The programme

We will disembark and leave the port comfortably seated on an air-conditioned coach, ready to embark on a sightseeing tour south of Cartagena, where the densely populated areas on the coast gradually make way for unspoilt nature and all the wonders it has to offer.
After about an hour, we will reach our destination: The National Aviary of Colombia. This ornithological park is home to over 135 species of bird and is the biggest of its kind in the whole of Colombia.
Colombia boasts thriving avian biodiversity. Within its borders, there are around 1,900 species of bird, 197 of which are migratory, 86 endemic and 15 at risk of extinction. Those at risk of extinction include the majestic Andean Condor, Colombia's national bird.
We will walk through the incredible park, following a path that takes us to 21 different display areas, ranging from large birds –some of which allow access for direct contact with the birds– to marshland and small lakes, which each create the most ideal natural habitat to host the park's feathered guests.
During the visit, we will have the chance to see multi-coloured birds up close, from shy flamingos to the friendlier Toucans, and to take some stunning photographs that we can look back on when we get home.
After the walk, we will make a short stop for refreshments before getting back on the coach to return to the port.
