Orcadian Wildlife is pleased to offer a new tour for 2022: Bulgaria & Romania – two Balkan states where west meets east. We meet and begin in the Bulgarian capital, Sofia, then continue eastwards into the Rhodopes Mountains and onwards to the Black Sea Coast. We then travel further north and east into Romania, for 3 nights on the Danube (Danarii) delta, followed by two nights in the Carpathian mountains of Transylvania, ending our tour in the Romanian capital, Bucharest.

The birds and mammals on this tour will feature some totemic species, including Lesser-spotted eagles, Red-footed falcons and Egyptian vultures; or else wetland birds such as Dalmatian & White Pelicans and Collared Pratincoles.

Raptors and wetland birds will feature prominently, and we also take care to absorb the culture of this fascinating countries, visiting ancient mountain and delta villages. Accommodation is either in modern hotels, or traditional family-owned villas with thatched rooves. We will be using knowledgeable local guides in association with our partners in Bulgaria: Wild Echo; and in Romania Absolute Carpathian.

Expect to see 150+ species of birds, Brown Bears, and as rich a biodiversity as you will find anywhere in Europe. Spring in Eastern Europe is beautiful! For pictures see:
