I had an amazing birding experience with Magnus in Regent’s Park. His enthusiasm and knowledge about birds made the whole experience so enjoyable. I never realized how diverse the birdlife in London could be! I felt comfortable and truly had a fantastic time. Definitely a five-star experience, and I can’t wait to do it again!

One of the best London experiences I’ve had! Bird Watching in Regents Park with Magnus was great fun. My wife bought me the experience for my birthday and I loved every minute. Magnus knows a huge amount about birds, he’s so enthusiastic and he’s a great teacher. Highly recommend!

A bird is flying towards the camera, with a cityscape featuring tall buildings in the background. The focus is on the bird, giving it a sharp appearance against the blurred urban backdrop.

My husband and I have twice now done a bird tour of Regent’s Park with Magnus, once as a birthday gift for one of our sons and once as a gift for friends visiting London, and both times it’s been fascinating.

Magnus is a font of knowledge and education about birds and manages to relay detailed information with enthusiasm and humour. We have seen more birds than I imagined possible, including a Little Owl. I highly recommend this unique experience for anyone interested in London’s birds and birds in general.

Highly recommended Bird Watching experience! I was given the birdwatching experience with Magnus as a birthday present, having just started on my birding journey. I couldn't have asked for better; Magnus was incredibly knowledgeable, passionate and generous. It was such a fun and absorbing morning. We saw 49 species, who would have thought in Regent's Park, including a Peregrine Falcon on the Baker street tower. I could not have asked for a better experience of a better guide.
