Macaws Galore!

​

Witness one of Belize’s most breathtaking natural spectacles — the annual gathering of the radiant Scarlet Macaws in the lush foothills of the Maya Mountains.
 

From November to March, these brilliantly colored parrots migrate from the deep Chiquibul Forest to feast on the rich bounty of fruit trees found in the lowland valleys of southern Belize. Their arrival transforms the jungle into a living canvas of red, yellow, and blue, accompanied by their unmistakable echoing calls.

Join our exclusive semi-private tour (maximum 7 guests) for an intimate and unforgettable wildlife experience. Led by a professional naturalist guide, you’ll embark on a scenic early morning trek through pristine rainforest, where the mist clings to towering trees and the forest awakens with the sounds of toucans, howler monkeys, and tropical songbirds. As the sun rises over the canopy, you’ll reach the birds’ natural feeding grounds, one of the few remaining places in Belize where these endangered Scarlet Macaws can be seen in the wild.

Your guide will share insights into their behavior, breeding patterns, and the ongoing conservation efforts protecting these vibrant symbols of Belize’s natural heritage. With binoculars in hand and your camera ready, you’ll have the rare opportunity to observe and photograph these magnificent creatures in flight — a truly magical sight that few travelers ever get to experience.

This serene and educational journey offers more than just birdwatching; it’s a connection to nature, conservation, and the untamed beauty of Belize.
