An icon of the natural world, Bald Eagles are the picture of power. We spotted this one soaring through Alaska’s breathtaking wilderness, pausing in a towering tree to look over its domain.

They have powerful, hooked beak, bright yellow eyes, and strong legs that they use to grab fish from the surface of the water.

In summer in Alaska, you may even see them raising their young. In fact, one of the hotels we stay in for our Glaciers and Grizzlies Adventure Tours in Alaska sometimes has a bald eagle nest right in the parking lot!

These majestic birds are a powerful reminder of why we venture off the beaten path—to connect with the natural world around us. These unforgettable moments turn trips into lifelong memories.

We've had a phenomenal start to our summer season in Alaska!

The guests on our first Glaciers and Grizzlies tour of the year were treated to views of orca, humpback whales, grizzly bears, bald eagles, sea otters and so much more!

Watching a sea otter gliding through the water is a classic Alaskan wildlife experience

On our tours, we regularly see them on our boat trips through the fjords, and even from the land as we explore the Alaskan coast

Watching sea otters swim, float, and play is truly magical! Have you ever seen them?

Tanzania: Up close and personal

One of the thrills of our tours is the chance to experience wildlife and nature in its untamed form.

We offer opportunities for responsible wildlife watching, where guests observe animals in their natural environment from a suitable distance without interrupting the animal's typical behaviors or disturbing their routines. Our expert local guides are always on-hand to make sure our wildlife viewing happens responsibly and safely for both animals and humans.

When your camouflage is almost perfect, but something gives you away...

Black oystercatchers use their long, red bills to pry shellfish and molluscs open, or sometimes as a jackhammer to crack the shells and get to the prey inside.

Found along Alaska’s coastline, their piping calls travel along the rocky shore, helping them to keep in touch with their partners or alert each other to danger. Strong pair bonds are essential for breeding success in this demanding habitat.

With their bright eyes, striking red bills and pink legs, black oystercatchers are always a treat to encounter

At the end of last year, we shared that Gondwana Ecotours had happily adopted two gorillas via the Dian Fossey Gorilla Fund Research Center

We adopted Nyirindekwe, 3 years old, and his mother Bukima, 30 years old, who are part of the Musilikale family. Today, we’re happy to share an update on these two members of the Gondwana family:

As Nyirindekwe grows, he is spending more time playing with the other youngsters in his family group. His peers are a close-knit and lively group! His mother, Bukima, seems to enjoy the rare moments of peace and quiet. Bukima is one of the group’s most respected females, and shares a close bond with her sister, Ikaze.

Silverback Musilikale is the leader of the Musilikale family group, which is now 27-strong. The group has welcomed four infants this year, keeping energy levels high! Mother and son, Bukima and Nyirindekwe, are thriving in their ever-growing family.

We’re proud to support the Dian Fossey Gorilla Fund and Research Center. Their ethos involves close collaboration with local governments, communities, and partners with the goal of conserving. protecting, and studying gorillas and their habitats. Our guests have an incredibly fun and educational experience when we visit the Center in Rwanda on our Gorilla Trekking tours.

Check out their page to learn more about the incredible work - you may even see some footage of Nyirindekwe and Bukima! If you’d like to support their work, or adopt a gorilla of your own, please visit their website

Hamerkop - the Lightening Bird ⚡

The traditional folklore of the Bhaca people says that a Hamerkop flapping its powerful wings creates thunder, and that the birds come down to earth to lay their eggs when the lightning strikes. Some cultures also believe seeing a Hamerkop brings good rains - a welcome idea for farmers.

The name Hamerkop translates from the Afrikaans meaning "hammer head". You can tell what inspired the name when you see those amazing head feathers!

They are wading birds, standing in the shallows near the edge of the water hunting for food such as frogs, tadpoles, fish, and aquatic invertebrates

This photo of this awesome bird was taken on our tour of Tanzania!
