A new Indigo Birding trip this spring to areas of our state (Indiana) that I had not seen before or birded. Had a wonderful time (in spite of one rainy day), met new birders, saw many new birds, and as always, our guide David was simply the best. He is patient, flexible, and fun to be with. Looking forward to my next trip with Indigo Birding!

This was my first trip and although I had some delays because of airline problems, I was able to arrive late and catch up with the tour thanks to the efforts of David and Julio. Hotels and meals were great and Julio's enthusiasm for finding and observing birds was infectious. David's photos or the birds are beautiful. I enjoyed activities in San Juan as well. Sara's walking tour was well paced and interesting. Even with my abbreviated tour, I feel that I learned a lot. I hope I will be able another tour in the future - with less airline drama!

Great trip! Birding was excellent. David and Julito were wonderful guides and really enhanced our experience.

We had a great time. Wonderful guides and fellow birders. The lodging was great and challenging dietary needs were addressed. Thank you for an amazing trip.

This trip was fabulous. Every minute was full of great experiences (Mayan and Garifuna experiences that included food prep (using a metate to grind corn to make tortillas, and using a coconut spike and grinder to make coconut soup), intro to basket making, spice farm tour, hot sauce tasting (at least 30 flavorful samples), a visit to Mennonite land to see a special vulture, a tour, lunch and birding on a private nature reserve, a small family-owned chocolate farm with 2-room "factory" and a chocolate tasting with many samples (yum) followed by lunch, a visit to a Mayan women't cooperative to learn about their traditions and lives. Our leader David Rupp had everything perfectly planned and though he was a superb birder, he had hired the best bird guides in Belize to be with us night and day, and we had even more local bird guides for specific places like the river and nature preserve. Beautiful birds and a very congenial and interesting group of guests were of course as important as the many cultural experiences. My husband and I were making travel plans for this time next year and decided that if David offers the Northern Belize bird tour next year we're on it!
