The Abary birding tour offers an unforgettable experience for nature enthusiasts and bird lovers eager to explore birding in Guyana. Just an hour’s drive east of Georgetown along the scenic Demerara coast, this journey takes you deep into one of the country's most diverse bird habitats—the Abary bird trail.
Nestled within the lush River Mangrove Forest, this trail is a sanctuary for both endemic and coastal species, making it a prime destination for birding in Guyana. Spot rare and vibrant species such as the blood-coloured woodpecker, Guianan gnatcatcher, and the elusive white-bellied and white-barred piculets. Further along, keep an eye out for the majestic Rufous crab hawk, a sight that never fails to impress avid birdwatchers.
But the adventure doesn’t end there. On the return trip, you might be treated to one of the most breathtaking sights in birding Guyana—a dazzling display of scarlet ibises. With its unique blend of coastal and forest habitats, the Abary birding tour offers an unparalleled opportunity to witness some of the most fascinating Guyana birds in their natural environment.
