Local Birdingpal Contacts
Local Birdwatchers
Using the Birdingpal resources you must agree to the following: If you contact a local Birdingpal and make arrangement to go birding, you should note it is common courtesy to make sure you show up for the appointment. If for any reason you are unable to do this, the least you must do is contacting the local Pal right away.
Please note that most Birdingpals are serious birdwatchers. It is a privilege to contact them, and your message should reflect it. A local Pal does not get paid, but should he/she offer to take you out birding, using their own vehicle, it would be courteous to pay for the fuel. A lunch and/or a small gift would also be appropriate, something as simple as a souvenir of your country, or a pin from your local birding club.

We would like to introduce Ghoghnos Tour and Travel Agency as one of the pioneer ground handlers across country to operate bird watching tours as prime specialty. Persia is a large country which until recently has been a difficult destination for birders to visit. But since it’s contains most of the neighboring species all together and also are considered to be one of the main wintering destinations in the Middle East, it can represent a fabulous birding experience for many birdwatchers across the globe. Come and witness the nature, heritage and culture of this glorious land amidst the peace and vitality of a modern and exciting present. With the pure hospitality of Persians, Iran continues to spread the red carpet for tourists from all over the world.
