Holidays '... for birders'
All our tours are for birders of course, though we offer several itineraries where we concentrate particularly on species which can take your list to new heights, and designate these as '... for Birders’. Some are based at Mountview Hotel, others are based on remote Scottish islands, wonderful for wind-blown rarities and sometimes ‘mega’ birds, perhaps never before or very rarely seen in the UK. We also have overseas tours which maximise your birdlist, and designate some of these as '... for Birders' too. Read more here.
