Hey everyone. As the title states, I will be going to Mexico on July 18th and I was wondering if anyone has recommendations for birding tours? I've looked up a few and there's some I can book online but I'm not too sure if I should wait and try and book them through my hotel or book them in advance online (don't wanna get scammed). Also don't know how I would organize getting to the tour as I don't know if they pick up from hotels or if I have to taxi somewhere etc. I'm staying at the Grand Sunset Hotels if that helps.

Any info helps ^.^ Thanks!

Hey Jacob! Wow Lucky you!

I suggest sending Liron a PM when he gets back from the Peace I am sure he will be happy to help. He had a great tour guide in Puerto Vallarto who picked him up from his hotel and helped show him some amazing endemic birds! It all depends where you are going in Mexico of course but Liron said this guy is one of the absolute best in this part of Mexico and from his trip I believe it. I think you are going to Cancun though ?

In the meantime here is a great book you should take with you:

Have a great trip! Can't wait to hear all about it and see your photos!
