Andrew was amazing ! Despite the dreadful weather he kept us all motivated and was really informative and upbeat. I would definitely do another trip with him.

Fantastic Fungi

A great day trip on Fungi of The Brecks for complete beginners. Our leader Su was able to show us how to identify fungi into families and then some into species, she discussed habitat requirements, timing and aging of the fungi. Su was patient and informative and we had a great day out. Su also identified birds and plants as we went round.

Guided cetacean & birdwatching trip at Berry Head, Devon UK

We had a private walking trip observing birds & cetaceans in a variety of environments (headland, copse, field, cliff, harbour) & saw a wide variety of fauna as well as learning about the history, geology, flora, butterflies etc thanks to our expert guide, Mike who had been birdwatching in the area for decades. We couldn’t have asked for a better guide, clearly an expert with a wealth of knowledge to draw on as well as able to tailor the trip ...

We couldn’t have asked for a better guide, clearly an expert with a wealth of knowledge to draw on as well as able to tailor the trip to the group, particularly as one of us had limited mobility. I learnt so much & saw so many birds & a porpoise & a seal that I would never have seen on my own.

Rating for tour operator:

I was a guest of Ann Roberts so didn’t deal directly with Naturetrek, however the organisation of the tour appeared flawless, & was extremely well tailored to the physical limitations of one of our party, which made the day very enjoyable for all 4 of us.

Mike was simply superb. He had been forewarned that I was somewhat temporarily disables ,walking slowly on two poles. He anticipated my need to sit, use the facilities. In fact he made the day with the help of all the bids, habitats etc etc that we saw. We thought we knew the area(we live an hour away & have visited often.

Attention to detail by the two excellent tour leaders.

A wildlife adventure led by two excellent guides/leaders who, between them, introduced us to so many wildlife sights, sounds and experiences.

Ring ouzels, Fieldfares and sundews on Dartmoor

Day trip to S Dartmoor. Good weather. Knowledgeable , likeable guide, Matt . Total walk about 12 miles which only 2/5 managed to complete. Would have benefitted from a midmorning and midafternoon break for toilet, snacks and drinks. Also a longer lunch break would have allowed more time to enjoy the meal , rest and find a bush toilet. However good views of ring ouzels and flock of field fares and interesting bog walk at end.

Matt who lives locally and knows the area well and very knowledgeable about wildlife. Considerably younger than the 5 participants who were all 65+

A great day out on a glorious part of the coast, led by an enthusiastic & knowledgable guide, Jonathan Mycock.

My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our day-trip wildlife spotting at ‘Pagham Harbour, West Sussex’ where we saw more than 45 different bird species. Our guide Jonathan Mycock was always quick to immediately name any bird we saw even the slightest glimpse of or just heard its call. The countryside was beautiful and the views we captured in our photographs quite amazing.
