"There's No Business to Be Done on a Dead Planet."
- David Brower

Dear Friends,

Have you ever had someone or some company try to sell you something that you just know isn’t right for you? Well, I’ll be 100% honest with you: Our trips are NOT FOR EVERYONE!

If your idea of the perfect vacation is witnessing the bright lights of Vegas, seeing Europe from the seat of a motor coach, or sitting in a lounge chair aboard a massive cruise ship, then, quite frankly, what we offer is probably not right for you.

Don’t get me wrong; there is no right or wrong way to take a vacation. Some of my closest friends are “cruisers” or “Vegas guys.” They know what they enjoy, and I say more power to them.

But if you’re like me, and your vacation dreams include standing among 300 million monarch butterflies in remote sanctuaries high in the mountains of central Mexico, or snorkeling with frolicsome sea lions in the Galapagos Islands, or walking among 100,000 noisy, waddling king penguins on a frozen Antarctic island, then I think you’re going to enjoy our newest 225-page catalog. It’s full of dozens of exciting nature expeditions, each one uniquely designed to offer you personal encounters with the natural world that are far from standard tourist fare.

For 2008, our new trips include Brazil’s Pantanal, the world’s largest wetlands with a mind-boggling host of wildlife, such as the hyacinth macaw, maned wolf and threatened jaguar; a safari in search of India’s wild treasures, including tigers and elephants; and a Galapagos and Andes combo trip that is sure to thrill all.

So this year, ask yourself what kind of travel you’re passionate about. If your answer includes the word “nature,” then consider a trip with Natural Habitat Adventures - the “Nature People.”

I hope to see you out there!
