All went smoothly. Birds were plentiful. Glad we were on boats to get into their roosting areas (at a distance). Our guide, Khalil, was great!

Rip off....RIP OFF....Didn't see anything.. There are more birds in my backyard....you have a lot of nerve ripping people off....a lot of people on the tour were pissed....I would like my money back.
Best choice if you can spare an afternoon/evening in Trinidad

This is my third time doing this trip, and while the novelty has worn off and the actual number of birds (especially egrets) has diminished over the years (although now flamingos are frequent when there used to be none), it is still the best thing to see on Trinidad!
Birds and Wildlife galore!

Very relaxing boat trip up the river with lots of wildlife sightings, e.g. snakes and birds. Enjoyed watching the Scarlet Ibis coming home to roost. our guide, Ginelle, from Island Experiences was excellent.
Absolute Amazing Experience!

My mam and I went in this tour together and had the pleasure of meeting our driver and guide, Kaleel. He picked us up from our hotel, we felt very comfortable and welcome in his vehicle. When we got to the swamp, it was overcast and looked as if it was going to rain, and he let us borrow his personal umbrella, which was very nice of him. We really enjoyed seeing the beautiful birds, and the swamp itself was stunning! 100% recommend this tour, it’s a must when visiting Trinidad! Cameras do the beauty of these birds no justice, you must see it with you own eyes. Thank you to Kaleel and the tour operators for adding to my mam and I’d first trip to Trinidad :)

The swamp was actually way more beautiful than expected! The Red Ibis and flamingos were spectacular among other wildlife!
