ABOUT US

Colombia Wild Ecotours is an independent and privately owned company born out of a combination of a love of Colombia's landscapes, peoples, and fauna, and a desire to actively work with and support local communities.

As Colombians, we are intimately familiar with the people and places we'll visit. Our goal is to provide you with an amazing experience during your visit to Colombia. While our tours focus on quality birding, fishing and natural history, we will introduce you to local people, their cultures, music, traditions, and foods, and combine places that are `off the beaten track' and rarely seen with traditional destinations of each of the regions we visit. Our tours are set in a relaxed atmosphere, where good friends are made and good times are shared. We strive to provide a superior service for our clients while getting to know each other as we travel throughout Colombia, the world's hottest destination.

"We strive to create tours that are as enriching and memorable as they are comfortable. The result is a travel experience that is both unforgettable and unique."

Whether you book a Birding or Nature Tour or a Fishing Expedition, at Colombia Wild Ecotours we offer you an immersion into Colombia's wonders that are sure to dazzle you. Here's why:

The best guides

We have spent a great deal of effort to partner up with local NGO's and their guides to ensure an unforgettable experience. Whether you're birding or experiencing Colombia's natural wonders they are sure to amaze you with their superb skills.

All inclusive costs

At Colombia Wild, our tour costs are all-inclusive (except international flights and mandatory insurance). While in Colombia, you will enjoy mostly deluxe accommodations (any deviations from this are a result of the remoteness of the area we visit, although cleanliness, comfort and some luxuries are still the norm.), air conditioned transportation, entrance fees, tips, snacks, water, excellent meals, and complementary wine and beer at selected destinations.

Small group sizes

We cater to everyone but have one simple rule. Except under exceptional circumstances, tour sizes should not exceed ten participants. We do this to ensure that you get the personalized attention you deserve.

Custom Tours

Our custom tours are tailored specifically to meet all your needs. We span the whole spectrum of choices, from hard core to your desired pace and comfort. See our custom tours section for more details.

In our tours, we cater to birders, naturalists, and anglers of all skill levels; they are designed in such a way that everyone will get the most out of Colombia. We also have the friendliest and most skilled leaders and local guides who are eager to share Colombia's wonders with you. Because the conservation of Colombia's rich biodiversity is largely dependent on stewardship initiatives that stem from the local communities, we have established and built partnerships with local non-profit organizations and their guides who share our sustainable tourism philosophy and passion for the conservation of Colombia's natural resources. In all our tours, you will be accompanied by myself (Ernest Leupin) and the best local guides. As Colombians, we all take pride in showing off our Country. We will make sure that everything in our trip runs smoothly and make sure everyone has a fantastic time.
