Hunting Lemurs in Madagascar
The holiday exceeded my greatest expectations. I booked and Madagascar Wildlfie holiday with a focus on Lemurs and in 19 days I saw 20 Lemurs in their natural habitat. What more could you ask. In this case, more was another 50 species of wildlife in addition to the Lemurs. The accommodations were comfortable, the staff attentive and friendly, and the forests were fascinating.

Have travelled with Naturetrek on many previous occasions to many different parts of the world, including the UK. I have always found them to be very professional in their operations and to have well-qualified and engaging tour leaders.

Mammals and birds of Brazil
14 day guided tour to the Amazon rainforest and the Pantanal. We had a highly skilled guide and saw 248 bird and 21 mammal species including harpy eagles, jaguars, tapirs and zig-jag heron. Our guide was excellent and took us to a wide range of habitats. We were spotting wildlife all day when we weren't travelling, including night safaris and boat safaris.

Very helpful when we were making the booking and helped us with additional options. Always friendly. Very well informed. Lots of helpful written info before setting off.





Norfolk in Winter birdwatching
A 3 day visit to north Norfolk to see the birds wintering on the wash and surrounding areas. Excellent and extremely knowledgeable leader. Accommodation at Le Strange Arms, Hunstanton was convenient and comfortable with good food.

Naturetrek designed an excellent tour to suit our particular requirements. Everything went to plan with no major problems.





thoroughly enjoyable
the Scilly Isles is not a budget location, so going on an organised tour makes it easy as the guides have the local knowledge on where to go, when to go and how to get there. as it was mainly a birdwatching holiday, the guide always had up to date information on rare bird species and where to find them. When no reports were forthcoming, the experienced leader new all the locations to find great birding activity. the accommodation was friendly ...

Thank you for a great trip.

Fulfilling
New destination for me to see new birds at the right pace with clean comfortable accommodation and good food. The local guide new his stuff was helpful and pleasant to be with. A reason for this holiday choice is to see a part of Greece unknown, Naturetrek do not disappoint.

I have used other tour operators but come back to Naturtrek because I trust them to provide what I want and when with total efficiency.





Brilliant
Excellent organisation of the whole trip; excellent guides; saw all the wildlife I had hoped for and at really close quarters.

Well organised throughout: from enquiry, through booking, pre-trip information, and the whole trip itself. Faultless.
