Private Birding Tours

Reconnect with nature at Montezuma ³Ô¹ÏºÚÁÏ Center!

Enjoy a unique bird-watching tour of the 50,000-acre Montezuma Wetlands Complex! These outings are a great way to catch up with family members, close friends, or co-workers, and experience the birds, other wildlife, and habitats that make Montezuma an ³Ô¹ÏºÚÁÏ Important Bird Area. Choose from driving tours, birding walks, canoeing/kayaking excursions, and snowshoeing hikes. All tours are led by ³Ô¹ÏºÚÁÏ staff and include equipment rentals, binoculars, and bird guides.

For driving tours, you will follow behind the ³Ô¹ÏºÚÁÏ van in your own vehicle to Montezuma’s marshes, forests, and grasslands to explore several birding hotspots and the abundant wildlife as they go about their activities. Participants will receive a conference call phone number to hear the ³Ô¹ÏºÚÁÏ educator narrate the tour and ask questions between stops. Guests are welcome to get out of their vehicles at each stop.
