Calling all bird enthusiasts and curious nature lovers! This 5-hour off-road excursion in Doñana National Park promises an unforgettable encounter with the region's incredible avian diversity.Our expert ornithology guides will lead you through the park's two distinct ecosystems: the Piñoneros Pine Forest and the Guadalquivir Marshes. We'll venture into exclusive areas, perfect for spotting the park's most elusive feathered residents.

The Guadalquivir Marshes, with their two functional salt pans, provide a year-round watery haven for over 300 bird species. This unique environment attracts a remarkable variety of birds throughout the year. Whether you're a seasoned birder or simply enjoy nature's beauty, this tour promises a thrilling experience. Photographers will be especially captivated by the vibrant colors and stunning scenery. These memories will stay with you for a lifetime.

From the iconic flamingo to graceful herons, egrets, spoonbills, terns, avocets, and cormorants, the marshes and pine forests teem with diverse birdlife. Depending on the season, you might also spot impressive raptors like ospreys, booted eagles, and black and common kites. Within the Pinar de la Algaida lies the Tarelo Lagoon, a crucial stopover point for migratory birds. This area attracts a large number of frogs, and a small island provides a safe nesting ground for various bird species in the spring.
