ORKNEY WILDLIFE & ARCHAEOLOGY TOUR

Date/Time
Date(s) - 16/06/2018 - 23/06/2018
12:00 am


After 15 years of operation in Orkney, our wildlife and culture tours have been finely honed to blend Orkney’s natural history with its Neolithic, Pictish and Viking sites. The good news is that all the archaeological sites are in stunning natural settings, and one is even an RSPB nature reserve! Imagine the sounds of skylarks, curlews and lapwings as you’re wandering around the Ring of Brodgar. Expect to see seabirds such as puffins and gannets; and raptors such as our speciality bird, the hen harrier. Three islands are visited: Hoy, South Ronaldsay and Westray, and two days are spent on the Orkney Mainland. A ‘free day’ enables you to visit Kirkwall, and its cathedral and museum, or else wander around your hotel looking for the most northerly little tern colony in the UK and other special birds and plants. Accommodation is provided by the 4* Sands Hotel in Burray (www.thesandshotel.co.uk), and transport is by means of our 9 seater minibus. Tour size is usually restricted to a maximum of 6 so that you are guaranteed lots of individual attention. THIS TOUR IS NOW FULL. Cost £1,395.
