2 hr 30 min - This tour takes you into the beautiful serene landscape of the untouched mangrove Caroni Swamp, a world-class destination for bird watchers and outdoor enthusiasts, and home to the National Bird of Trinidad, the bright red Scarlet Ibis. Bird life is particularly abundant in Trinidad and this tour provides a delightful introduction with appeal to bird-watching enthusiasts as well as those just interested in the outdoors. The Caroni Bird Sanctuary is a 48 square mile wetland area on Trinidad’s western coast, part mangrove swamp and part lagoon. Upon arrival you will board a large flat-bottomed boat with outboard motor and slowly travel along the beautiful waterways admiring the unusual landscape and variety of birds, crustaceans and other wildlife. Birds you may spot include the neo-tropical cormorant, large-billed tern, tri-colored heron, red-capped cardinal, snowy egret and bi-colored cane-bill – to name just a few. Red, black and white mangroves populate the edges of the waterways and many tiny oysters cling to the roots of the mangroves. There are also possible sightings of non-poisonous snakes in the branches of the trees, caimans or silky anteaters. Arriving in the wide lagoon, the boat becomes your floating vantage point to witness the protected brightly colored Scarlet Ibis. The birds feed and nest in this area and every sunset they fly in unison to roost, a spectacular cloud of red against the evening sky. They settle in the mangroves as the sun is setting, the quiet atmosphere of the lagoon adding atmosphere to a memorable trip.

The swamp was actually way more beautiful than expected! The Red Ibis and flamingos were spectacular among other wildlife!
Made a booking on short notice, and everything went smooth. From booking to drop-off. Breathtaking views if you’re a nature person like me.
Our tour guide and driver was amazing. Pick up and drop off was on point. 100% excellent tour and the photo opportunities are amazing
Very relaxing boat trip up the river with lots of wildlife sightings, e.g. snakes and birds. Enjoyed watching the Scarlet Ibis coming home to roost. our guide, Ginelle, from Island Experiences was excellent.
My mam and I went in this tour together and had the pleasure of meeting our driver and guide, Kaleel. He picked us up from our hotel, we felt very comfortable and welcome in his vehicle. When we got to the swamp, it was overcast and looked as if it was going to rain, and he let us borrow his personal umbrella, which was very nice of him. We really enjoyed seeing the beautiful birds, and the swamp itself was stunning! 100% recommend this tour, it’s a must when visiting Trinidad! Cameras do the beauty of these birds no justice, you must see it with you own eyes. Thank you to Kaleel and the tour operators for adding to my mam and I’d first trip to Trinidad :)
All went smoothly. Birds were plentiful. Glad we were on boats to get into their roosting areas (at a distance). Our guide, Khalil, was great!
