Welcome to Ascanio Birding Tours!

The leading birdwatching company for Venezuela, Suriname and Guyana.

We have been leading birding tours in Venezuela, Trinidad and Tobago, Suriname and Guyana since 1986. Whether you are an individual traveler or you like to join fellow birders, we can arrange a wide variety of birding trips to Rancho Grande, the plains (Llanos), the Andes, the mountains of Paria, Lake Maracaibo basin, Perija Mountains, Brownsberg reserve, Iwokrama and the Tepuis. Over the years, we have found locations to look for the Roraiman Nightjar (our first record is back to 1984!), Orinoco Softtail, Scallop-breasted Antpitta, Recurve-billed Bushbird, Tepui Wren, Gray-headed Warbler, Great Antpitta and 3 yet undescribed birds (A softtail, a wag-tail tyrant and a spinetail) amongst other specialities. Our commitment with research and bird conservation has allowed us to finance projects with many Venezuelan NGOs, including the Venezuelan Audubon, Aves de Venezuela and the Phelps Ornithological Museum.
