You’ll hike steep trails before sunrise, soak in jungle hot springs, and log lifers daily with expert local guides who know every call in the forest. Stay in lodges made for birders—early breakfasts, quiet trails, and feeders outside your room. With over a dozen Colombian endemics on the itinerary this is South America’s richest birding circuit, distilled into one unforgettable trip.

Wonders of Palau: Rays, Reefs & More!
This 10-night adventure is for travelers who feel most at home in the water. With more marine biodiversity than most countries ten times its size, Palau is a diver’s and snorkeler’s dream—alive with giant clams, sea turtles, pelagic fish, reef sharks, and over 700 species of coral.
Swim along vibrant reef walls, drift alongside manta rays in nutrient-rich channels, and paddle through tangled mangrove forests where juvenile fish dart among the roots.
