We are visiting one of the remotest areas of Spain, the 'Sierra de Culebra'. Our primary objective will be to locate one of Europe's rarest mammals - Iberian Wolf, and this reserve holds a major percentage of Spain's total population of 2500 - 3000 individuals.  However while we are there we should be also be looking to find Wild Boar, Fox, Red & Roe Deer The rest of the time will be spent visiting the surrounding areas, especially Villafafila and it's adjacent low-intensive agricultural lands that has Spain's largest concentration of Great Bustard. The Rio Duero forms the border between Spain & Portugal as it carves a winding course through steep sided valleys, home to many breeding raptor species.
In summary this tour will provide ample time in which to enjoy the rich wildlife of the area, but it is our quest for the Iberian Wolf that will be our ultimate goal. Our accommodation is in the heart of the sierra and perfectly positioned for easy access to the best wolf watching areas, and not only is it a fantastic place to stay but the owner has worked very closely with the local rangers and has up-to-the-minute information on the wolves and their where-abouts.

Set in the heart of Kipling’s India, Bandhavgarh is truly the best place for seeing one of the most endangered cats on the planet, the Royal Bengal Tiger. Mythology has it that Bandhavgarh was gifted to Laxman by his elder brother Lord Ram, the legendary hero of Ramayan, thus named "Bandhu-garh" meaning brother's fort. A beautiful combination of hills and meadows, dominated by the sheer massif of the Bandhavgarh plateau, the park provides one of the best, unspoilt environments for tigers in the world. You will have ten days exploring here by means of open jeep and elephant. Of the five ranges in the park, the 105 km2 Tala range will be the focal point of the tour.

The green season months are some of the most exciting and interesting with spectacular wildlife and the most exciting for birding in Zambia. All of the migrants are present and many local birds are in full breeding plumage and singing. Over 400 species of birds have been recorded in South Luangwa National Park. The early season is a peak for births and when Wild dogs are most likely to appear.

The Emerald Season is so called due to the extraordinary colour of the bush once the rain starts to fall. This is without doubt a very special time to be on safari. Mamals and birds are abundant and it is the peak visiting time for migrant species and when many large mammals give birth.

We have several great ideas for this time, combining some of Zambias best known lodges with thier remote bush camps. And it is even possible to extend your Green season safari to include the Lower Zambezi.

This tour gives you the chance of seeing three of the Subcontinent’s magnificent big cats on one memorable journey. This tour begins in the Gir National Park in Gujarat, the last home of the Asiatic lion, before moving to Bandhavgarh to search for the Royal Bengal Tiger. Finally, journey south to look for leopard in Pench.  In addition to the big cats, the parks are a haven for birds and many other species of wildlife. Though wildlife viewing can never be guaranteed, from our own experiences in these parks we would be very surprised if you did not have sightings of all three of the big cats.

This safari blends three of southern Africa’s most fruitful game areas - Hwange National Park and Mana Pools National Park in Zimbabwe, with the vast Kafue National Park in the west of Zambia. Located within the largest game reserve in Zimbabwe, Hwange National Park is ecologically diverse resulting in large numbers of animals all year round, including a multitude of elephant. Mana Pools National Park is in the heart of the Zambezi Valley and with the variety of habitat ranging from woodland to floodplain to the mountains of the Rift Valley escarpment, abundant wildlife and bird sightings are consistently enjoyed. The seasonally-inundated grasslands with tree-islands on the Busanga Plains offer concentrations of plains game as well as rarer antelope (including roan and oribi) and a high density of lion. Last but not least, a visit to the mighty Victoria Falls - one of the Seven Natural Wonders of the World – is a fitting end.
