Reviews

Domi was all I could ask for in a guide - punctual, knowledgeable, prepared and friendly. I was especially pleased that he had a Plan B in case it rained. Thankfully the weather cooperated. Domi found many birds I had never seen or heard before in an area of the pipeline not visited by the large groups. We were fortunate to view most through his scope. Like many birders who are enthusiastic about their work he knows a lot about the natural world and has many stories to share. Also the promised water and snacks were provided (unlike the last company I birdied with in PC). This was important because departure time was far to early for breakfast. I would definitely hire Domi again and have booked a second Birding Tour with Whitehawk in Boquete.

Incredibly professional, warm and kind staff. Especially our tour guide, Michael. Despite us being budding birdwatchers (no hot list, but a tremendous love of birds and wildlife), Michael was able to find beautiful birds, teach us about their songs and food, as well as showing us the diverse wildlife, from capybaras to caimans to howler monkeys. It was a hot, humid day for us Seattleites, yet Michael kept us involved, fascinated and thrilled throughout the excursion. He brought great snacks, plenty of water, and even chilled pineapple that he grew himself on his farm. He offered us binoculars and brought along a scope that kept our teenagers interested -- and learning -- about the wildlife and how they could take the best photos for their Instagram accounts. I can't imagine a better trip or a better introduction to the rainforest of Panama, than this. We'll definitely book with Whitehawk again.

My husband and I had the pleasure of being guided by Edwin in Panama for a half day trip (Pipeline, Discovery center and associated locations on the way) Edwin was the best! He was amazingly talented at finding birds by the slightest sound or movement. He was patient with us and really good at making sure that we saw what he saw. Edwin was also good at answering our questions about living in Panama, its history, and the ecology of the Canal area. He was prompt about meeting us at the dock and respecting our limitations. His English was great and he was a great person to spend the day with. Whitehawk is a great company to work with.. We were so impressed that we signed up for another tour with them (to Cuba) We were traveling with Viking and frustrated with their excursions. Too big for birding. Wish I had someone like Edwin in every port. Linda - from the Northwest Washington State.
