Just 50 minutes from Cartagena, you will discover why Colombia is the country with the greatest diversity of birds in the world. With more than 170 species of our land and some migratory and around 2000 copies, the NATIONAL AVIARY OF COLOMBIA, is constituted as the second largest America.
Through ecological trails you can enjoy three ecosystem environments and 21 exhibits divided into large immersion avituaries, radial aviaries, marshes and lakes. They are different landscape, vegetable and water environments, which allow to appreciate a great diversity of bird species.
A tourist attraction that promotes the care of nature and sustainable development.

This organization has unfair unjust policy of charging foreigners more money to enter the aviary.
There is no valid reason or explanation as to why someone who comes from another part of the world has to pay more than residents to visit this place. money is money and people are all equal and should be treated the same all over the world.. and when asked as why I was given attitude and no answers to my questions. We arrived as a group of 10 and we lost time transportation and money coming here
I will never visit again

"OH, it's so BEAUTIFUL!!" There is SO much to see! 3 sections such as jungle and rainforest and desert. Yet, go with no expectations, for sure. Put on sunscreen and have water. Greeting visitors are loud groups of colorful "parrots". Head down the trail and you enter the first section. You do have to put in work....not always easy to spot what birds are there, which means do not rush! Yes, if you speak Spanish the 11:30 show can be entertaining and sit up high in the shade. One of the "trainers" coaches with treats some of the "show stoppers" to come up and walk/fly past. If you do not speak Spanish, all you can do is enjoy the "sights". Now, for me, I loved the flamingos, owls, toucans, and the little parrots who would engage repeating "hola!" and "ciao"!!

Hot as Hades, it was 110f the day of our visit. But it was not to humid so that saved the day. There is a stand selling chips, drinks and ice cream bars half way thru the park walk. There are shaded rest stops with benches for bird viewing. But sometimes you have to get a peacock or 2 off the bench in order to sit. Restrooms are just inside park entrance and are nice and clean.

I went to the National Aviary website and purchased tickets and they show a link for the transportation to purchase. I didn't want a guide (we are interested in photos not moving along with a group) and we didn't want to stop anywhere for a local lunch or a beach. This was the best option. Unfortunately they "forgot" to pick us up and my hotel went through great difficulty to reach them. Once she did, they had a driver with us in 30 minutes. He only spoke Spanish but that was fine. He was a good driver, waited in the parking lot the 2 hours promised and was good overall. We loved the Aviary but I was covered in bug bites! Slather on inches of lotion.
