We invite you to join our unforgettable birdwatching tours, bird photography tours & nature photography tours with small groups of like-minded guests.
Spaces & dates are limited.
Please book early.
Every year we promote a selection of our most popular and new products for small group scheduled departure dates. These tours are perfect for those travelling in couples, with friend or alone & those wanting 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.
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 and international tours.
See our FAQ page for more trip planning information.
