No two days at the monarch sanctuaries are the same. We’ll also search for montane bird species like red warblers, white-eared hummingbirds, and streak-backed oriole. Our expert guides will lead us through prime birding areas, adjusting the day’s itinerary based on weather, recent monarch movements, and bird activity.

Ride horseback and hike into the heart of the monarch butterfly reserve, where the air shimmers with millions of monarchs clinging to oyamel fir trees or soaring overhead. It’s an unforgettable encounter with one of the planet’s most extraordinary migrations.

Savor the thrill of birdwatching with the awe of the monarch migration, all while immersing you in the rich culture and history of Mexico.
