!

Published on Apr, 2024

We had an absolutely perfect day with Florent. For starters, he picked us up at the train station making the trip possible for us. Once at the Fuentes de Piedra lagoon, he quickly got nesting flamingos in his scope, and enabled us to take fabulous pictures. He explained the ecology surrounding their food and their habitat. We also got to see a long of 38 birds we had never seen before, including some rare birds and ducks. Additionally, he had fascinating background on insects such as the life cycle of the blister beetle. Next he took us to El Torcal. Just a few of the highlights of what we saw thanks to his keen eye included an Ibex, a Timon lepidus lizard, a Melodious Warbler, a nightingale, and several fascinating plant species such as the Sawfly Orchid. Florent and his intern, Anne-Alice, were both a total delight - friendly, personable, knowledgeable and fun. I can't recommend this tour highly enough!

Hard to find a better guide

Published on Mar, 2024

Florent navigated seamlessly mountain roads, three languages, my slightly apprehensive companions on their first guided birding tour to ensure that everyone had an excellent experience. He is a treasure trove of birds, insects, reptiles and plants. As a bonus he also explained cultural practices of cork oaks, olives, almonds and even goat cheese.

WONDERFUL TOUR!

Published on Mar, 2024

Florent was extremely kind, professional and knowledgeable. He took me to some incredibly beautiful places! What an amazing day!
