New Zealand South Island Wildlife & Wilderness

15-Day Accommodated Tour – Departs Nelson 7 January 2025 – Max 12 participants

Discover New Zealand’s South Island (Te Wai Pounamu), through the eyes of a local New Zealand Naturalist on our 15-day wildlife and wilderness tour. We will venture away from the crowded tourist sites to where nature remains beautiful and untouched, and wildlife have not been frightened away. One day you’re high in a majestic mountain valley viewing giant buttercups, and the next, you’re hiking in sub-Antarctic rainforest, or viewing Dusky Dolphins and Sperm Whales at sea.

Botswana Wildlife Safari

10-Day Accommodated Safari Tour – Departs Maun 22 March 2025 – Max 12 participants

We travel to Botswana during the green season, when the land transforms from a dry winter landscape into a vibrant lush wonderland. Salt pans become shimmering wetlands teeming with waterbirds, and offspring born in November and December will be young and playful. We stay in traditional safari accommodation (tented camps and lodges), nestled in Botswana’s remote reserves to ensure an authentic safari experience, and will be led by local Naturalist guides.

Bhutan – The Last Shangri-La

Bhutan is a fiercely independent Himalayan kingdom offering exquisite scenery, rich traditions and pristine environments. Home to snow leopards, blue sheep, red pandas, Asian elephants and tigers, Bhutan’s environment is rigorously protected, and mass tourism is avoided to preserve the unique natural heritage. This country is also one of the last strongholds of Tibetan Buddhism, and a visit to the magnificent Taktsang Monastery (the Tiger’s Nest) near Paro is a highlight of the tour.
