With Natural Encounters, your goals and dreams come together with Greg Homel’s decades of experience and expertise to bring you to the best birding and wildlife photography destinations worldwide.
Whether it’s a remote arctic breeding colony of thousands of shore birds or the elusive, critically rare Short-crested Coquette found in just one Mexican mountain range, ornithologist and naturalist Greg R. Homel can get you there. So get your camera lens or binos ready for adventure — and the birds!
And it’s about more than birds. Birds “guide” the tour, but you’ll experience the full spectrum of the world’s natural flora and fauna. From Jaguars in Brazil’s Pantanal to Mountain Gorillas in Equatorial Africa to Whale Sharks off Mexico’s Yucatan Peninsula, Natural Encounters offers the adventurous traveler exciting opportunities to witness ecosystems and species in still-wild landscapes and those increasingly endangered by the intrusion of human habitation and industry.
Small groups of typically no more than six participants ensure that everyone will share in each expedition discovery and have the full attention of Greg and an expert local guide. If photography is your passion, bring your gear and let Greg tutor you in the art and science of wildlife photography.
Adventure doesn’t have to mean roughing it. First-class accommodations and meals will help to maintain your energy for each vigorous day, no matter where in the world Natural Encounters guides you.
All of this is made possible by Greg’s personal, knowledgeable leadership and his hand-picked team. Greg has been showing birders the best the natural world has to offer for more than 35 years. Let him share his expertise and enthusiasm with you on your next vacation!
So… where in the world do you want to have a Natural Encounter?
Greg personally crafts each Natural Encounters itinerary based on his experience in, knowledge of, and research into wild places around the globe.
