Wildlife guides
Discover the extraordinary animals that make every expedition unforgettable.
Some adventures are measured by the summits you reach. Others are measured by the wildlife you encounter along the way.
From the haunting calls of Madagascar's indri lemurs echoing through the rainforest to the awe-inspiring sight of a whale shark gliding silently beneath you in the Maldives, wildlife has the power to transform an expedition into an experience you'll never forget.
Our Wildlife Guides are written from first-hand experience exploring some of the world's most biodiverse environments. Whether you're hoping to photograph elusive species, learn about animal behaviour or simply understand what you might encounter on your journey, these guides will help you appreciate the incredible creatures that call these places home.
Explore our collection of species guides, wildlife identification tips, conservation stories and expert advice to help you get the most from every encounter in the wild.

Why We Created These Guides
Adventure should never feel intimidating.
After years of exploring the world's mountains, jungles, deserts and oceans, we've learnt what truly makes an expedition successful—and what catches people out.
These guides are written to give you honest, practical advice based on real experience, helping you prepare with confidence whether you're joining one of our expeditions or planning your own adventure.
