Overview

From their inception, their tours have emphasized the enjoyment of the natural world. All tours offer tremendous learning opportunities. Leaders are skilled teachers. Over the years, their tour program has become diversified. Victor Emanuel Nature Tours now offers a complete range of birding and natural history travel opportunities. As a result, Victor Emanuel Nature Tours feels that whatever your interest in birds and nature, they have a tour that will fit your desires perfectly.

Birding tours are ideal for people who want to see as many birds as possible at a given destination. They are led by some of the most highly regarded experts in ornithology. Victor Emanuel Nature Tours leaders have written or are writing books about the birds of Venezuela, Ecuador, Panama, Peru, Brazil, Indonesia, and Columbia.

Victor Emanuel Nature Tours leaders have years of experience in the countries where they lead tours. They are superb at finding birds and showing them to others. They are eager to share their knowledge and enthusiasm. You will see as many or more birds on regular birding trips as on any other birding tour. Their birding tours are appropriate for both experienced and new birders.

Natural history tours have a broader focus, encompassing more aspects of the natural world. Some focus on birds and butterflies, while others combine birding, natural history, and human history. Others focus mainly on one natural phenomenon such as the remarkable gathering of polar bears on shores of Hudson Bay in late October.

Wilderness tours are designed for those who would like to experience some of the wildest areas on this planet, and who are willing to undergo the conditions and physical effort that such a trip entails. These tours offer superb birding and natural history experiences. Among them is Victor Emanuel Nature Tours’ favorite trip, El Triunfo, a hiking trip to a beautiful cloud forest in southern Mexico. They have operated this tour for 30 years.

Introductory birding tours are designed for people who are new to birding and would like to increase their skills. The Relaxed and Easy tours are perfect for those who desire a slower paced tour that involves less physical activity.

Cruises are the best and, in some cases, the only way to visit some of the most alluring and pristine areas in the world, such as Antarctica. Victor Emanuel Nature Tours has been operating cruises for over a decade. They are expert at selecting the best ships and customizing itineraries to increase the birding and natural history opportunities. These cruises are ideal for those who are mainly interested in birds, as well as for those interested in other aspects of natural history and human history. Cruises are also ideal for non-birding spouses, with lectures and options offered covering a broad range of interests. This year, for the first time, Victor Emanuel Nature Tours has published a separate catalog about their cruise program.

Since their inception, Victor Emanuel Nature Tours has been committed to conservation. They operate special departures for the Cornell Laboratory of Ornithology and for the American Bird Conservancy, two of the groups that Victor Emanuel Nature Tours feels are doing the most to help conserve birds and their habitats.

Victor Emanuel Nature Tours features a wide variety of tours. Please check their website for a full schedule.
