wildlife tours

Animal-watching guided trips

Wildlife tours are guided excursions to observe animals in their natural habitats.

They range from African safaris to whale-watching trips to birdwatching expeditions.

The appeal lies in seeing creatures outside zoos or aquariums: We booked a wildlife tour to see the elephants in Kenya.

Tours may be on foot, by vehicle, or by boat, often led by naturalists who explain animal behavior and ecology.
