Birding Haapsalu

Day trips

Birding Haapsalu offers guiding to birdwatchers and nature lovers with different level of birding experience. Our goal is to make your trip to Estonia unforgettable and to help you find the species you have always dreamed of seeing.

Why should you prefers us? Here are just few reasons:

  • Small group sizes. Group size for our scheduled trips is much smaller compared with many other wildlife companies. We take up to 4 persons to Lynx trips and up to 8 persons to birding tours. With bigger groups companies are usually using two minivans and that means that you might miss some good sightings. 
  • You book the bird guide directly! That will ensure you quick and professional replies. Moreover, your guiding fee does not have staff costs. 
  • All the trips are guided by a professional and extremely keen birders with good field experience and guiding practice. All our guides have over 25 years of birding practice and at least 10 years experience in leading birding tours.
  • Our guides use high quality field scopes. This provides you enjoyable views of the birds and mammals. 
  • We offer tips for self-birding free of charge, if you book our guide at least for 2 days!
