Good food, good company amazing wildlife experience

Based in the excellent Alladale Wilderness Reserve each day was packed with oppertunities to see wildlife in the company of experts. Not being a knowledgeable bird watcher I was able to see many species that I either hadn't seen before or just hadn't been able to identify. As a nature based holiday there are no guarantees but I was able to see 101 species 35 of which were new to me, ranging from Redpolls to Goldes Eagles and Red Squirrels to ...

Based in the excellent Alladale Wilderness Reserve each day was packed with oppertunities to see wildlife in the company of experts. Not being a knowledgeable bird watcher I was able to see many species that I either hadn't seen before or just hadn't been able to identify. As a nature based holiday there are no guarantees but I was able to see 101 species 35 of which were new to me, ranging from Redpolls to Goldes Eagles and Red Squirrels to Killer Whales. The Lodge staff couldn't be more helpful or adaptable to the needs of the group.

Rating for tour operator:

We have had two holidays and three day trips with Naturetrek, all of which have been very enjoyable and organised to provide excellent wildlife watching oppertunities. The staff are always helpful and the experts they provide are very knowledgeable without making you feel patronised.

Our tour operator was Naturetrek. They organised the hole trip from the start to finish. Nothing seems to be too much trouble for them to make it a very enjoyable experience for you.

A memorable wildlife and history tour that exceeded expectations

Naturetrek's pre-departure communication and customer care were top notch. Every question had been anticipated and knowledgeable staff were readily available if needed. Our local guide in Northern Portugal could not have been better and our itinerary, though busy, was excellent. The hotels were very well chosen: different in style but of equally high quality with outstanding local food and wine. Every day brought new experiences: fascinating ...

Naturetrek's pre-departure communication and customer care were top notch. Every question had been anticipated and knowledgeable staff were readily available if needed. Our local guide in Northern Portugal could not have been better and our itinerary, though busy, was excellent. The hotels were very well chosen: different in style but of equally high quality with outstanding local food and wine. Every day brought new experiences: fascinating contrasts in landscapes and wildlife along with cultural experiences we will long remember, e.g., a night time visit to a UNESCO World Heritage site known for its Paleolithic rock carvings. We cannot fault any aspect of the tour, which was our first holiday abroad since COVID. All in all, an excellent and truly memorable holiday, as well as very good value for money.

Rating for tour operator:

We have travelled with quite a few speciality tour operators and Naturetrek is far and away the best. From our first contact with them (a phone call to ask a few questions about the trip we were considering) to their post-holiday follow-up, they demonstrated truly exceptional customer service. Naturetrek's travel documents were outstanding and they kept us well informed about the ever-changing COVID requirements. We felt that our post-trip feedback was genuinely valued by the company - there is no doubt that they are very keen to keep their clients happy. In fact, most of the people on our small group tour were repeat customers. Although this was our first Naturetrek holiday, it certainly will not be our last. Total points for customer care: 12 out of 10!

Unique

It was our first African safari and hopefully not our last. It exceeded expectations and was a unique holiday as camping in the bush in sight and sound of lions, hippos, hyenas etc brought a whole new element to the experience. Our guides Partner and Banda were wonderful and all the camp staff worked hard to ensure our happiness. Our late night campfire chats were always highly entertaining.

We have traveled many times with Naturetrek and have never been disappointed. Whether we have chosen a 'package' or had a tailor made trip every element has worked well leaving us with nothing but happy memories of some truly wonderful journeys to countries we never dreamed we would see.

Wildlife holiday to Portuguese mountains

With Naturetrek. Walking and wildlife spotting - many flowers, insects, butterflies and birds, also a few reptiles and amphibians. Excellent food and lovely hotels with a warm welcome.

Rating for tour operator:

Naturetrek has small groups so there is plenty of time for all activities. Transport is in people carrier type vehicles with driver/guides. The trips seem pricey when looking at the brochure but so much is included they compare VERY favourably with other tour operators and concentrate on less visited areas so there are not crowds of other tourists!

A week of spectacular wildlife

We flew into Lourdes airport and were taken by four minibuses to our splendid, recently renovated hotel in Gedre, The Hotel La Breche de Roland - spectacular view of the snow-capped mountains beyond the breche. Each day, fueled by a generous breakfast and picnics, we had hot sunshine for our walks through the local valleys, stopping frequently to admire or photograph. We saw everything we had been promised, mostly in excess of the promises, ...

We flew into Lourdes airport and were taken by four minibuses to our splendid, recently renovated hotel in Gedre, The Hotel La Breche de Roland - spectacular view of the snow-capped mountains beyond the breche. Each day, fueled by a generous breakfast and picnics, we had hot sunshine for our walks through the local valleys, stopping frequently to admire or photograph. We saw everything we had been promised, mostly in excess of the promises, and always closer than expected. I never thought we would get so close to so many lammergeiers! At times we were walking along a ridge as they swooped alongside, even below us. At every brief stop, two of our four guides would set up spotting scopes - skillfully focussed on the topical feature for us to view. My daughter Kim took hundreds of spectacular pictures.

Rating for tour operator:

Everything was well-choreographed, with our leaders constantly on the look-out for the best way of using the weather or countryside, which they all knew intimately. Our paperwork was exemplary, and the only hitch came on our return journey, when our aircraft had to be replaced for safety reasons.

Trip of a lifetime

Safari in Botswana to look at mammals. The range of animal life seen was beyond my expectations, the guides were outstanding.
