Q&A

Q: What should I wear for the bird watching tour? Is it really casual?

A: Definitely wear something comfy! I went in early spring and layered up since it gets a bit chilly by the river. Sturdy shoes are a must since some spots can be muddy. Don’t forget sunglasses and a hat to keep the sun out of your eyes while you’re birdwatching!

Q: Is there an age limit for kids on the bird watching tour?

A: Kids ages 6 and up can join, but it’s really best for those who can walk a bit and stay quiet when watching the birds. My 8-year-old loved it, and the guide was super patient. If you’ve got younger ones, you might want to consider how long they can stay engaged.

Q: Can we reschedule if the weather's bad?

A: Yes! Foothills Birding Tours is flexible with rescheduling due to weather. Make sure to check their policy when booking, but typically they’ll let you choose another date if conditions aren’t ideal. Just give them a call to confirm!

Just booked the Bird Watching Tour in Littleton!

I’m super excited! I got this for my dad’s birthday since he loves nature. The tour is right by the South Platte River, and I hear the guide is really knowledgeable. Does anyone know if the binoculars they provide are decent? I can’t wait to spot some cool birds!

Anyone done the birding tour? Tips?

Thinking of gifting this experience for my mom's retirement. She loves birds but has never been on a guided tour. What should I expect? Any tips on what to bring?
