Richard is absolutely brilliant! I am on a solo tour of South America and had a free day so decided to book Richard’s one day Mindo Cloud Forest birding trip. I had read lots of positive reviews, and I can say that they are 100% accurate! Richard is not only a super knowledgeable about all the birds, but knows the most incredible spots to capture amazing shots. He also had a great personality, with a sharp sense of humour! Thank you SO much for sharing the beautiful area with me, Richard. It was an absolute pleasure spending the day with you, and I will absolutely be in touch about joining you for a longer trip! Dan 😊

My husband and I just spent 7 days birdwatching tour guided by Richard. The experience is much more than our expectations. Of course the reason we came to Quito was for the birds, and we certainly were not disappointed. We travelled from east to west and saw so many kinds of hummingbirds including swordbills, toucans, tanagers, flycatchers, woodpeckers, etc. Beyond the great birding, what really stood out was Richard. He is very friendly, has a wonderful knowledge of the birds, very experienced in finding best photo shooting positions and was incredibly helpful with all our arrangements. We highly recommend Richard to anyone who is nature lover and likes to know more about birds.

We have started the journey on photography wildlife. Ecuador is one of the best place to see and capture the birds photos. We were fortunate enough to find an incredibly talented photographer, Richard Hernández, who exceeded our expectations. Richard attention to detail of the 5 days trip brought out the best impression of Ecuador, it help us to have opportunity to photo many exotic birds. Richard planned every day schedule, arrived on time, maintained a friendly and approachable demeanor, and made us feel at ease throughout the whole trip. he patiently listened to our ideas and incorporated them seamlessly into the tour. We had small group, three of us. He arranged 5 full days activities, never missed the best photo slots for sunrise and sunset which were the most active birds period. Richard has detailed local knowledge about the birds. He named all the birds we saw, and took us the places they would show up. And took us to the best local place to have Ecuador food. We enjoyed the experience the friendly local people and their culture, enjoy the delicious food. Richard, thank you for the time and effort you put into creating an fabulous experience we enjoyed.

I recently had the pleasure of using Richard Hernandez as my bird guide to Quito Pichincha Province and I must say it has exceeded my expectations. Richard stands out for his comprehensive and knowledge of the birds in the Mindo cloud forest area. If you are in need of a bird guide in Quito, look no further than Richard Hernandez of Ecuador Mindo Bird Photography Tours. I would definitely hire him back when I go back to Quito.

My wife and I recently enjoyed a 2-day private bird photography tour that exceeded all my expectations. From the start, our guide, Richard, showcased impressive knowledge of local bird species and the local ecosystem. In the early morning, we ventured into a dense forest, waking up very early to catch the Cock-of-the-rock's mating display before it ended. The early start was well worth it, as we witnessed and photographed these magnificent birds in their natural setting. Our guide’s familiarity with the terrain led us to prime spots for bird watching and photography. We were also in a beautiful remote mountain area, capturing stunning images of hummingbirds and tanagers in the morning light. We encountered three kinds of toucans, each more impressive than the last. The guide’s expertise ensured we were perfectly positioned for the best shots and provided fascinating insights into the behavior and habitats of each species. The personalized attention and exceptional service made this tour stand out. Every detail, from transportation to meals allows me to focus on photography and nature. This tour is a must for bird photography enthusiasts. The expert guidance, stunning locations, and personalized service made it an unforgettable experience. We came away with fantastic photographs and a deeper appreciation for bird photography. Some photos from this tour are displayed here.
