I'm on summer break! Tours will resume in September. Planning a trip? Contact me at madridbirdguide@gmail.com.
What Can I See?
From urban parks to the nearby countryside, a massive number of species call Madrid home. No matter your experience level, we customise every walk to focus on the target birds you are most excited to find. Below, you can browse the species we regularly encounter on our tours (please note that many are season-dependent).
Birding isn’t the only highlight—keep an eye out for local mammals, too! We occasionally cross paths with wild boars, Iberian red foxes, and native Iberian red squirrels on our walks.
