Puglia in Spring
A 2-centre wildlife holiday, focussing on the abundant spring flora and butterflies, led by two tireless and knowledgeable tour leaders. Included in the trip were visits to Otranto and Matera, both ancient, beautiful, cultural centres. The two hotels in this quiet heel of Italy, were rural, stylish and very comfortable.

Naturetrek run a wide variety of nature related holidays and day trips. Very well organised, provide good support, informative website and they choose experienced tour leaders.





Day in Dart Valley
A day in the Dart Valley with a guide exploring places we would never have discovered on our own. It was an excellent day out enjoying beautiful countryside and wildlife (although the weather could have been kinder).

Naturetrek are a very good organised tour operator. Their guide was great company and very knowledgeable, pointing out many interesting details about the local area and wildlife.





It wa a perfect holiday and probably one of the best holidays I have ever had!
Having been postponed from last year the holiday was perfectly timed. From start to finish all the arrangements went well. The itinerary was varied and the lodges were all very different but excellent in their own way. What made it very special was the group of people I travelled with who were incredibly nice and easy to get on with and our guide Paco was the star of the show!

I have now travelled with Naturetrek twice in the last 5 months and both trips were very memorable. As a company, Naturetrek take a lot of trouble to liaise with their clients, making themselves very approachable and friendly if you need help with anything (ie the complex forms during the pandemic!). The wonderful online roadshows and webinars were an amazing idea and helped an enormous amount of people who love to travel and appreciate nature get through lockdown and also brought the staff closer to their clients.





Walberswick Day Trip
A beautiful sunny day exploring the different habitats around Walberswick, starting immediately from the car park with a viewing of a glossy Ibis. The morning continued with lots of sightings. Having the scope gave us fantastic views of the different birds as Brian gave a wealth of information and facts. We were all ready for our lunch and wondering if the afternoon could be any better.

A beautiful sunny day exploring the different habitats around Walberswick, starting immediately from the car park with a viewing of a glossy Ibis. The morning continued with lots of sightings. Having the scope gave us fantastic views of the different birds as Brian gave a wealth of information and facts. We were all ready for our lunch and wondering if the afternoon could be any better. We were not disappointed, fantastic close view of a Dartford warbler and a woodlark singing his heart out before landing on a nearby football goalpost. After a wonderful day we went back tired and happy.

Brian was an excellent guide , whose local knowledge was invaluable. Most impressively, he identified some rare garganey ducks which were quite a distance away. With out his expertise we would have missed so much,.





Central and North Costa Rica birding experience
A 16 day holiday to central and northern Costa Rica visiting 7 different sites to get a flavour for the country, people and wildlife (predominantly birds). The tour was led by an expert local guide with a party of 10 clients from the UK. The tour involved two separate cruises and walks each day to different habitats.

Nature Trek pre tour info is excellent; also assistance with Covid rules and Paperwork. Very helpful with extra information requests and solving problems.





Best of Southern Costa Rica
Very good adventure with an excellent guide and some amazing wildlife experiences. The hotels and lodges were, as stated by Naturetrek, comfortable and well located with friendly staff everywhere. Costa Rica was beautiful, clean and friendly and surpassed my expectations. The roads were excellent.

Naturetrek gave us a full itinerary beforehand and this was fulfilled, there were some alterations in the length of the tour, it was extended by 2 days due to flight changes, but this was fully dealt with by Naturetrek and actually we believed it enhanced the tour.
