Wildlife Guiding

In addition to our guided wildlife walks, we also offer a wildlife guiding service where we can:

  • Join you in your vehicle as a wildlife guide
  • Join an existing minibus/coach tour
  • Hire a car which we would drive and guide (additional costs)
  • Work with some local tour guides to do a joint tour (additional costs)
  • Work with a local taxi company to do a wildlife tour (additional costs)

 

All arrangements are made by Wild Orkney Walks. We create an itinerary for you based on the wildlife that you are interested in trying to see. We recommend a minimum of 4 hours for a wildlife tour.

Prices begin from £42 per hour and are dependent on the nature of the enquiry. Here are some examples:

  • 4 hours £168
  • 5 hours £210
  • 6 hours £252
  • 7-8 hours £315 (maximum day rate, excluding islands)

 

Bespoke Wildlife Walks

In addition to our mixed group walks, we also offer Bespoke Wildlife walks which can include:

  • A more personal 1:1 experience
  • A different walk to one of our mixed group walks
  • A larger group size up to 9 people (for groups of 10+ please see our Group Bookings below)
  • Or maybe you want to see a particular species, ie Seals, Scottish Primrose or Hen harrier

 

Our Bespoke walks vary in price depending on the nature of the enquiry but will start from £42 per hour. We would recommend a minimum of 3 hours for a Bespoke walk.

If you would like more information on our Bespoke Wildlife Walks, then please do not hesitate to contact us.

 

Bespoke Island Trips

In addition to the island trips on offer through our Walks page, we can also offer bespoke island trips. Perhaps you have an island in mind, or maybe you want to try and see a particular species, whatever the reason, we can arrange this for you.

Previous bespoke island trips have included Hoy, Flotta and Shapinsay either as wildlife tours in a vehicle or as a bespoke walk/larger group.

We can visit any of the islands which are accessible by ferry or plane. The prices are dependent on the nature of the enquiry but will start from £315 plus ferry/plane fares.

Please get in touch with us for more information.

 

Group Bookings

We are delighted that we can now offer group bookings for some of our walks. This would apply where there are 10 or more in your party. (If your party has less than 10, please see our Bespoke Walks above).

The price will vary depending on the nature of the enquiry, ie number of people in the group, length of walk, wildlife, etc. But here are some examples of recent group walks:

  • 2 hour seabird walk – £25pp (min 10 people)
  • 3 hour wildlife walk – £35pp (min 10 people)
