We are pleased to present our range of botanical holidays, with a particular focus on the rich flora of the areas visited. All are led by knowledgeable, friendly, and enthusiastic botanist guides, including Paul Harcourt Davies, Sean Cole, Mike Waller, Chris Gibson, James Common, Frank Gaude, and Sotiris Alexiou.
We’re proud to be a corporate supporter & the very first tour operator to support the Botanical Society of Britain & Ireland (BSBI) and donate 10% of profits from our botanically focused holidays. We also support them in other ways, such as donating a place on one of our botanical holidays as a fundraising lottery prize.
Therefore, by joining one of these trips you are also helping to advance the study, understanding and enjoyment of wild plants and support their conservation.
