Since its formation, Rockjumper Birding Tours has been supporting the conservation of the birds that bring us many delightful hours of sheer bird watching pleasure.
Learn MoreBalazs is an outstanding guide. We saw lots of birds well and learned about the history and culture of the countries we visited. Accommodations were great and food was good and plentiful. Great trip!
Enjoyed having the extra cultural experiences of a flamenco show and seeing the Don Quixote windmills. Fabulous Lynx viewing at Cato Clavo where we were able to get super photos. Javi was a very good driver and guide and explained a lot about conservation.
I am new to birding, and Alex got me hooked on this great pastime. His knowledge of Mayan history, botany, local habitats and of course birds is great! A very memorable trip.
Lev was absolutely fantastic. It was quite a hard tour (but easier than I expected, and we've done harder in South America and Indonesia, for example), but he just kept going and kept positive. His organizational skills were very much needed: two cancelled flights, so two nights in top quality hotels provided by Air Niugini, but two days lost birding. And the entire group lost their luggage; as our aircraft took off from Kiunga, we saw the luggage trolly still on the tarmac, piled high with our bags. His help in sorting that out was invaluable. As I write this 10 days after return to the UK, our luggage has just arrived at Heathrow! We go to collect it tomorrow. Of course, his birding skills were fantastic, he had a really good relationship with the various Lodge staff we met and he really got on with the local guides treating them as equals and valuing their input. You could see these guys opening up to him as time went on (this was much better than some - sadly British - Tour Leaders we have known, who seem to think that shouting is the answer to any issue!). Amanda Guercio did a marvellous job as Lev's No.2. She was far more capable than she showed. She was obviously doing a lot behind the scenes, but when circumstances allowed (for example, when we were in two boats and she was in charge of one) she was able to show her skills. When Lev was busy dealing with one or another catastrophe, she took charge of the group and sorted out hotels or buying replacement items in the supermarket. Add in culture, landscapes, a couple of earthquakes, the "camp" experience on the Elevah River, really good lodges (much better than I expected) and fantastic birds and you get a top-quality trip. Very different from everywhere else we have been and well worth it.
We liked the way Rockjumper communicated with us prior to the trip and kept us informed so we could meet all of the requirements that we had to follow in preparation for the trip. Our guide Julian made everyone feel comfortable and listened to and met all our needs and expectations. He was very knowledgeable about not only the birds, but had a wide range of information of the animals and plants. We had a friendly group and lovely accommodations with great food! What more could anyone want!
Paul was one of the best tour leaders I have ever had the pleasure of travelling with. He was incredibly enthusiastic, excellent at showing you where the birds were and keen to ensure that everyone saw the birds. Nothing was too much trouble for him and the tour went very smoothly thanks to him and the local guide (who was also excellent). The accommodation was sometimes a little basic but presumably reflected what was available in Ghana. A brilliant tour.
