1st Class, Excellent pre tour information, and the organisation on the holiday was superb. Our guide was extremely knowledgable and informative with fantastic knowledge of all aspects of wildlife, the parks, excellent relationships with Park Guides and Hotel owners. Didn't have to worry about anything other than enjoying the experience.. 1st class..

brilliant natural history holiday in Frrance

It was a week in Provence, looking for birds, flowers and butterflies. We stayed in two small Logis hotels, both were typically French, with warm ambience and good food. We travelled short distances to varying habitats, and walked through the countryside, looking at listening to all the wildlife. It was a small group of 12, and we all got on well together. Everything was organised for us, even the picnic lumches.

Naturetrek was brilliant. The pre holiday information was excellent. The two tour leaders were very good, and looked after us very well. Everything was covered by Naturetrek - all we had to pay for was tips and drinks, and souvenirs. It was my first trip with Naturetrek, and it won't be the last - in fact, I've already booked another with them.

A great holiday for those who love nature, the out-doors and France

A regular visitor to France when our childred were young, it now must be 10+ years since we were there as we have been doing "The World". This holiday reminded me just what a fantastic country France is. The area's we visited; the Vaucluse and the Camargue, we so very different, but each had spectacular scenery and such a varied flora and fauna. Each day saw us visit a diffeerent terrain,: gorges, mountains, woodland, salt marshes, each ...

The area's we visited; the Vaucluse and the Camargue, we so very different, but each had spectacular scenery and such a varied flora and fauna. Each day saw us visit a diffeerent terrain,: gorges, mountains, woodland, salt marshes, each with its own differing flora and fauna. I enjoy bird-watching, and many years ago did a weeks bird-watching holiday. While very enjoyable, I was birded up at the end. Having both a botanist and ornithologist with us, gave the trip much more variation. Butterfly spotting was new to me but by the end of the week I was hooked. French food needs no introduction and I really enjoyed my re-aquaintance with it. A super week

They did what it says on the tin. I have very little experince of tour operators as we normally travel independantly, as we did at the end of this holiday having several days on our own on the French Riviera, The guides were particularly excellent and made the holiday.

A safari that will not be forgotten for a long time

As far as we are concerned we were completely satisfied with the holiday. The tented accommodation was really good (with proper beds and private facilities) and the camp staff were so friendly and helpful. The food was very good and we were amazed at the excellent fare the cook provided on such a "primitive" kitchen.

An unusual safari experience

This was a safari with lots of night drives to see rare mammals including Aadvarks and Black footed cats. It was very successful ( 4 aardvarks). I had been on about 30 African wildlife safaris before and never seen an aardvark so I was very pleased to see a new species. The accommodation, food and guides were all very good, and South Africa seems a very well organised, clean and friendly country.

Naturetrek always seem to organise very good holidays. Everything ran smoothly, including airport transfers as we had a tight connection at Jo'burg but were met and escorted through efficiently. I have been on over 10 holidays with this company to all parts of the world and have always been very happy with them. I often travel alone and am always confident that I will be looked after well and will travel with like-minded people.

Spain's Coto Donana & Extremadura Birdwatching.

It was a superb holiday. The 2 trip leaders were real experts in their field of birds and both excellent at identifying wild flowers. They listened to what the group wanted to see and went to great lengths to try and find good locations for seeing the given species. In addition the hotel locations were stunning, the first overlooking a lagoon and the second with wonderful views.

Expert led birdwatching & wildlife tour of Coto Donana and Extremadura regions of Spain.

First Class. 2 location tour led by outstandingly knowledgable experts for whom nothing was a problem. A well organised and thoughtfully implemented holiday delivering exactly "waht it said on the tin". First time with this company, but would definitely use again.

Surpassing expectations

My two days spent in the Forest of Dean were excellent in all ways, including the amount of wildlife seen and the care and attention of the wonderful guides who were most professional.
