Our small group wildlife & nature holidays

Our small group wildlife and nature holidays don’t do things by halves. Not only do you get thrown into some of the world’s most spectacular natural landscapes and biodiverse areas, but you do so with a fabulous group, too. Following the advice of an amazing guide, you’ll spot scores of birds, hide in wildlife hides, or trek to follow the tracks of elusive megafauna. Blue whales in the Azores, lemurs in Madagascar or trekking in Chitwan National Park in Nepal; these are just a few ideas to whet your appetite. The rest of your adventure is up to you.

Our small group wildlife & nature holidays

Why go on a small group wildlife & nature holiday

No one tells you how moving seeing animals in the wild can be – or what an amazing experience it can be sharing it with new-found friends. Going in a small group can keep costs down as you’re sharing the expense of a driver and leader, and having a group can give you a bit more reassurance in more remote destinations. At the heart of all our small group wildlife tours are great guides – they are the key members of the group, leading you all to the best wildlife-spotting spots, the most beautiful, secluded nature, and helping peel back the layers – or peer through the foliage – in a destination to show you its secret heart.

Where to go on a small group wildlife & nature holiday

Our small group wildlife trips are great for destinations that might be harder to reach solo, either because they are expensive, or tricky and time consuming to navigate without help. Our small group wildlife holidays to Madagascar are a great way to see the land of lemurs with the assistance of a great guide and dedicated transport. Our small group trips to Botswana can keep costs down with participatory camping and the use of an overland vehicle. Diverse destinations like India and Costa Rica are places where you can benefit from a few extra pairs of eyes in the group to help spot those elusive forest birds.

Joining a small group safari

Join the pack on our small group safaris, share stories around the campfire and pinch great pictures of that one person who brought lots of different lenses along. At their most epic, our small group safaris might involve overland adventures by van, seeing several countries and multiple national parks over a few weeks, or they might take you to the best private reserves in great safari destinations in South Africa, Tanzania, Kenya, Zimbabwe and Zambia. Going in a small group can be a great way to keep costs down, all whilst giving you once in a lifetime wildlife encounters.

Absolutely excellent. Don't hesitate, just go. Fantastic trip - excellent itinerary highlight after highlight with the most memorable parts: camping in the Okavango Delta - with ensuite chemical toilet (which was great, especially when elephants were around us very peacefully in the night). Tented accommodation, Elephant Pools Camp by the Moremi game reserve, exclusively for our group in a fantastic set up and with outstanding food and service, I wouldn't have dreamed of in the bush - great wildlife...read more
