Wonderful bird watching and super wine experience - what more could you ask for?

Plenty of species super guide who knew were the birds were and he knew all about every species we saw! The visits to the organic vineyard was super we all learned a little and drank a little too.

Rural delight in Tuscany!

As our energy levels are not what they were, we were keen to go on a Naturetrek 'Go Slow in ...' holiday and this trip did not disappoint. The group and guides all got on very well and we had lots of fun. We were thrilled to see bird species that we've never seen before. The hotel was gorgeous - it had comfortable rooms, delicious food and wine. The staff were very friendly and helpful, going above and beyond what you'd expect. We've already ...

We've now been on 3 Naturetrek holidays. The guides have all been very knowledgeable and good company and we wouldn't hesitate to recommend them for wildlife holidays.

Wild Spring in Ardnamurchan

Small group tour (8) focussing on wildlife in the beautiful and remote Ardnamurchan peninsula, led by an expert guide. Bunkhouse accommodation and home cooked food led to it being very relaxed.

Franchises Lodge in the New Forest

The day trip was organised to a new RSPB Reserve in the New Forest. We had an excellent introduction to the site, saw a wide range of birds and other wildlife and learnt about the area, work being undertaken and the plans for the future.

My wife and I have travelled with Naturetrek many times, in the UK and overseas, and have always found the company to be well organised and reliable. Their leaders are very good.

Naturetrek-well organised, straight-forward and helped sort an earlier flight for me, as requested. Everything went smoothly. Our guide was great all the way through, sorting picnics and the best places to go, finding and identifying all the birds and other wildlife that we could see in the area.

Amazing trip on the Brahmaputra River in Assam

We spent 11 nights on the Sukapha river boat. The crew and food were wonderful. The River is fascinating with constantly moving sandbanks. Kaziranga National Park was amazing, containing 2,600+ rhino, loads of elephant, buffalo, birds, etc. We saw two tigers, one just two metres away beside a road.. We visited remote villages too, some transient on the sandbanks, and temples. We were so remote that the local people took photos of us! Our ...

Educational and inspirational

Spring in the Camargue. Very impressed with the professionalism of the company. Each day was seamlessly planned but there was always room for flexibility. The leader's knowledge of Birdlife was amazing and his eagerness to impart this knowledge contagious .

Sensational

A fabulous trip to enjoy the spring migration of raptors across the Strait of Gibraltar. The accommodation was really comfortable , you really felt like to were being welcomed to a home rather than a hotel. The guides were exceptional. Knowledgeable and friendly.

Naturetrek Wildlife Holidays

One of the most amazing adventures I've had

This small ship trip was crewed expertly and helped us see so many types of whales such as fin, blue and pilot as well as dolphins and sea lions. The grey whale experience is moving and humbling. That these creatures want to connect with humans is overwhelming and special. The food was fresh and healthy with generous portions. The crewe worked so hard to ensure we had the best experience.

Naturetrek has a variety of holidays/wildlife adventures. This trip is seasonal, so it gets booked well in advance. Naturetrek staff were helpful and kept us upto date on amy changes. They sent out plenty of information to passengers
