Naturetrek Traveller Reviews

It was focussing on alpine flowers and we were taken to some stunning places. The holiday was designed to be less strenuous but stil include walks and visits by cable car/ chair lifts to higher areas

Naturetrek focussed on wildlife holidays with small groups and expert leaders. They are well planned, I rushed and individual interests are catered for.

An unforgettable week in Zambia. The abundance of wildlife, and the depth of knowledge of our guide were breath-taking. Each day we saw animals and birds in the national park, but also around our lodgings, and on the drive to Luangwa. We spent one morning in the nearby village, and found the school an inspiration, as well as the local craftspeople.

I had used Naturetrek once before, and was impressed by their down-to-Earth way of working. This holiday ran just as smoothly, and I felt confident that any problems we may encounter would be overcome with honesty and efficiency. (The only problems were with the airline - a nuisance, but not enough to spoil the holiday)

It was our first holiday using Naturetrek and we were not disappointed! Our holiday focused on the birdlife and wine of the Rioja, Navara and Pyrenees regions of Spain.

It was our first time using Naturetrek. They were very well organised, friendly and helpful to deal with and through the pre holiday documents they provided, made us confident that we were important to them. We are already considering other holidays with Naturetrek.

A full-board week's holiday in the Causses area of France above the Gorge du Tarn. Hunting for flowers, birds and insects in the splendid, unpopulated, hilly area of France was a delight. The knowledge of the two leaders was excellent and the record they kept of our sightings was impeccable.

They provided an accurate summary of the holiday. The trip was not cheap but there were 2 guide/drivers for maximum14 people. Pre departure information was informative and sent in plenty of time. Very efficient and pleasant with queries on the phone.

Over eight trips out on the catamaran we saw five species of whales and five species of dolphin. On the last trip with the sun turning the sea to gold and the boat surrounded by dolphins the sight was one I will never forget. There was lots of choice of things to do on our two land based days as well.

Both Naturetrek and Futurismo who run the boat trips are well organised, friendly and helpful. The marine biologists on the catamaran were very knowledgeable as was the Naturetrek tour guide.

This holiday was to see the Victoria Falls. I also used it as a nature holiday. I stayed at two lodges, both were excellent, the staff could not do enough for you. Kafunta & Waterberry, Requested to e.at local meals which were provided which was brilliant. I have some difficulties in walking and there was all the help I needed and above.

Naturetrek is a company I have used many times and have always given me excellent service, they know my limitations and advise me whether I can do the holiday or not, which I really appreciate as some companies would take your money and not tell you of some of the adversities that might need to be dealt with. This is why I use this company exclusively for my nature holidays.

Naturetrek. Excellent bird guides and local arrangements for accommodation, travel and meals worked smoothly.

All three of us thoroughly enjoyed our experience of Romania. It was the first time for all of us and we were delighted with the country and its people. The holiday focussed on the flora and fauna of the Carpathian mountains which exceeded expectations. Our guides were very knowledgeable and extremely helpful, looking after us all very well.

A good, reliable company that I have used before very successfully
