Information Needed: Birding Central Peru for a week in November/December (2 Viewers)

[lgonz1008]

Looking for some recommendations on guides/companies I can use for a week or less in Peru.

I'm thinking of maybe doing 5 days out of Lima to target the White-bellied Cinclodes, Junin Grebe, Diameded Sandpiper-Plover, White-cheeked Cotinga and a couple other Andean species plus a pelagic for Humboldt Penguin and Albatross.

Is there a good local agent that can help me with this? The only options I've seen online are Tanager Tours and Kolibri Expeditions, but I'm sure there's some more budget friendly options that I'm missing.

If someone also has an alternative that can give me a good number of targets for the time, I'm all ears for that too.

You can try Julio Benites, he is a driver who has been working with birding tourism for decades and knows where all the birds are, local contacts etc. He won't be pointing birds out to you but he will take you to the exact spot where you can see the targets.
