Travel by air-conditioned coach on a 40-minute ride to the island of Baru. Sit back, enjoy the scenery, and view the growing industrial area around Cartagena.
You're headed to the National Aviary, one of the finest aviaries in the world. Colombia boasts the world's most remarkable bird diversity, with more than 1,900 species, and the National Aviary reflects this with an essential cross-section of this diversity. Set out to explore the different bird observation stations arranged by habitat and species, including:
The Tropical Forest: macaws, Harpy eagles, tangaras and other species, as well as different kinds of palms, waterfalls and macaque monkeys
Coast & Mangroves: the habitat of different types of ducks, cormorants and pelicans, herons, doves, storks and migrating teals
The Desert Station: an environment where cardinals, mockingbirds and partridges live
The Andes: owls, eagles and the famous Andean condor -- king of the mountains
Surrounded by birds, beautiful landscapes, palm trees and waterfalls, you will have time to purchase a beverage or delicious Colombian coffee (at your own expense) before the ride back to Cartagena.
Notes:
Travel time to the National Aviary is 40 minutes each way.
