Outstanding Conservation Experience

Peter_S, Apr 2025

A great opportunity to view three species of macaws and numerous parrot species that are being rehabilitated to be released to the wild. The biologists/guides explained their fantastic mission and success rate and spoke perfect English. This is a good organization to support! In addition to the birds, there was a chance to see some wild but rehabilitated monkeys (no luck for us), plant a tree to provide food and shelter for released parrots, explore the dry forest, and panoramic views from the top of the mountain at the release point. Horseback riding and UTV rides also available. For birders - the property was full of other birds including a small pond with water birds.

Hi Peter! Thank you so much for your thoughtful and encouraging review! We’re thrilled to hear you enjoyed the experience and connected with our mission to rehabilitate and reintroduce parrots and macaws into their natural habitat. We hope to welcome you back one day for another adventure! Thanks again for supporting our work!

Wonderful Experience that is not to be missed!!

Donated a little time to the Fundación Loros, Parrot Rehabilitation center (they also assist other animals including Monkeys - have a few pics). They can release most back into the wild. Small effort on our part to help prepare food - showing one table here but there were many others. The last picture is a released parrot hanging out in a tree near the last aviary they stay in before being released. The pre-release cage is closer to the mountains and helps them and the wild birds to get to know one another so hopefully they are accepted into a community. Thank you Fundacion Loros for the tremendous work you are doing, the incredible team you have, the generosity you show and the alliance you’ve built with local farmers so you ‘train’ the birds by not feeding them what the farmers grow (so when released the birds don’t eat their crops!) We loved the education we received! This is a must do tour!!

Thank you so much for sharing this experience and for dedicating your time to be part of our mission. We deeply appreciate your help preparing food and learning about the pre-release process—every contribution supports the safe return of these birds to the wild. Thanks for being part of something meaningful and for helping make this project stronger through your presence. We’d love to welcome you back anytime!
