Naturetrek Traveller Reviews

We spent a week at Asa Wright, and along with daily time spent on their wonderful verandah, went out on short excursions with guides.

It was an opportunity to visit a country I'd never been to and sample its wildlife

Naturetrek

Great nature, excellent guides, beautiful scenery, good food. I would recommend Naturetrek tours to anyone considering such a holiday.

Efficient administration, good communications. Reasonably priced.

We were searching for night mammals - this entailed long hours out in safari jeep until the early hours; Our main focus was to try to see various cats. Our guide was really patient and was prepared to just wait and keep watching. We had excellent views of the rare fishing cat and the jungle cat as well as excellent views of a variety of night birds and mammals And we had fun and a lot of laughter. Our guide always made sure that every person on the tour got a really good look at the animals.

I have used Naturetrek many times over the years. The office staff are excellent and very patient with my endless queries. Our pre-departure packs contain all the relevant information needed. We get excellent checklists and a detailed itinerary. And they really do take note of the feedback we give at the end of a tour and try to correct anything that has been less than satisfactory.

Superb nature and bird watching holiday in Costa Rica with Naturetrek. We saw over 400 bird species in 2 weeks plus lots of other non-avian species. The trip was very well organised and the local guide was extremely knowledgeable and helpful.

NatureTrek got everything right from travel, food, hotel locations, and most importantly the local guide without whom we wouldn't have observed half the birds/animals we saw.

A memorable holiday in Tanzania encompassing a visit to the Ngorongoro Crater and five days and nights in a camp in the southern Serengeti

Ranger Safaris in Tanzania, contracted by Naturetrek, were very good.

A two-location holiday in Portugal, encompassing the marshes and woodlands not far from Lisbon to the rolling countryside further to the east. A well-organised and good-humoured break that included much birdwatching, sightseeing, excellent chances to use telescopes and hear experts on the subject, lovely accommodation - and with some wine-tasting thrown in!

Naturetrek are experts at what they do. The holiday simply worked without any bother and I really appreciated the use of locally-run facilities and local people. I can't imagine any large tour operator having the imagination to include astronomy and ornithology in one holiday: operators like Naturetrek are absolute gems and should be encouraged.

Tailored for my husband and myself - a week at Sukau Rainforest Lodge - our 6th visit with our own guide!

Naturetrek has organised holidays for us for very many years and we have complete confidence in them.

Wildlife holiday to hopefully see lynx, wolves, bears and other mammals. Only thing I didn't get to see was wolves but that was not for want of trying by the tour leaders who were both excellent. We did also see beavers, otters, pine and stone martens plus numerous ural owls

Travelled with Naturetrek several times now and they are great. Good pre departure information and always great tour leaders who have so much knowledge about the area and wildlife expected to see. All accommodation has been good in my various trips and most meals included

Birding in such a beautiful area with two experts to help is a great experience and just the number of lifers and year-birds seen was brilliant.. Even my wife, a less keen birder, thoroughly enjoyed it. Good mix of habitats. Good accommodation for the area. Well organised itinerary,

Byron was an excellent birding guide with detailed local knowledge and found us so much. Andy also helped a great deal. Both took the time to show us clearly where to look and what to look for. Andy managed the breakdown on the motorway with great coolness and ensured the safety of the group. It was great that both were fluent Spanish speakers.
