Naturalist Journeys offers birding and wildlife tours through the United States. Our US birding and wildlife tours explore habitats across the country — from Washington's Olympic Peninsula to South Florida, from Arizona to New Jersey, and many states in between. Join a birding migration tour, a desert monsoon tour, or simply witness the wonder of our national parks on a Yellowstone wildlife tour or Olympic Peninsula wildlife tour.
Independent US Travel
If our small group US birding tours don't fit your schedule or your interests, Naturalist Journeys is happy to arrange an independent birding venture designed just for you.
