The NHA Difference

The World's Greatest Nature Adventures Since 1985



Choosing your travel company is the single most important decision you will make as you plan your long-anticipated adventure. At first glance some other companies may seem 'cheaper.' But when you dig a little deeper, you’ll see why traveling with Natural Habitat Adventures ensures the finest comprehensive travel experience possible. We guarantee it!

  • Natural Habitat Named "The World’s #1 Adventure Travel Outfitter!"
    While Outside magazine named us The World's #1 Adventure Travel Outfitter, it might be more accurate to call us The World’s #1 Nature Travel Outfitter. Unlike other companies, the only trips we run—the only trips we have ever run—are nature adventures, which is important when you're choosing a nature-focused journey. After all, do you really want to visit Africa with an operator known for its European cultural tours? Or explore Alaska with a company more interested in sheet thread count than animal viewing count? When it comes to travel, we are ‘The Nature People' —the world's nature travel experts! And apparently, Outside magazine agrees.
  • Unique & Distinctive Itineraries 
    With World Wildlife Fund's top scientists and staff by our side in the planning process, and with years of experience scouring the planet for the world's most captivating nature destinations, we possess resources and insight not available to other tour companies. Look at our itineraries and you’ll see that they include private wildlife reserves, remote corners of national parks (away from tourist crowds), and distinctive lodges and camps situated where wildlife viewing is best — all in our quest to offer the world’s greatest nature adventures!
  • Nature Adventures Are Only as Good as Your Guide
    Despite all the intricate planning that goes into creating a superlative nature adventure, we know a successful trip can only materialize with an extraordinary guide at the helm. That’s why we're proud to have earned the reputation for the finest collection of naturalist Expedition Leaders on the planet! No other company undertakes as rigorous a vetting process and in-depth guide training as we do. In addition, when you include instruction and resources from World Wildlife Fund's team of scientists — exclusively available to Nat Hab as WWF’s travel partner — we can safely make the claim that Natural Habitat Adventures has the best guides in the business… It’s part of our guarantee!
  • The Smallest Groups in the Industry
    Can you imagine trying to walk silently along a secluded rainforest trail, careful not to disturb wildlife, with 20 or 30 other travelers? Or stepping ashore on a remote island to explore pristine coastal wilderness with dozens of other tourists at your side? We know that meaningful nature encounters simply must take place in small groups. That's why our trips average just eight or nine travelers, by far the smallest groups in the industry. This not only guarantees you much more personal close-up wildlife encounters, it also ensures a lower-impact presence on the planet's special places we all love. 
  • Remote Luxury Accommodations
    Most companies that sell nature travel choose large hotels and lodges often overrun with hordes of tourists. In contrast, Natural Habitat recognizes that superb nature adventures require the quiet and seclusion of remotely located luxury camps and lodges. Yes, these strategically placed accommodations often cost a bit more, and getting there can be a little more involved (though often more fun!). But such lodgings are a key part of our mission to offer the world’s greatest nature adventures.
  • The Best Vehicles
    As a company that covers the entire planet, we use many different types of vehicles, from small 4x4 trucks to view tigers in India to massive Polar Rovers custom-designed for polar bear viewing on the Canadian tundra. The one consistent element is that our vehicles are always the best available, providing the safest and most comfortable ride with the best access for viewing wildlife. Further, with our uncompromising small-group policy, we also limit the number of travelers in each vehicle to well below capacity (and well below the number other companies place in them), ensuring a more comfortable and more personalized nature experience. 
  • Specialty Trips for Special Traveler Interests
    When selecting a travel company, choosing one that shares your passion is key. All of our trips are centered on nature, that’s for certain. But within nature travel, many of our trips focus on special activities that align even further with individual interests. Along with Natural Habitat Adventures, we offer Natural Habitat Photo Tours, led by some of the world’s best nature photography instructors and naturalist guides; Natural Habitat Expeditions, a slate of highly active hiking and kayaking adventures; and Natural Habitat Safaris, our own Africa-based operation including permanent and mobile safari camps. These three specialized divisions of Nat Hab offer our guests more ways to 'go deeper’ in their nature-based vacations. (And don’t forget Nat Hab Foundation, our non-profit arm. We’re all about giving back!)
  • A Full Air Travel Department for Increased Peace of Mind
    Most adventure travel operators require guests to book their own airfare, offering little guidance (and no service) in negotiating the complicated web of flight options in traveling to the world’s farthest reaches. Since we well know that many of these options can result in the types of travel stories one would rather forget, we have a full-service Air Travel Department available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, for consultations and bookings. This is part of our commitment to your peace of mind.
  • Our Exclusive Quality & Value Guarantee
    When you travel with Natural Habitat Adventures, you receive our exclusive Quality & Value Guarantee, which clearly states that we will meet (and usually exceed) the lofty expectations we set in our promotional materials. While this may be the most ambitious guarantee made by any adventure travel company, we have so much confidence and pride in our trips that we simply will not allow our guests to return home disappointed in our services.
  • We Won’t Cancel
    If you've ever experienced the disappointment of having your long-awaited adventure cancelled at the last minute because the tour company didn’t sell enough spaces, you’ll appreciate our promise never to cancel a trip due to low enrollment. That’s right — every one of our scheduled departures is guaranteed to run — if you sign on, we’re going! This guarantee applies to all regularly scheduled Natural Habitat Adventures, Natural Habitat Expeditions and Natural Habitat Photo Tours departures.
  • Natural Habitat is 100% Carbon-Neutral
    We know our guests care deeply about our planet. So do we, and when you travel with us, we will offset 100 percent of the carbon emissions from your trip. But we’re not just pursuing a trend here. In an effort to change the way the entire travel business operates, Natural Habitat Adventures in 2007 became the world’s first carbon-neutral travel company. Since then, many other companies have followed our lead, and we are proud to have helped many along. Even if you do not select Natural Habitat for your trip, we encourage you to choose a 100-percent carbon-neutral travel company.
  • Natural Habitat Adventures is WWF's Travel Partner
    Because of our commitment to environmentally friendly travel, as well as the exceptional quality of our worldwide adventures, World Wildlife Fund has named Natural Habitat as its worldwide travel partner. It’s not every day that the world's leading environmental conservation organization gives a small company like Nat Hab such a prestigious designation. But we’ll graciously accept it.

