Offered in: English and 1 more

Led by a field biologist, not a tour guide every stop is chosen based on real habitat evidence and species phenology. This is Faunaris's flagship route: high priority Andean endemics, occasional Spectacled Bear activity in high páramo terrain, and a full checklist review with genuine field expertise, not scripted commentary.

What's Included

Travel insurance with medical assistance coverage
Lunch at a local restaurant in Guasca — supporting the local community and rounding out the day with a proper meal, not just a snack.
Round-trip private transfer from Bogotá to Guasca and back. Pickup within designated zones, confirmed via WhatsApp ~30 min prior. No need to arrange your own transportation.
A boxed breakfast to enjoy en route, timed for early departures before most hotel breakfast service begins.
Entrance fees and permits for access to the private reserve, supporting local conservation and habitat protection efforts in the Guasca corridor.
Expert field biologist guide throughout the experience
Coffee, tea, or hot aromática always available at the reserve — a welcome warmth after early-morning birding in the cool Andean air.
Door-to-door pickup outside the standard zone is optional and available for an additional fee, arranged directly with our team before your activity. Ask us for a quote based on your location.

    Maximize your species list in one high-yield day from Bogotá. This flexible 8–10 hour route combines two habitats around Guasca — reservoir-edge landscapes and a key Andean forest reserve — built around known activity for regional endemics. You're led throughout by a Faunaris field biologist, selecting routes based on habitat evidence and species phenology. Faunaris's flagship one-day route: strong species list, expert ID, a boxed breakfast for the early start, and a full checklist review over lunch at a local restaurant in Guasca — supporting the local community. The route also crosses high-páramo terrain where the Spectacled Bear is occasionally recorded, alongside high-altitude bird specialties. Sightings are never guaranteed; the bird list remains the day's most reliable reward. No species sighting is guaranteed, bear included. We provide expert method and habitat access — not a promised outcome. Times may shift with traffic, weather, or wildlife activity.
