NORTHERN PERU: An endemics galore
Departure: On request

This trip is a birders dream. The route taken is designed around some of the most restricted-range birds to be found in the world. The beauty of this trip is that, while chasing certain special birds, we encounter many more widely distributed species and travel through tremendous scenery and places little visited by foreigners. One night of camping on the banks of the Marañon river will add to the expeditionary twist of this trip.
