"Best part of my trip in Baja. Javier was knowledgeable, enthusiastic, and very easygoing and enjoyable company. He picked us up from our hostel and accommodated changes to the lunch provided with a delicious vegan lunch. Even if you are not an avid bird watcher, the experience takes you to some lesser known spots and enriches your trip by immersing you in the unique nature Southern Baja offers. Great way to spend a morning! (We did the tour in Todos Santos)."

"My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our two days with Javier Alcala who is a knowledgeable and enthusiatic birding guide and ornithologist. When we come back next year, we be sure to hire him once again to help us find birds and identify them confidently. We have no hesitation in recommending his services!"

"We had a great early morning bird trip. Javier was well-prepared, friendly and a good teacher. Our group of 5 included people from 20 to 70 years of age, and birding experience from beginner to years of birding. Everyone enjoyed the outing! Xavier does multi-day trips - planning to do this next time I visit La Paz."

"We had an excellent morning birding with Javier. He picked us up at our hotel, provided snacks and water and nice binoculars for two of our group who are not birders, so didn't have gear. We saw 58 species, with some nest building and some feeding of young. Javier is knowledgable (degree in Ornithology) and it was fun when he'd let us the local name for some of the birds. Javier does nice work to get locals involved in birding and exploring their environment, too. Great morning, wonderful guide. Definitely will connect with him again to try for some of the endemics up in the mountains!"

"I’ve birded with Javier with Lugares Parajosos several times and every time was amazing. The first time I went on a tour in the Gulf of California with birders from Denver Audubon. Javier made the day with his ID expertise and knowledge of local birds. Since then I’ve joined him for local birding with experienced birders and newbies. He makes everyone feel welcome and engages people at all levels."

"Guias con muy buen conocimiento de campo para encontrar e identificar aves,basado en una muy buena formación académica.Es muy dificil encontrar un Master y una Doctora en Ornitologia prestando servicios de guia,lo cual sumado a su calidez humana y dedicación,hicieron que la experiencia,ademas de recomendable,haya cumplido con todas mis expectativas"

"Genial experiencia!! Vimos al menos 33 especies de aves en nuestro recorrido: entre aves playeras y endémicas de la región. Eduardo, El guía, tiene un carisma increíble y una pasión por las aves que contagia, definitivamente volveré y continuaré llenando mi bitácora de Aves del estado de Baja California Sur."

"It’s been four months since my trip, and I’m still in awe of Javier and Max—and the 60+ bird species they shared with me. My all-day outing with them was the highlight of my week in Los Cabo’s, Mexico.

"Tuvimos el privilegio de realizar una experiencia de avistamiento de aves con Javier, y fue realmente inolvidable. Javier tiene una habilidad increíble para transmitir emociones y asombro en cada ave que observamos. No se limita a señalar especies: comparte sus historias, comportamientos y detalles únicos que hacen que cada avistamiento sea especial. Su profundo conocimiento de la región de Los Cabos y de sus ecosistemas es impresionante, y su pasión es contagiosa. Gracias a Javier, logramos conectar no solo con las aves, sino también con la belleza y el espíritu del lugar. Si visitas Los Cabos y deseas vivir una experiencia auténtica y enriquecedora en la naturaleza, recomiendo a Javier sin dudarlo como guía."
