Great birding holiday

Extremadura in central Spain offers wide-open spaces and is very rich in bird life, from azure-winged magpies and hoopoes to eagles, vultures and the impressive great bustard. We stayed in a small, friendly family-run hotel with a delightful garden, including orange and lemon trees laden with fruit. A nightingale sang outside the window in the early morning. There was a glorious view of the surrounding unspoilt countryside.

Amazing

Go Slow in Extremadura was based at a friendly, family-run hotel near Trujillo, led by 2 very clued-up guys, one English, one Spanish.

We also had great views of roller, bee-eater, hoopoe, bustarts and many more (over 100 bird species in all). All this in ...

All this in warm Spanish sunshine, with a group of very friendly people, flower-covered steppes, a variety of butterflies, reptiles and mammals also "thrown in"..

Naturetrek were helpful and efficient from start to finish. I chose their offer of this kind of leisurely week's birding etc. hoping that it would fit my needs (80 year-old frame with two new hip joints!) It worked a treat.
