Royal TernTurquoise-browed Motmot, or TohHere in the state of Yucatán we have 432 of the 540 bird species registered for the entire Yucatan peninsula. Just in Ría Lagartos Biosphere Reserve more Than 350 different bird species have been recorded.

The best way to enjoy your birding and natural history experience is to be accompanied by a local guide who has been trained to identify birds with their English names. This permits you to visit places you never would have found on your own, as well as to better understand local costums, beliefs and practices.

Elmer leading a birding tourWe can also take you to other good birding spots. In Quintana Roo to our east we can go to Cozumel and Felipe Carrillo Puerto (Sian Ka'an). In Campeche we go to Calakmul. Here in Yucatan we can visit Chichén Itzá, Río Lagartos, Celestún, etc.

I hope you will let me guide you around. My guiding fee, with someone else driving, is $100US/day. If I drive it's $140US/day. This price includes night birding if you're interested.
