    The guide was very knowledgeable about the area and cares deeply about the local environment in the new forest. I have never visited the area before and learnt a great deal about the ecology of the area, it's plants and wildlife. Really enjoyed the experience.

    We had a fantastic time, as a family of four, exploring the New Forest with Emily-Louise and Marcus. They were so knowledgeable about animals, insects, flora and fauna. Our young children became completely engrossed in finding fungus and bugs for nearly 2 hours! Thanks for getting us out into nature and enjoying the fresh air as a family!

    Really enjoyable couple of hours in glorious scenery with interesting and knowledgeable guide. We were lucky with the weather, and the fact that we were the only 2 people in the group, but I think Marcus would have made it great however many people would have turned up. It feels like you’re getting into the real New Forest, we saw hardly anyone one while we were out, and we learned a lot, thank you Marcus, a great tour, highly recommended.

    This was a fantastic walk into the New Forest with Marcus and Emily-Louise. We saw some wonderful wildlife and the scenery was amazing. The hosts have such a breadth and depth of knowledge that we learned lots. We heard birdsong, found a dung beetle and navigated some amazing terrain. Fully recommended for any family.

    We went on a full day guided wildlife watching tour with Marcus and Emily and it was such a wonderful experience. The New Forest is actually not far from us but we had never been there before and we wanted to enjoy this National Park with someone who knew the landscape and the wildlife intimately. Marcus has encyclopaedic knowledge about the history and nature of the New Forest and Emily helped us see fantastic Lichens and mushrooms that we would have easily overlooked otherwise. Without their knowledge and guidance we would have never seen or heard several of the fast moving and hard to find woodland birds. Our highlight in the morning was a rare but awesome sighting of the Lesser Spotted woodpecker! We walked around different habitats in the New Forest and also visited the coast to see some very special Spoonbills, Avocets, Spotted Redhshanks and many other wading birds. All in all a highly enjoyable day and highly recommended!
