My friends and I had Dave guide a kayaking/bird watching trip. It was amazing! Dave is amazing! We learned a lot, saw and heard so many birds! It was great!

David was the ideal tour guide. He knew where to go for the best sightings, and his encyclopedic knowledge of birds ensured that we knew exactly what we were looking at. He takes you from site to site, sets up his scope, and lets you see the beauty. Our grand finale was a flock of 150 pelicans, and it was spectacular.

David is a wonderful tour guide, highly skilled at working with people. (we are of “a certain age”), very knowledgeable about birds (clearly birdwatching is his passion), and precise at navigating the waters to avoid logs and shallows. 2 hours passed way too quickly. We saw 28 bird species from Prothonotary Warbler to a family of Bald Eagles, while leisurely kayaking in nature’s beauty. Totally recommend!!

We first met David in February 2021 for a birding trip in southern Indiana which, unfortunately, was limited to only a day and a half because of an impending blizzard and frigid temperatures. We had never been to Central America and we were not sure that we would ever travel there. After our brief time with David, we knew we had found someone that we could trust to provide a great introduction to that part of the world. He knows the local guides, local lodges, birding hotspots, etc. Travel between lodges was well-planned as were all the other details—including on-site testing for COVID the day before departing for the U.S. David is a knowledgeable, pleasant man who makes everyone comfortable and welcome.

From the first stop to the last, David found for us all our “wish list” species with a few added treats at sunset like the American Woodcocks and the coyote chorus. So knowledgeable and informative, just a perfect way to spend time with family or friends. Indigo Birding Tours never disappoint.
