Naturetrek is very well organised and is always willing to accommodate anyone's wishes. The guides are very knowledgeable and great company. They always use friendly accommodation that complement the tours of the local area.

A Spring holiday filled with many surprise experiences.

The accommodation and food was excellent. Our local leader was able to take us to where we were able to see any unusual birds that were about, as well as many of the beautiful flowers and items of interest..

Wild Slovenia - fab holiday

Slovenia was a great country to visit and the location for the holiday ideal. The knowledge of the local Slovene leader was essential although the main leader also knew the area well. Good to have a wildlife holiday with only one base. No constant packing, unpacking and spending lots of time travelling. Good accommodation in a very nice village where we could explore at will in our spare time. Varied interest holiday which meant there was always ...

Slovenia was a great country to visit and the location for the holiday ideal. The knowledge of the local Slovene leader was essential although the main leader also knew the area well. Good to have a wildlife holiday with only one base. No constant packing, unpacking and spending lots of time travelling. Good accommodation in a very nice village where we could explore at will in our spare time. Varied interest holiday which meant there was always something to see. Travel split between two minibuses and we constantly rotated round so we could chat the different particupants and the two leaders. Good basic food in plentiful quantity although rural Slovene cuisine not very exciting. NIce number of participants and we all learnt from each other as well as from the leaders. Well organised, good communication about the itinerary each day and plenty of time to realx after a hectic day out in the field.

Naturetrek run a wide range of guided nature tours all over the world. These tours are competitively priced and this was the fourth tour I had been on. All Excellent.

UNCONVENTIONAL MEMORABLE MAMMAL SEARCH

Five days in Sweden tracking wild mammals. Although not all mammals were seen or heard, the whole five days was spent experiencing their habit with lots of evidence of their proximity, particularly Beavers and Wild Boar. Wolf droppings also proved we were within their territory even if they did not want to answer our Tour Operator's (very realistic) calls. Moose day was wet but we were still lucky to come across a few including Mum and yearling...

Five days in Sweden tracking wild mammals. Although not all mammals were seen or heard, the whole five days was spent experiencing their habit with lots of evidence of their proximity, particularly Beavers and Wild Boar. Wolf droppings also proved we were within their territory even if they did not want to answer our Tour Operator's (very realistic) calls. Moose day was wet but we were still lucky to come across a few including Mum and yearling. Three Bear sightings were a real boost at the end of the five days (worth the night without sleep). The Black Woodpecker feeding her young was also a bonus even for those not necessarily into bird-watching. Picnicking (even in the rain) was good fun as locations were picturesque and the speedy erection of tarpaulin to keep us all protected from the elements was an excellent additional amenity. I did not take many photographs so nothing to download. I preferred to observe with the naked eye rather than a camera Also, being in a small group made the experience more personal, facilitated interaction with like-minded people the same time as giving space for individual enjoyment and experience. All in all an excellent trip which I would recommend to anyone wanting an adventure whilst maintaining some creature comforts.

Rating for tour operator:

Personable, easy-going, informative and enthusiastic. He certainly knew his mammals and appeared to enjoy his work and passing on information to others. He made the five days memorable in a relaxed, educational and fun way. His choices of refreshment stops where we were made to feel very welcome were perfect as were his tracking and picnic locations, etc. I would certainly do another Tour with him in the future possibly extending to camping and living in the mammals' habitat (rather than B&B)

Appenines, Cold,wet but amazing

The holiday was Naturetreks fiesta holiday in Abruzzo. Bears Butterflies and flowers. The weather was cold and wet. apart from the first and last days, Which were the only days we saw butterflies. The flowers were late flowering but we just saw earlier flowering flowers. The orchids were still amazing. Very special. We did see abear and one couple had a pair of wolves pass in front of them. Jessicas organisation was amazing

First time we have travelled with Nature trek. We were interested in the large group. We have had a holiday with a small group, ruined by a very obnoxious couple. who were rude to guides and other clients. Of course this time, everyone was very pleasant. The trip was well organised and flexible which was needed with the inclement weather

A Baltic island holiday

A week of enjoying spring birds and flowers on the beautiful island of Oland. This was very definitely a holiday aimed at birdwatchers but nevertheless we saw a wonderful variety of flowers. I look forward to returning to Oland, perhaps slightly later when the orchids and other flowers are at their peak. Our accommodation at Gammelsbygarden was first class, as were the meals.

Awesome Orkney

Orkney is a wonderful mixture of achingly beautiful scenery, active birdlife and Neolithic history. Naturetrek ensured that every element was well covered. Our guide ensured we were in the right place at the right time to see so much of what Orkney had to offer.

Rating for tour operator:

Naturetrek made things straightforward right from the beginning. The website and brochures include a tempting but realistic description of the holiday, later proved by experience. The booking process was simple, including tailoring the holiday by adding extra nights at the hotel. An excellent guide and transport were provided to take us where we needed to be to see all that was on offer.

How to become a fully fledged bird watcher

Went to the Camargue with apprehension as we were not avid bird watchers but with the help of two excellent guides and the rest of the party where turned into experts. Enjoyed every trip and walk with loads of birds being spotted to educate us.
