Birding Holidays
All our birding tours, wildlife holidays and safaris all over the world are listed below:
As far as watching a group of beautiful, colourful, intriguing and inspiring animals goes birds are very often top of the list and as many people all over world travel to find more and more exotic and rare birds Royle Safaris is at the very top when it comes to helping birders find the more impressive species. But in addition to the experienced birders who often know exactly what they want to find we specialise in beginners holidays, for people who know they love watching eagles soar majestically through the blue skies and parrots eating all the fruit in sight as well as having penguins waddle around in between their legs, but they may not know exactly what moult that particular shearwater is in or they might not be able to tell you the age, sex and maturity of a black-backed puffback at 100 feet!
Whatever your birding experience or knowledge Royle Safaris has the birding holidays for you; all our tours are escorted by an experienced zoologist and as a result give you a great wealth of knowledge when exploring the habitats we visit, we also use the very best local guides where needed for the special endemic species which often require years of training to find. But most of our birding holidays offer more than just the average birding tour, we also focus on other groups of animals such as mammals, reptiles and invertebrates; this gives a fully rounded and comprehensive holiday full of wildlife observation and sightings.
But if you would like a dedicated birding holiday to a destination not listed below please use or tailor made tours page and give us as much info about your dream birding holiday and we will suggest a itinerary for your next escorted birding holiday.
All these tours are available on other dates (subject to availability) than the dates listed. Please contact us to arrange a tour on a date which suits you.
