Naturetrek Traveller Reviews

learning and discovering animal tracks in the Swedish winter

Naturetrek provided a lot of informative information upfront which helped with the planning of the holiday ( suggested packing list was very helpful) and the intinary which detailed the plan for each day -l subject to change if the weather changed. The guides for the trip were passionate and well informed and looked after us very well.

A Naturetrek trip is always full of the local wildlife and this trip did not disappoint. Flowers were plentiful and identified readily by expert leaders, there were fewer birds but still some highlights. It was in the 'extras' though that this holiday excelled - including a climb to the crater rim of Mount Vesuvius, a visit to the ruins of Pompeii and a day trip to the magical Island of Capri. The hotel was excellent and the staff treated you like friends rather than just guests. A wonderful experience as ever.

Efficient, organised, value for money and leaders of great knowledge and expertise

This is the latest of a number of holidays I have taken with Naturetrek all of which have been very satisfactory and of a high standard in relation to arrangements,execution and fulfilment of expectations.happy holiday in all respects.

Efficient and capable of delivering as promised.

A guided nature tour focusing on birds but also mammals. The standard of guides was very high and we saw many species we would not have seen without them. The hotels were were very good too.

This is the third time we have used Naturetrek. They visit places we would struggle to see otherwise and their organisation and attention to detail is excellent.

Deafened by nightingales -how good is that. Early morning walks with mist across the fields and nothing but the sound and sight of birds stirring. H, and a wild boar,too. Daily trips with patient, knowledgeable tour leaders who pointed out some amazing birds to us. Leisurely lunches in good company and then yet more birds to find in the afternoons. We even had time for a bit of culture - the lovely old city of Arles and a romantic old monastery that looked beautiful in the distance and very impressive up close. We ended each day with a delicious meal of home made French cuisine and generally, a fairly early bedtime so as to be ready for the next day's pre breakfast walk and another day of discovery and pleasure. Such a lovely holiday. Can't wait to have another one!

Naturetrek, whom I have travelled with n several occasions in the past but never on my own. I was very uncertain about this but was totally reassured. The only down side was the hideously early flight time out of Gatwick but tha was not their fault. All was done by Naturetrek to make that as painless as possible for us. Our guides were very knowledgeable and the min buses that we travelled in very comfortable. I will certainly travel with them again and would recommend them to any other birding friends.

I went with a friend for our second Naturetrek holiday. this time we went to the Camargue at the beginning of this month. It is such a beautiful part of France and we were lucky with a bit of wind so no mosquitoes! Our leaders were so well organized, friendly and ever helpful with information. We saw some lovely birds. The accommodation was very good and the food good too. We had a delightful group of travellers - the whole thing was entirely pleasurable. We will certainly use Naturetrek again in the future.

well organized, welcoming and efficient.

It was very full on, the arrangements was very well organised , Happy to go again.

Keep me well informed, the guide was very good.I would recommend them to others.

This was a two centre holiday using experienced guides to study the Sicilian flora and particularly to search for rare orchid specimens. The hotels used were chosen specifically for their location in botanical hot spots and were perfectly adequate for our requirements. Transport was provided by mini-buses driven by the guides. All food and most drinks were included in the cost of the holiday. Naturetrek booking arrangements were excellent and our aircraft seating was pre-booked. All in all an excellent holiday perfectly organized.

Naturetrek provided everything that one could expect from a specialist operator and I would recommend them for any natural history holiday.

Excellent birdwatching experience, including a pre-breakfast dawn chorus excursion. The 2 days were led by excellent guides, who tried and generally succeeded in finding the birds on the parties wishlist, including Bitterns, Hobbys and Garganeys. The accomodation and meals, including the lunchtime pub stops were of a high quality.

From booking to finish of the tour the organisation was excellent, transport to to the sites was well organised and well driven by our guides

It was a very good and enjoyable holiday. Everything was very well organised. The guides were very knowledgeable and friendly. Could not have been organised better.

Friendly, efficient. Good detailed information. Everything very well organised Extremely satisfied
