Natural History & Botanical
Royal Adventures offers a unique variety of natural history programming focusing on diverse landscapes, unusual wildlife, and several botanical and entomological wonders. Together, we’ll journey through rainforests and high deserts to gaze at snow-swept mountaintops, hidden waterfalls, and legendary rivers. We’ll encounter up close the Resplendent Quetzal, colonies of marine iguanas, three-toed sloths, koala bears, pink dolphins, cassowaries, guanacos, and the dazzling miniature frogs that lurk like hidden gems in the foliage of jungles. For those interested in botany, we have abundant experience designing botanical programs that explore exotic plant species worldwide. Our botanical tour options include visits to public and private gardens, homes, and varied landscapes to discover regional flora. For entomologists, we have itineraries that include the Monarch Butterflies in the highlands of Mexico or the magnificent Morpho Butterflies of Costa Rica, among others. Repeat clients include the California Academy of Sciences, Highlands Biological Station, Audubon groups, several zoos, and universities.

Naturalist Guides

Our guides know the habitat and terrain and place passengers in strategic areas in which they have the most likelihood of seeing wildlife and often rare species.

Our hand-crafted natural history tours venture into the locations your organization is doing research. We work with your organization as a partner to design an itinerary that highlights those areas that are important for your institution.

In addition, our special guests can provide insights both into the successes and challenges of a national park or protected habitat.