    Photographer Michael Poliza

    A Lifetime Behind the Lens and In Front of the Animals


    After an extensive career in German television and film, plus a business in the IT sector, photographer Michael Poliza began focusing on digital media in 1997. His adventures led him to turn his attention to the game reserves and nature parks of southern Africa. Thanks to a friendship with Wilderness Safaris, he had freedom of access in return for the use of his images – a truly symbiotic relationship that saw the development of a significant body of wildlife and landscape imagery. The resultant book, Africa, was launched to massive acclaim in 2006.

    Since then, he has continued to photograph some of the most breathtaking views of nature, including the beauty and fragility of polar life in his coffee table book Antarctic, and aerial views of the entire African continent and its wildlife in Eyes Over Africa.  In December 2009 he was named as an ambassador of the World Wildlife Fund (WWF).

    How Mexico is Protecting Monarchs from Unsustainable Logging

    Every year, monarch butterflies take one of the most amazing migrations on Earth. Fluttering between 1,200 to 2,800 miles over the course of two months, they leave their summer breeding areas in Canada and the United States to return to hibernation colonies in the forests of central Mexico.

    These same forests are inhabited and managed by agrarian communities. Local landownership is divided between ejidos (communal forestry and agriculture endeavors), indigenous communities, and small property owners. As the communities struggle with widespread poverty and lack of employment opportunity, they lean heavily on the forest and its resources for survival—the same forests in which the monarchs congregate.

    To protect the area from unsustainable logging that threatens the butterflies’ unique habitat, the Mexican government took action. The Monarch Butterfly Biosphere Reserve was established, and later expanded with WWF support.

    To assist local communities in keeping the forest intact, WWF helps establish alternative income-generating ventures—including sustainable mushroom and tree nurseries.

    Today, nine mushroom nurseries provide protein to local households and income from sales. Mushroom producers have access to seeds, bio-material, and training with financial support from the Mexican government and WWF, and participation of local scientists. They learn cultivation techniques, administration processes, and how to manage the facilities’ equipment.

    At the same time, 10 tree nurseries now produce around 1.5 million native trees every year for reforestation of local areas, with income supporting many full- and part-time jobs. WWF forest engineers help with the work of growing trees—including seed planting, bagging and plant location, installing irrigation systems, and managing administrative tasks.

    For the communities involved in these endeavors there is a new appreciation of the forest they call home—and a change of conscience about how to use the forest in a sustainable way. Sustainable forest management can ensure their communities’ continued wellbeing—as well as the winter habitat of the butterflies that make their area so unique.

    “It’s not only protecting the monarchs, it’s not only protecting the forest, but it’s helping the local communities develop in an economic and social way. Without their participation, without their commitment, we cannot move forward,” says Eduardo Rendón-Salinas, head of WWF-Mexico’s Monarch Butterfly Program.

    Measures Taken to Prevent Illegal Trading and Killing of Great Apes

    Governments at the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species (CITES) agreed to develop a comprehensive reporting mechanism on the illegal killing and trade of great apes.

    According to the United Nations Great Apes Survival Partnership (GRASP) Stolen Apes report, launched at the CITES meeting, 22,218 great apes were taken from the wild between 2005 and 2011 to be traded illegally on international markets, primarily for the pet trade.

