Spring & Summer
Spring and Summer in Europe
Vast oceans, temperate seas, dense forests, river deltas, and mountain strongholds - are all home to a rich flora and fauna. The diversity of Europe is reflected in our itineraries, and a new awareness of the preservation of nature in many European destinations has created some of the best wildlife-viewing opportunities to be had anywhere.
European seas provide some of the world's best whale and dolphin watching. Large numbers of Orcas gather for the winter Herring shoals in northern Norway, and the clear waters of the Azores provide a breeding ground for Sperm Whales although numerous other species can be seen including Fin, Blue and Orca Whales. Iceland, the land of fire and ice, is a prime location for Humpback, and Minke Whales, dolphins, puffins and other seabirds.
Inland, the remote mountains of central Europe are still home to half Europe's Brown Bear population and a third of its Wolf and Lynx populations. Further north in the icy sub-arctic regions you can experience a different and fascinating way of life alongside the native peoples and see how they co-exist with the wildlife around them on a dog-sledding or reindeer adventure. As you will see, our trips in Europe reflect the seasonal migration and habits of the animals and birds - and the best times for sightings.
