Tour Pace & Walking

MODERATE TO CHALLENGING: This tour requires a good level of fitness, stamina, and overall health. It’s best suited for experienced birders who are comfortable with a more active itinerary. Please note that it may not be ideal for avid photographers, new birders, or those with mobility or health concerns.

Moderate. Suitable for most birding / wildlife interest levels but not suitable for anyone with mobility challenges. Our Mega tours are very fast-paced birding adventures designed for the dedicated lister and serious birder. The focus of the tour is to see as many of the endemics and area specials as possible in our given time. In order to cover the necessary route to maximise the species list we tend to spend a single night at most sites and travel large distances. There is very little down time aside from that spent driving from one site to the next. These tours are not suitable for dedicated or avid photographers; inexperienced or new birders; as well as anyone with serious mobility or health challenges.

Accommodation

Lodges and guesthouses mostly of a simple to good standard.

Ease of Birding

Main target species are expected to provide good visuals. Birding and wildlife watching is from roadside, forest edge, flattish trails, and gardens. Some difficult skulking species.

Photographic Opportunities

Reasonable to good. Some dedicated hides & feeding stations.
