All our tours are tailored to your requests, so please contact us with your species wishlist.

What about transport?

Our tours make use of Edinburgh's excellent public transport and private hire systems.

Transport between the arranged start- and end-point of the tour is included in your quote.

Is food and drink included as part of the tour?

We don't provide food and drink ourselves, but we'll pass plenty of cafes and shops as part of the tour. Since looking for wildlife can be thirsty work, we recommend that all guests bring at least one bottle of water each.

What is your cancellation policy?

Individual guests can cancel up to 60 days before the tour date. After this time, their fee must be paid in full.

A full cancellation policy is provided on booking.

What is your ethical policy?

Edinburgh Birding and Naturre Tours is commited to ethical ecotourism. Each of our tours is founded upon respect for the natural world.
