COLOMBIA BIRDING, NATURE, AND FISHING TOURS
Come experience the best Birding, Nature and Fishing Tours in Colombia with Colombia Wild Ecotours. You will experience the best Colombia has to offer at an exceptional value. With us, the experience does not stop with birding, nature and fishing.

Despite its relatively small size, Colombia is the second most biologically diverse country on Earth, home to about 10 percent of the world's species. This incredible biodiversity results from Colombia's varied ecosystems-from the rich tropical rainforest to the coastal cloud forests of the Andean cordilleras and paramos to the open savannas and deserts. More than 1,920 species (and counting) of birds occur here with about 70 of them found nowhere else. Truly a Birder's must go destination.
"COLOMBIA, THE BIRDIEST PLACE ON EARTH"
But Colombia's biodiversity does not stop with birds. With a mind-boggling 55,000 species of plants, of which nearly 30 percent are endemic, 623 species of amphibians, 467 species of mammals, 518 species of reptiles, and countless insects, it is a biodiversity haven for birders and nature lovers alike!
Just like its diverse topography and biodiversity, the country has a varied cultural heritage including indigenous peoples, and peoples of African and European descent which is evident in the gastronomy, handcrafts, music and architecture.
In recent years, tourism has taken a priority place in the economic development of the country making tourist designations extremely safe. Rightly so, the slogan that launched tourism in Colombia was...
“COLOMBIA, THE ONLY RISK IS WANTING TO STAY"
