Its geological and evolutionary history, landscapes and extraordinary wildlife make this beautiful volcanic archipelago unlike anywhere else on the planet. These ‘Enchanted Isles’, where Charles Darwin developed his ground-breaking theory of evolution, are home to prehistoric-looking Land and Marine Iguanas and Giant Tortoises, as well as a host of endemic birds and other wildlife.
Operations Manager Alison Steel visited Papua New Guinea in April. In this article she describes her encounters with the wonderful birds-of-paradise and other wildlife of this far-flung destination.
Once again we look forward to seeing as many of you as possible at our stand at the annual British Birdwatching Fair! The British Birdwatching Fair is co-sponsored by Naturetrek and held at Rutland Water from Friday 17th to Sunday 19th August (inclusive). We also invite you to join us for a drink and nibbles on Saturday 18th August at 4.30pm.
Our Naturetrek Tailormade team loves nothing more than planning unique and exciting wildlife holidays for our guests. Perhaps most of all, we love the diversity of the holidays that we create, as well as the diversity of those we create them for. We know that each new enquiry brings its own suite of specific requirements and needs, which can vary from a family’s wish to have a swimming pool at each hotel, to a disabled person’s need for accessible rooms and vehicles.
