  We just had the most fantastic tour with Victor. We went to the newly opened Ichkabal ruins which was really nice because we got there early and were the only ones. We lost count of the birds we saw both on the way to and in the ruins, including several toucans! Red tailed hawk, blue heron, anhinga, montezuma oropendula, hummingbirds, red headed woodpecker, orioles, and nothern jacana, smoky brown woodpecker and more. We also saw foxes and an agouti a crocodile. Also worth noting is that I have a heart condition and had to go slow and stop frequently to rest. Victor was extremely kind and patient with me.

  Wide knowledge of local and local birds and fauna In addition to birds, gray vixen and peccari. We had a very special day, a long time wanting to photograph the Toucan in flight and it was achieved! He took us to a sighting tower in the archaeological area.... Good place to photograph birds

  Victor is an amazing bird guide. He asked what birds we were hoping to see prior to our trip and amazingly, he was able to make sure that we saw them all!!! We added 40 new birds to our list! He is funny and kind and took us to the perfect places to bird watch including the ruins and the jungle. He provided lovely snacks and made sure that we had a wonderful experience. We highly recommend that you hire him as a guide.

  Still on cloud 9 from that experience. Hands down one of the best days I have ever had. Such an intimate experience with wildlife. As our guide, Victor said, the perfect combination of flora, fauna, and history. My husband and I are two Canadian birders who came to Mexico to escape the cold and get a nature fix. This was the perfect tour for us. Victor and Matt were easy to communicate and plan with, and the experience exceeded my expectations. The knowledge and effort put into the tour was definitely noticed. We saw 50+ bird species, monkeys, and learned about Mayan history. Victor even took the time to point out plants and gave in depth explanations of things we were seeing. The love for the environment definitely shows. I would recommend this tour to anyone. Bring your own binoculars and camera if you have a good zoom. Binoculars are supplied if you give them notice ahead of time. You will not be disappointed !

• Enthusiasm to the sky!

  I went on a birdwatching tour to Dzibanche ruins with Victor and I must say WAUW! He made the day really special for everyone. Rarely have I seen such enthusiasm, knowledge and professionalism combined. We got a lot of knowledge about the Mayan culture and history while seeing seemingly endless amounts of colorful birds with Victors binoculars. Highly recommended and I will not hesitate to go on another tour with him next time around. Thank you Vic!

  Highly recommend a bird watching tour with Victor! We had a fantastic time birding near Bacalar! Victor identified several birds including the Squirrel Cuckoo, Yellow-lored Parrot, and Black-headed Trogon. He took us to some great bird watching spots and we learned a lot about the different birds in the Yucatan. Victor loves photography and sent us some photos of some of the birds we saw (see photos). We had a wonderful time learning about endemic birds, some of his favourite bird watching spots, his culture, stories, and love for nature and protecting it including turtles and jaguars. We would book a tour with Victor again in a heartbeat! Thank you for all the laughs, your passion for nature and wildlife, and for sharing your knowledge and expertise with us! 😊

  We had an amazing experience with Victor as our guide. The Mayan ruïnes in the jungle were beautiful and we could clime them. We saw a lot of birds such as toekans and also some monkeys! We were the only tourists there. We were offered fresh fruits, nuts and water after. Would definitely recommend!

  One of the best adventures of my life, I’ve never felt so apart of the landscape and in step with nature than I did here in dzibanche . These ruins have this energy about them that I really could not understand until Victor so knowledgeably explained the history and the culture from the jungle floor to the tops of the temples. And even spotting a family of spider monkeys and tons of different birds along the journey . Thank you so much for such an incredible experience

  Victor is the best guide ever! He took us to ruins of Kolunich for a birding tour and we saw over 30 species and learned an amazing amount about the Maya and this site as well. His expertise and enthusiasm for both were unparalleled. Truly a memorable experience and highlight of our Yucatán travels.
