TRAVEL ARRANGEMENTS

Tours typically begin at a hotel in the destination city though in a few cases participants will be met at the airport by a representative of Exotic Birding LLC. Participants will be advised of specific arrangements for their tour well in advance of departure.

PLEASE NOTE: Exotic Birding may be forced to cancel or postpone a tour due to political unrest or other unforeseen circumstances in rare situations due to political unrest or other circumstances. When such a risk exist, for instance when there are upcoming elections or other situations that may cause unrest, participants should to wait until a couple months prior to departure to book flights. For countries subject to political unrest, refundable tickets are advisable if booked early.

Exotic Birding recommends that participants arrive a day early if possible in case unexpected flight delays or cancellations occur. This is especially important if the first day of a tour involves domestic flights. Arriving a day early is especially advisable when traveling during times where risks of inclement weather such as hurricanes might cause flight cancellations. Exotic Birding can arrange accommodations for early arrivals upon request. If you do experience a flight delay, please contact Exotic Birding AND OUR GUIDE OR AGENT IN THE DESTINATION COUNTRY as soon as possible. Contacting our agent on the ground is essential because in rare cases we may not be available to respond to this situation in a timely manner otherwise.

Exotic Birding LLC is not a travel agency and cannot make airline reservations for you. When domestic flights are involved in a tour, flights should be coordinated with the guide. Exotic Birding can assist with that.
