Typically tours begin at a hotel in the city of tour origination though in a few cases participants will be met at the airport by a representative of Exotic Birding LLC. Participants will be advised of specific arrangements for their tour well in advance of departure.
On rare occasions Exotic Birding may be forced to cancel a tour due to insufficient participation. Participants should therefore verify that the tour will take place before purchasing airline tickets.
Airline fares can vary greatly through time for a given destination depending on economic conditions. Participants may want to reserve their flights early to get the best fares and connections and to ensure space on the flights. Exotic Birding recommends that participants arrive a day early if possible in case unexpected flight delays or cancellations occur. It's difficult and potentially expensive to catch up with a tour group that has already left the city of origin. Exotic Birding can arrange accommodations for early arrivals upon request. In some cases Exotic Birding may organize an optional day trip for early arrivals if there is sufficient interest.
Exotic Birding LLC is not a travel agency and cannot make your airline reservations for you. However, we'll be happy to consult with you regarding what arrangements and arrival times would be appropriate.
