What our clients say about us

Adam Walleyn
RL Indonesia 2019

This was an outstanding trip among many great RJ trips. The guides, Adam and Lev were wondering in their ability to identify and everyone onto the irds and ammals.

Glen Valentine
EC, Indonesia - Sulawesi & Halmahera: Wallacean Endemics (Small Group) 2026

The Sulawesi tour was outstanding in every way. Glen is an outstanding conscientious guide leader looking out for the needs of each tour participant. He worked very hard to get all of us on the key birds of the tour. The local agent Roman, (sic), was excellent at keeping all the logistics set. And he's a very goid birder in his own right. The local guides were phenomenal, particularly at locating owls at night. The food was delicious, particularly Annie's crepes. And the hotels were all as advertised. No surprises good or bad there. Birding Indonesia is challenging because bird density is low. People like Glen make the birds that are there are seen. Excellent tour.

André Bernon
JJMD, Indonesia - Sulawesi & Halmahera: Wallacean Endemics 2026

I was very satisfied with the trip

David Hoddinott
EC, Indonesia - Banda Sea Cruise 2026

David and Forrest were exceptional leads on this tour. The crew of the ship were incredible, attentive to all our needs. And the birds? We saw birds not many peope in the world will see.

Stephan Lorenz
PG, West Papua 2018

Stephan Lorenz was excellent in all respects, he went out of his way to try and find a way for me to continue with the tour and then helped with my arrangements in getting home.