    WWF believes that the real number of apes killed and traded is double or even triple this figure, due to the larger, more influential and significant bushmeat trade. Especially in Central Africa, ape meat is still a sought after commodity for mid-high level socio-political functions.

    Measures needed to ensure the conservation of African great apes include implementation of existing legislation, strengthened enforcement controls including anti-poaching measures, market survey and control, and anti-smuggling measures at international borders, meanwhile eliminating the widespread corruption which blocks the legal system and facilitates illegal trade.

    Although there are recent exceptions, range state governments do not regularly reinforce the ongoing work of anti-poaching teams. According to WWF, well patrolled protected areas, with demonstrated cases of imprisonment of illegal wildlife traders, offers the best chance of securing African great apes in the wild.

    Most of the apes captured for the pet trade are infants, the preferred bounty for poachers. But adult apes are not willingly letting their young go, and often defend their families to the death.

    Great ape populations in Africa often share their habitat with civil wars, illegal logging and the expansion of agriculture and other industrial activities which threaten their habitat. Conservation efforts are also threatened by highly infectious diseases which can kill vast numbers of great apes in single outbreaks.

    TRAFFIC, the wildlife trade monitoring network, has supported work to mitigate the effect of illegal meat trade on apes in Central Africa.

    “Illegal domestic and international trade in great apes and their parts continues to have a strong detrimental effect on the survival of wild orangutans, gorillas and chimpanzees,” said Roland Melisch, TRAFFIC’s Director for Africa and Europe.

  • WWF in Action: Whale Sharks
    #WWFinaction_ws

    WWF in Action: Whale Sharks

    Swimming with Sharks, Lessening the Impacts

    Gentle giants. That’s what pops into my head each time I think about being in the water, swimming alongside a whale shark. The first time I did it, it was the experience of a lifetime: Swimming six feet away from one of these gargantuan creatures, looking directly into his eye, kicking with all my might to keep up with him as he skimmed the surface of the plankton-rich water with his mouth wide open.

    I’m not sure what it is about being so near a creature so large; on the one hand, thrilling, and on the other hand, a palpable sense of calm. When I returned this past summer, I had the chance to swim with a “youngster” – only about 15 feet long; much easier to keep up with. We also had the special treat of spotting several large schools of golden rays, glittering as the sun bounced off them on the swells

    WWF got involved with the small fishing community of Holbox on the northern coast of the Yucutan Peninsula about five years ago when the region began its transformation from a shark-fishing village to a premier whale shark watching destination. When the shark fisheries began to decline, the fishermen started taking tourists out to see the whale sharks and asked WWF for help developing a code of conduct for the swim-with-a-whale outings. Some of the guides were letting people ride the sharks and—no surprise—the sharks were making themselves scarce.

    With the help of experts—and from learning about whale shark watching experiences in Belize, Honduras and Australia—the fishermen drew up a list of practices that would constitute a high-quality experience for the guests with less impact on the sharks.

    At issue now is the competition from less conscientious operators from Cancún and beyond. WWF conducted an analysis of the business model used by the local operators, with the goal of keeping the shark-watching business healthy as an incentive for protecting the whale sharks and their habitat. We’re also interested in learning more about the whale sharks’ habits, and so we’ve been working closely with Mexico’s National Park agency and have provided funding for satellite tags to track the movements of the sharks, which will help identify habitat in need of additional protection. Two of the sharks are now outfitted with the tags and the researchers have begun tracking them.

  • WWF in Action: Galapagos Islands
    #WWFinaction_gi

    WWF in Action: Galapagos Islands

    Working to Protect the Galapagos Islands

    If you landed in the Galapagos Islands a century or two ago, you would see giant tortoises lumbering across grassy fields, marine iguanas by the hundreds sprawled on rocks and sea lions cooling off at the water’s edge.

    It sounds, in fact, exactly what you’d still witness there in the 21st century. Except today, there’s a new influential species that has invaded the islands: the human being.

    The Galapagos archipelago was once a virtually untouched oasis with no human inhabitants. In the 1920s, European and North American settlers began to arrive, as well as Ecuadorians who came to fish and farm. The human population has grown from roughly 3,000 in the 1960s to about 30,000 in 2012. In addition to residents, more than 160,000 tourists visit the Galapagos each year.

    WWF has worked in the Galapagos for more than 50 years , launching its work in the islands with the Charles Darwin Research Station, which you’ll visit on NHA’s tour.

    Here’s a list of some of WWF’s other current initiatives in the Galapagos:

    Waste management
    Increased human activity results in an increased demand on ecosystems. This is an especially big challenge in the Galapagos. Litter and other poorly managed waste easily becomes marine debris, resulting in, among other things, the death of animals that become entangled in pieces of string or plastic bags or that consume floating trash.

