About our birding tours

Why go birding with us?

Why not? You get a unique experience with a great atmosphere, beautiful nature, exciting birds and you gain insight and knowledge about the birds and their lives. Über unsere Vogelbeobachtungstouren - deutsche Version

Why not have a unique experience

Why not have a different and unique experience during your vacation, weekend, or on a weekday – why not join a guided birdwatching tour?

Join an experienced birdwatcher on a tour and experience what it means to watch birds and gain insight and knowledge about bird life and how to get to know them. Our guided birdwatching tours are just like when we go birdwatching ourselves.

Where

We offer private guided birding (birdwatching) tours in Denmark and Sweden – the perfect choice for those who like to go birding alone, with friends or family. We mainly organize birdwatching trips to locations on Møn and Nyord, Lolland-Falster, South and Southwest Zealand as well as in the Copenhagen area and North Zealand and South Sweden.

For whom

Our birding tours are for everyone – from the beginner to the experienced birder. 

You don’t have to be a birdwatcher, we customize our birdwatching tours according to the participants and we also make tours for those who are considering birdwatching as a new hobby, or for those who are curious about what birds you see and hear when you’re out in nature – or where you live.

Or maybe you’re a family on vacation and want to try something new and have a different experience.

We also organize tours for more experienced birdwatchers who either need to refresh some bird identification skills, like bird song and calls, or visiting birders who would like to benefit from our local knowledge of the places we are birding.  

Duration and activity level

We offer guided birdwatching tours of different durations and activity levels. All tours are organized and targeted, and can be customized according to the participants, the birding sites, the season, and the birds we expect to see.

All our tours are led by a skilled and experienced birding tour guide, who will help participants to find, show, and identify the different birds we see and hear.

Number of participants

Our private guided birding tours are always in small groups – the perfect choice for those who like to go birding alone or with a few friends or family. We believe that birding in small groups gives the best experience for all participants. There are better opportunities for participants to see, hear, and experience the birds, to learn about bird identification, and also more opportunities to ask questions and get answers and help from the birding guide.

Language
Communication on our private guided birding tours is in either Danish or English.

The birding tour guide understands and speaks some German and Spanish.

Have you planned a trip yourself

If you have, or you’re planning an outing by yourself, alone or with friends and family, why not book a birding guide to join you for a unique experience and gain knowledge and insight into the birds around you? 

Are you a larger group

We can also arrange birdwatching tours for you if you are a larger group, such as an association or company. Contact us to hear about the possibilities.

No two birdwatching trips or days are ever the same

When going birdwatching – or birding – many things can have an impact on what you will experience. Especially weather, wind, and light conditions can affect which birds and how many you see or hear on a birding trip.

The time of year – or season – is also important. Some bird species are resident and can be seen all year round, while others are migratory or winter visitors and are only seen at certain times of the year.

In addition, some birds are common, some are abundant, some are uncommon, but seen occasionally – and then some birds are very rare, and you have to be very lucky to see them.

The time of day is also important, as many birds are often most active in the morning hours, and again at the end of the day.

We try to organize each birding trip according to the current abundance of birds and weather conditions. This also means that small adjustments and changes can be made during the birding trip itself.

You never know what birding experiences are waiting out there – and that’s what makes birding fun and exciting!
