Christmas and Cocos Island 11-Day Accommodated Tour – Departs Perth 5 December 2023 – Max 12 participants Two totally different islands, both are naturalist’s wonderlands. Christmas island an extinct limestone, caped volcano, rugged shoreline and rain-forested terraces and the central plateau, Cocos Islands are palm fringed, sandy beaches, more like we think a tropical island paradise should be. The bird, plant and marine life on both islands are plentiful with a number of endemic species of plant and birdlife. We have set the timing of the trip to hopefully coincide with Red Crab migration, a truly amazing sight. |

In 2024, Coates will be running two tours to New Zealand and for the first time one will be touring the North Island. On our North Island tour we search for the finest forests amidst dramatic landscapes. From the beech forests to the ever-changing podocarp forests of the volcanic plateau, we study the intricacies of the forests, their birdlife and the landscapes on which they sit. We have also updated our South Island tour for 2024 |
Sri Lankan Wildlife, History & Culture Tour 2024 15-Day Accommodated Tour – Departs Colombo 12 March 2024 – Maximum of 12 participants Sri Lanka is home to wild elephant herds, leopards, sloth bears, Asiatic buffalo, numerous monkey species and beautiful birdlife. The island features diverse habitats and plant life, as well as magnificent scenery and historic fortresses, temples, and monasteries.
