In the San Juan Islands we can provide a van for your group at a rate of $2.00 per mile plus any ferry fares if applicable. For most tours, it is best if you provide a vehicle that can also accommodate your guide. The use of kayaks or ferry transportation are available depending on your birding goals, however their use incurs additional costs. Birding tours in locations more than a one hour drive from Seattle, except for San Juan Island, require travel time and expense reimbursement to your guide at a per diem rate of $99 per day for one day tours and $199 per day for tours that require your guide to spend the night away from their home. Furthermore, the half-day tour rate is not available and tour fees will be based on the full-day rate even if the tour you request is shorter.
