Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

We went on a day’s birdwatching at the end of March- sorry Alvaro for this late review. The weather was poor as it was cold and windy with some rain. Despite this we saw 37 different birds, of which 8 were new to us. More importantly, Alvaro was a brilliant guide. He was knowledgeable, and had the slightly uncanny knack of being able to drive with his minibus window slightly open, converse with us and recognise any interesting birdsong we encountered. He was a charming and interesting individual who talked easily and speaks English very well. So, what could have been a washout was very enjoyable and we recommend his company to anyone contemplating a birdwatching tour.

Alvaro was our guide through Nature Trek.
We are so glad he was touring with us.

He is extremely dedicated and knowledgeable. We were on a lynx and wildlife tour in Sierra Morena in Andalucia.

Alvaro did everything he could to help us spot a lynx and finally on the third day we found one. His dedication to try and make our trip unforgettable was fantastic.

We were lucky to see other wildlife too, such as otters, mufflons, deer, ibex and many birds.

Alvaro was happy to start our tours early morning and stayed out all day until darkness.
We would definitely use Alvaro’s services again. Highly recommend his services.

Dear Yael (and Gary). Many thanks for your very kind review! It was a lovely tour and I also enjoyed it very much. It'd be great to hear from you again! All the best, Álvaro Peral

Alvaro is a superb guide to the beautiful birdful area around Ronda and Malaga. His knowledge of the local flowers is excellent as well. And his enthusiasm is absolutely infectious! We'd only booked half a day tour but as his website shows, his expertise would make it worth spending a lot more time with him. He loves his job!

Alvaro is amazing, knowledgeable and well organized. He speaks really well in Spanish, English and French. We booked a tour with him from Ronda to Caminito del Rey. He was on time, his van was really comfortable and clean and he shared with us interesting stories about Andalucia and nature. When we hiked, he brought us a fresh snack, cold water, sunscreen and he took pictures and videos of us on the Caminito for souvenirs. After that, he brought us to a nice restaurant and made sure to make a reservation on the terrace with the best view. Also, he ordered local food so we can try different meals.

We enjoyed his company through out the day! We strongly recommend this guide to discover Andalucia and its nature.

We hired Alvaro for 2 days to show us birds in the Sevilla area. We have limited mobility issues, and let him know about this in advance. Alvaro was excellent! He picked us off and dropped us near our hotel (pedestrian area only at the hotel). He knew where to find the birds, was sensitive of our needs, helped us find the birds and is just an all around nice guy! We highly recommend Wild Andalucia!

I have spent a wonderful time in El Torcal with Alvaro, founder and guide of Wild Andalousia.
Really great experience looking for birds and watching ibex.

Alvaro suggested to begin early in the morning (I was based in Antequera) to be in El Torcal for sun rise. Such a great idea, everything was so quiet, colours were slowly changing and birds singing … we could even see the coast of Morocco from there …

And then we went for a small tour, small in distance, but very interesting as the landscape there is simply … incredible !
We saw ibex from very close, young adults, females and males.
Searching for birds was another objective and when looking at the list of species, it was a good day ! I am not a specialist, I learned a lot from Alvaro.
I really recommend it.

We had an absolutely fabulous day with Alvaro and Wild Andalucia! He was very communicative and flexible form first contact, always clear in his communication. We were a bit delayed arriving to Fuente de Piedras from Granada, but he was completely relaxed. He gave us a quick intro, shared binoculars, then took us afield in his comfortable van. He was always calm and inviting of questions and conversations about the birds and area. It felt like a day with a VERY knowledgeable friend. We had great luck with Common Crane, Greater and Leaser Flamingo, Iberian Gray Shrike, Marbled Duck and many others (43). I felt I learned something about every bird, most of which were lifers for me. My family are appreciative of nature, but not as enthusiastic about birding as I am. Alvaro kept them engaged and also was accommodating of their needs. I would absolutely love to go on future tours with Alvaro and I think the rest of the family would join.

Fantastic couple of days with Álvaro from Wild Andalucia finding butterflies in Sierra de Grazalema and Sierra de las Nieves National Parks.
We saw around 30-40 butterfly species each day. Álvaro was very knowledgeable and a pleasure to spend time with.
Excellent communications before my trip, convenient meeting points on tour days, great local restaurants if taking a break for lunch, very careful driver, great value and my tours were very relaxed.
I have no hesitation in recommending Álvaro and Wild Andalucia.

Alvaro treated us to a day of birding at Fuente de Piedra and what a treat it was!

Alvaro met us in town and took our family of five out to the lagoon. Flamingos were top of our list to see. Alvaro had assured us that they would be there and they were, hundreds of them. Alvaro identified 43 bird species that we saw that day (Dec. 22, 2022).

It was great to spend the day with someone whose passion is Nature. Alvaro was able to tell us all about flamingos - where they live, when they nest, what they eat and where they feed. It was delightful. And he was able to tell us about not only about the other birds we were seeing, but about the plants and insects, too.

Alvaro was a very personable and accommodating guide and host. It was definitely a highlight of our trip to Spain. It would be a joy to do more trips with Alvaro. Thanks so much!!!

This was one of the best trips ever. A variety of habitats, many different birds including my first hawfinch and black wheatears. Alvaro is a first class guide with a knowledge of his patch down t each individual bird and plant (and he introduced us to them!)
