Enjoy unforgettable birdwatching tours and bird photography tours with like-minded guests.
Spaces and dates are limited. Please book early.
Every year we promote a selection of our most popular and new products for small groups to join on scheduled departure dates. These tours are perfect for those travelling alone or who want to explore with others. Private tours come highly recommended for custom experiences and dates that suit you or when travelling with friends.
Please see our Group Tour Schedule below.
*More tour date releases coming soon*
If these dates or duration don’t suit you, email us to open your own group tour or book a private birding or photography tour. A reasonable level of fitness is required on our group tours. If you have specific needs or target experiences/photos, we recommend a private tour.
Solo guests may opt to share a twin room (subject to suitability) or choose single supplement. Accommodation is in standard en-suite rooms (twin or double share) and can be upgraded on private tours. Camping options (on request) offer a comfortable elevated stretcher tent with bedding and the same standard of excellence in guiding services. Camping may be required in some extremely remote sites on specialised itineraries.