    WWF is working to create a successful waste management and recycling system on the inhabited islands. Currently the organization is helping to construct a new type of landfill on Santa Cruz that will offer environmentally safe disposal of solid waste. Another important component of WWF’s work is to create a culture of responsible consumption by educating local communities on the need to reduce waste and recycle.

    Enforcing laws
    In 1998, WWF helped establish the 50,000-square-mile Galapagos Marine Reserve. Since then, the Galapagos National Park has struggled to enforce the law that protects the reserve from harmful fishing activity. Park managers were faced with high operating costs and inadequate resources to patrol the large marine reserve.

    With key partners, WWF has helped create more efficient ways to monitor vessels in the marine reserve, using such technology as satellite, radio and radars. These systems help detect illegal fishing activities and minimize the risk of vessel accidents, which could lead to oil spills. The organization also supports training park wardens on how to use these technologies.

    Illegal fishing

    The Galapagos Marine Reserve’s diversity of marine life makes it attractive to illegal fishing interests. As a result, almost all of the Galapagos’ commercially important coastal species are being overfished. Overfishing destroys marine environments and hurts communities that depend on the fish. WWF collaborates with fishing communities to embrace sustainable practices that protect the fishing industry and the marine ecosystems.

    Sustainable tourism support
    Worldwide fame has turned the Galapagos Islands into one of the most popular tourist destinations on the planet. More tourists means a bigger demand for tourism and hospitality employees, which grows permanent or seasonal populations on some islands. It also leads to a higher demand for imported goods and fossil fuels.

    WWF wants to ensure that tours like yours become a tool for conservation and sustainable development. WWF helps the Galapagos design and implement business models that both support conservation and improve people’s livelihoods. This is done through collaboration with partners, governments and communities. WWF is intently working on reducing the ecological footprint caused by the industry and visitors.

  • WWF in Action: Polar Bears
    #WWFinaction_pb

    WWF in Action: Polar Bears

    WWF Works to Save Polar Bears in the Arctic

    Three researchers exit from a helicopter onto the sea ice of Arctic Canada and approach the lifeless polar bear. He’s not dead, just sedated from a dart gun the researchers shot from the air. They have an hour before he begins to wake up. They move quickly.

    First they measure length and—with the help of a fold-up tripod, a net and an engine hoist—weight. Next they collect biological samples: a vestigial tooth, which helps determine age, along with blood, serum, hair, fat and feces to identify any toxic contamination. Then the researchers paint a big number on the bear’s back with temporary, biodegradable fur dye, so that he can be identified from the air in the near-future, and they give him an ear tag or radio collar so that he can be identified in the years to come.

    Polar bears are not currently endangered—20 – 25,000 live in the wild—but the species’ future is far from certain. As a result of climate change, sea ice in the Arctic is melting earlier in the spring and forming later in the autumn, leaving the bears with less time on the ice to hunt for food to build up their fat reserves, and more time fasting on land.

    Studies suggest that two-thirds of the world’s polar bear population could be gone by 2050. And if current warming trends continue unabated, WWF scientists and other researchers believe that polar bears may disappear altogether within 100 years. WWF is intent on preventing this from happening.

    The organization and its partners are working to understand the impact of different threats. In addition to climate change, oil and gas development is a concern. By tracking polar bears, scientists can map a polar bear's range and examine how habitat use may alter over time in response to changes in the sea ice. Over time this information reveals changes and adaptations. WWF also provides funding for polar bear researchers to travel to Russia and the U.S. to share and exchange scientific information about polar bears with other researchers.

    As climate change forces polar bears to spend longer time onshore, they come in contact more often with Arctic communities. WWF is working to make sure these interactions do not end badly for humans or the bears.

    Scientists believe that a natural “safety net” of ice in the High Arctic of Canada and Greenland, ice covering 500,000 square miles, or twice the size of Texas, may persist longer than the ice anywhere else. WWF and its partners are working to preserve this region while simultaneously negotiating with governments, businesses and individuals to reduce greenhouse gas emissions that are causing climate change.

    Eric’s role as NHA’s Head Naturalist not only allows him to lead a wide range of adventures around the world, but also to play an essential role in improving existing trips and developing new ones. His illustrious career began in Alaska in 1989, where he worked as a field researcher on many of the state’s diverse animal species, including river otters, waterfowl, moose and reindeer. He also served as the Head Naturalist at Kantishna Roadhouse Lodge in Denali National Park. His involvement in many of our North American destinations, including Alaska, British Columbia, Churchill, Canyons and Yosemite, has been integral to their continued success and popularity, and his participation in more exotic adventures, like Bhutan and Papua New Guinea, will undoubtedly serve to enhance travelers’ experiences in those areas as well. When not guiding for Natural Habitat, he works as a freelance documentary photographer. Eric’s knowledge, compassion and deep love of the natural world have a long and lasting impact on those who travel with him.
