Aviario Nacional de Colombia

This is an amazing 1/2 day excursion you can take from Cartagena. It took us about an hour to get there on a bus full of people. The park hardly had anyone in it, which was perfect for our slow pace. Unfortunately, we missed the midday show by 5 minutes, and once they start, they won't let anyone in. We got there around 0900 and didn't leave until 1200. The birds are all just amazing! It's worth the trip, but don't go to beaches afterward. They are beyond awful 🤦🏻‍♂️

Is a great place if you love the birds, there are many and they aren't afraid of people. Inside there is not a restaurants, and is good to go with water, is hot there and there are some mosquitoes.

Great place to see nature and birds, but for our surprise there were little "dinosaurs" too. We loved it, but... Be careful, when you finish your walk there will be a parrot and if you talk to him, he will attack you, that guy attacked us...

A great bird sanctuary which presents many of the species of birds native to South America. It take about 3/4 hours to walk and see the lectures with birds of each kind.

There is a wide variety of birds. Finally I saw Tucano, which looks amazing. Beside it, there are a lot of colorful parrots, from big to small ones, peacocks and many other birds. You can even spot big iguanas in aviario. There is a nice 20 minutes presentation of birds, so try not to miss it.

Fabulous aviary with an unbelievable number of birds. Worth the drive from Cartagena. Two tips for your trip: 1- bring bug spray! There are a lot of mosquitoes. 2- coordinate with a driver. We used inDrive, We requested a ride there, and when our driver showed up he negotiated staying during our trip and driving us back. I'm glad he did that because I don't think it would have been difficult to find a ride back otherwise.

My family and I thoroughly enjoyed this place! Such a fun excursion from Cartagena. It’s such a treat to see so many different species of birds in one place and have the chance to observe them close up. The day we went there was hardly anyone there so it felt like we had the place to ourselves and really took our time to enjoy each exhibit. As a note, all of the signs and plaques are in Spanish and there are a lot of mosquitoes so make sure to slather on the insect repellent before heading in.

If you like birds even a little bit then you’ll love this aviary. The macaws are free roaming. Two walked out of the men’s room to greet me as I was headed to the ladies room. As I sat in the first enclosed aviary, one of the birds landed on the bench and decided to hop onto me to clean my skin. It would pull my sleeve to look under it. It was gentle and the beak didn’t hurt at all. It was an amazing experience. I’ve always wanted to see a toucan and we did. All the birds are well cared for and look beautiful. I suggest you eat before you go since there are only some drinks and ice cream. This was the most wonderful experience we had when we visited Cartagena.
