Wonderful experience and Great Cause! - Donated a little time to a Parrot Rehabilitation center (they also assist other animals including Monkeys - have a few pics). They can release most back into the wild. Small effort on our part to help prepare food - showing one table here but there were many others. The last picture is a released parrot hanging out in a tree near the last aviary they stay in before being released. The pre-release cage is closer to the mountains and helps them and the wild birds to get to know one another so hopefully they are accepted into a community. Thank you Fundacion Loros for the tremendous work you are doing, the incredible team you have, the generosity you show and the alliance youā€™ve built with local farmers so you ā€˜trainā€™ the birds by not feeding them what the farmers grow (so when released the birds donā€™t eat their crops!) We loved the education we received! This is a must-do tour!!

Best Experience In Colombia - This was an amazing activity! The grounds of the foundation are simply stunning - all sorts of fruit trees and flowers. Beautiful! The guides are incredibly knowledgeable. I was able to prepare breakfast for the parrots and the guides provided so much information on the diet and lifestyle of rescued birds. After feeding the birds, I was able to take a tour of the sanctuary. The walks and views from the mountain are unbelievably beautiful. This is a once in a lifetime activity in Colombia (and it's for a great cause).

Natutre Adventure and Inspiring People - Highly recommended for everyone who wants to support amazing projects and wild life and the local community! We started very early to feed the parrots who had been released into wild last year and then had a breakfast right next to the feeding station. Both our guide Lili and the local person Alberto were amazing and answered all of our questions. We then went back to the farm and training facilities to learn more about the process of how birds can be guided from living in captivity to be freed into the wild again. It is all of this: adventurous, educational, immersive and inspiring.

Loro Foundation, an interesting magical place full of nature - I went from the city of Barranquilla to volunteer with my brother and the truth is that the Loro Foundation is a magical place from the moment you enter until you leave. It is a wonderful experience to see the rehabilitation of parrots, parakeets and macaws. It is something incredible that I have never seen before. I imagined living that experience knowing that all those birds are in a process of rehabilitation and reintroduction to their habitat. It is very satisfying to see that the birds regain their freedom and to see them walking freely on top of the trees. It is very hopeful to see that yes. It is possible that they will be free again. It is very very enriching. It is a very quiet place full of peace where the birds are in excellent conditions and very well cared for in their process of faith and empowerment. The truth is that it is highly recommended. I hope they get the opportunity to visit. that magical place and you can appreciate the birds that overcame the rehabilitation process and reintroduction to their natural habitat, very cool, 100% recommended.

Recommended - My experience at the parrots foundation exceeded my expectations, I had the idea of spending a day in nature out of the ordinary and on the contrary I lived unique experiences such as learning about the rehabilitation and reintroduction process of many species of parrots, getting to know the tropical dry forest, plant a tree and even catch my own lunch, I would definitely return.
