Learn MoreThis is an outstanding tour which showcases many geographical sites, wonderful birds and some fantastic mammals. Etosha NP is a jewel but so are several other places we visited, notably Erongo. Our lodges were all really comfortable and some were superb. Julian is an outstanding guide: very knowledgeable, pleasant, and committed to making his guests have an exceptional time. We have done a lot of trips with Rockjumper but this is certainly one of the very best and I recommend it very highly.
This tour was a pleasant surprise and exceeded expectations. For a “budget” tour, I was expecting much more basic accommodations, especially for Madagascar. I was happy with where we stayed, there was almost always WiFi and electricity available, which I hadn’t been relying on. The food at the Bamboo Club was especially nice, and the grounds at the Au Bois Vert were the perfect place to start a tour, with plenty of garden birds to start a baseline understanding of Madagascar birds with. Stu was a wonderful leader, and did the lords work to get everyone on each bird, despite the varying degrees of experience by participants on the trip. Despite only 10-11 days of birding, we cleaned up a huge number of Madagascar endemics and I was happy with all the birds seen and photos taken, despite occasional environmental and logistical challenge as expected in Madagascar. This was a great trip, I’m happy I was able to go, and I would go out of my way to join another tour with Stu as the leader any day.
It was a wonderful time with wonderful people!!
Really enjoyed the pace of the trip. I would encourage you to provide more Relaxed Tours in the future. Highlights for me were the Clearwater Tour and Ulva Island.
Here is my humble evaluation - Overall - both main trip & extension are enlightening and worthwhile to experience the Amazonas, and to see the endemic amazonia birds 🐦⬛, some very rare and localized. Birding the bird islands is one of the best, unlike in other parts of the world. Boat birding is easy, but difficult in amazon forests because birds are small, quick and very high up on trees under hot conditions, but trails are good and level. Guides - Bradley of course is an expert bird guide, excellent organization and helpful details toward each participants. Dusan always helpful and humorous, made all efforts to ensure everyone sees the bird well. Lodges - all comfortable and clean. Amazonia Park Suites better than expected. Meals - adequate, satisfied. Enjoyed the delicacy local fishes. Insects - I got many bad bites still not recovered yet, the dark brown bites increases in size lengthwise leaving dark big patches on the body. Dusan said they are from the forest, maybe ticks, but I suspect those are mites or fleas from the boat. It should be warned in the tour description page. Birthday - a special feature in Rockjumper tours, I had a blast celebrating my birthday, thanks!
Buru island offered quite a few new endemic birds despite the sometimes challenging conditions. Our guides -Glen Valentine and Dusan Brinkhuizen provided their incredible skills in showing us these birds and made our time there very enjoyable. We believe this trip is very worthwhile for serious birders and we recommend it without a doubt.
