About this tour
The Great Salt Lake draws millions of breeding waterbirds and even more during migration, creating a remarkable window into Utah’s wildlife. Join this Salt Lake City Birding and Nature Adventure to explore the lake and learn about the flora and fauna of this distinctive natural wonder, sometimes called “America’s Dead Sea.”
Travel by private transportation and scan the shoreline and surrounding habitat for birdlife. A spotting scope is provided, bringing birds and other animals 30–60x closer for a clearer look. Bottled water and all fees and taxes are included. Your guide speaks English, and the experience is suitable for all physical fitness levels. Infants and small children can ride in a pram or stroller, with public transportation options available nearby.
Bring your own binoculars or camera if you’d like to use them; neither is provided. Snacks, soda, alcoholic drinks, and meals are also not included. Discover the Great Salt Lake’s changing birdlife and natural character on this Salt Lake City Birding and Nature Adventure.

How this score is calculated
This score is based on one provider. Viator rates it 5.00 from 6 reviews. We place that rating among all Viator ratings and weight it by its review count. If the tour is found on another provider later, both ratings are combined.
How the score works and rating distribution in Salt Lake City
- Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
- Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
- Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
- The result is shown from 0 to 10: this tour scores 7.4. Top 21% in Salt Lake City means it ranks in the top 21% of tours in Salt Lake City by this score.
