HEATHERLEA GUIDES

In Scotland, we think you will see far more with a Heatherlea guide/leader than under your own steam, and of course you can relax and enjoy yourself. From briefing on the first evening to round-up on the last, your guide plans the entire holiday, organising everything to suit wildlife, weather and your birding progress. Skilled birders and real ‘people people’, our guides have been birding and leading in Scotland for many years, and our in-house knowledge is unbeatable; your guide knows where the birds have been showing, and the best route to maximise your chances. Great personal care from our team earns us five stars from VisitScotland, the highest available rating, designated as ‘Exceptional’. Come and see how our guides make the difference! 

Overseas, we have a reputation for being ‘less-intensive’, during itineraries planned carefully so you see memorable wildlife, whilst enjoying relaxed, informal days that are great fun. Our holidays are not ‘dawn to dusk’ expeditions, and each is run for guests who we consider friends as well as clients. That means rewarding and exciting days in the field with capable guide/leaders who really look after you, and good quality accommodation and meals, with a real flavour of the country we are visiting. We also employ the very best local agents, and use home-grown guides in many countries to make sure our birding and overall experience is the best we can achieve.
