While on one of our adventures, you can literally trip over the wildlife if you're not paying attention! However, we can all use a little advice on spotting those elusive or skittish species. Having a great guide during your travels is always key, but here are a few other helpful tips to practice when on your wildlife adventure.
1. Get up early -- turn in late. Dawn and dusk are when wildlife tend to be the most active, thus offering the best chances to spot your favorite wildlife creatures.
2. Know what to expect & where to look. Understand the seasonal patterns of wildlife. Many species only appear seasonally in certain regions. Learning a little about wildlife habitat, feeding habits, and favorite foods can also help focus your search.
3. Move slowly and keep quiet. The best way to increase your chances of spotting wildlife is to stop periodically and wait ... quietly.
4. Remember your binoculars. Binoculars provide the chance to enjoy an up-close wildlife experience at a safe distance.
5. Be patient and persistent. And remember, even if you don't spot the species you've been aching to see, enjoy the variety of other wildlife that cross your path during the pursuit.
Our team is waiting and ready to talk with you about your next adventure.
So go ahead and book an appointment with one of our specialized trip planners.
We have worked with Kassandra at Adventure-Life for several years. She continues to provide excellent guidance on our trips. This time, we tossed some real challenges - explicit number of days, specific itineraries and limitations on who we would prefer to sail with. She actually gave us choices ! Deposit in place and working on additional details for insurance and extensions. Another success !!

Its a beautiful country, very friendly people, and everything went like clockwork. The local guide/driver was one of the best we've had: knowledgeable, always on time, had good ideas for what to see. Khiri Travel (the local travel agency) is terrific. Second trip we've taken with them. Recommend them and Adventure Life 100%

Adventure Life organized an incredible trip matching our desired itinerary, with perfect planning and coordination from end to end, including a hand-off of guides and drivers across an international land border. I highly recommend their services.
