Welcome to Honeyguide

I'm delighted you've decided to visit the website of Honeyguide Wildlife Holidays. If you are looking for a quality natural history holiday, this is a great place to start.

It’s the 20th season of Honeyguide Wildlife Holidays. Twenty years: it seems hardly possible!

Hoopoe - often a highlight on Menorca

For anyone new to Honeyguide, we suggest one of our regular destinations. Menorca has all round charm and Bulgaria offers great birdwatching in its mix of wildlife – including those sometimes elusive wallcreepers. There are good birds in the Dordogne and Cévennes but these are perhaps better known for their flowers and butterflies. The food is a great feature on both of these French holidays too.

But as we are near to being fully booked for 2010, including our new holidays in Poland and Central Portugal, it's worth checking our calendar page here to check which holidays still have a space or spaces. Better still, contact the Honeyguide office.

Holidays give the typical flights we use, but increasingly we arrange flights from airports near to where you live, or help with other arrangements. Carbon offsets are as usual part of each holiday’s price.

The Honeyguide Wildlife Charitable Trust goes from strength to strength. We are pleased to report that in 2009 we have already donated £7,783 to conservation projects linked to our holidays, bringing our running total to £61,363 since 1991. Through the Honeyguide charity, the taxman tops up our contributions of £35 per person on every holiday in 2010. This all helps our kind of tourism punch above its weight on behalf of wildlife.

Group bookings mean that the Danube Delta drops out of the 2010 programme, but Crete returns. We are pleased to help with group holidays – even a holiday for half a dozen friends.

Rules about selling travel insurance mean if you want Honeyguide’s insurance you need to go straight to our broker rather than buying a policy directly from Honeyguide. Details are on our booking page and there is also help here on booking parking and hotels at airports.

I hope you’ll want to find out more by exploring this website further. If you would like a Honeyguide Wildlife Holidays brochure for 2010, please click on ‘contact us’.
