“ As a family with 3 teenagers we had the pleasure to travel with Steve and Eva for 2 weeks in Peru. Their deep knowledge about Peru’s heritage and wildlife made our trip a real immersion into this beautiful country. Their contagious passion for birding was a totally new family experience for us and that we truly enjoyed. The quality of their staff, their kindness and attention for details has transformed our trip into a life time experience. Muchas Gracias”

“I had the most incredible experience on the bird photography tour led by Steve Sanchez. His deep knowledge of bird behavior and habitats made each part of the tour unforgettable. Not only did I capture stunning images of rare and beautiful birds, but I also gained invaluable insights into their natural environment. Steve’s support was fantastic in each aspect, finding the targeted birds, discussing the right camera settings and even photo editing.
Also, the logistics were superb; the transfers were always on time, the arranged hotels and lodges were very good and very well planned according to the targeted birds.
I have been taking bird photos for about 17 years. In this tour, we were 3 friends from Turkey, and Steve was part of our Team with his warm, friendly and professional approaches in each and every step of the tour. We had 2 weeks bird photography tour in February 2024 and this tour in Colombia with Steve was one of the best tours I have ever had. We are looking forward for the next tour with him.
I highly recommend Steve’s tours to any bird photographer and bird watcher seeking both breathtaking shots and expert guidance on birding and wildlife.”

“After visiting 43 countries, birding on 6 continents and numerous islands while observing thousands of species of birds with many different guides and tour groups, I would choose Steve Sanchez as the best. My wife and I had our most enjoyable and productive birding experiences with him during five trips throughout Peru and into Columbia, including deep into the Amazon region. We look forward to our next chance to be on one of his tours.”
“İki senede bir yaptığımız kuş fotoğraf turumuzu bu sene Kolombiya ya yaptık. Yeni bir rehber ile turumuzu organize ettik. Kuntur Turizm Şirketi Steve Sanchez ile görüştük ve turumuz için anlaştık.
Şubat ayı başında yorucu bir uçak yolculuğu ile Bogota ya ulaştık. Karşılaştığımız ilk andan , turun sonuna kadar tamamen sorunsuz bir rehberlik ve çok güzel bir program ile gezimizi tamamladık.
Çok güzel fotoğraflar çektik. Türleri iyi tanıdığı için çekim yaparken sürekli bize hatırlatmalar yaptı. Ayrıca çekim değerleri ile ilgili tavsiyelerde bulundu , bunun iyi fotoğraf çekmemize etkisi büyük oldu.
Ayrıca kalmak için seçtiği oteller ve transfer aracımız da çok iyi idi. Söförümüz Hector da çok uyumlu ve yardımsever idi.
Güney Amerika da fotoğraf turu için Steve doğru seçimdir. Profesyonelliği , olgun kişiliği ve sıcakkanlılığı ile oralarda bir arkadaşımız olduğu için şanslıyız.”
“We had been planning a Colombia bird photography trip for a long time. We got support from Steve Sanchez from Kuntur Birding for the 2 week trip.
From the first day we landed at Bogota Airport to the last day of the trip, Steve prepared a very comfortable, planned and efficient travel program for us. In addition to adhering to the entire program, he made great efforts to take beautiful photographs throughout the trip by reshaping the program according to the weather conditions and the conditions of the shooting areas. The hotels he chose for accommodation and our route were also very nice. Our transportation vehicle and driver were excellent.
All in all, we enjoyed these two weeks very much. Steve (Kuntur Birding) has become our first choice for the entire South American continent with his professionalism. We also gained a friend with this trip. We’re already planning our next trip with Steve! :)”
“Si América del Sur es el “continente de las aves” y el Perú su puerta de entrada, Steve Sánchez Calle es el guía. Lo conozco desde hace 10 años y desde entonces lo elijo como líder en la aventura de descubrir su país y su avifauna. Steve es el compañero ideal que nos abre las puertas y devela a cada paso la cultura, riquezas, misterios y aves del Perú.”
“I have arranged several trips to Peru and Colombia with Steve. On every occasion, he has been excellent, providing the group with everything we need including transport, accommodation and food. He is a first-class guide, an excellent birder and wonderful photographer. He’s also a really nice guy. We’re looking forward to another trip with him in Autumn 2024.”
“Nuestro viaje con Kuntur Birding fue un éxito en 2022. Steve Sánchez es un pajarero que sabe muchísimo de fotografía y un gran fotógrafo que conoce muy bien las aves, no solo las especies más fotogénicas. Ideal para pajareros a los que les guste tomar fotos (o vídeo) de las aves y para fotógrafos que quieran ver muchas especies.”
“We have travelled twice to Peru with Steve and Kuntur Birding in recent years and on both trips Steve has been exceptional. From organizing the logistics, the itinerary, the birding and the photographic opportunities, all were outstanding. Steve’s bird knowledge and guiding skills are remarkable, in fact, in my experience, he is unparalleled.”
