The People's Trust for Endangered Species is a charity which takes visitors to view wildlife along with local conservation projects. The majority of these are day trips within the UK, viewing anything from dormice to otters and badgers, but there are also five overseas options in 2008.

Recommendations

The British options might be a good starting point but overseas there's watching Imperial eagles in Bulgaria, searching for the wild dog in Namibia, including an introduction to tracking and conservative work, and exploring the national parks of Assam in northern India, spotting elephants, rhino and tigers.

Sample Price

UK outings cost around £12 (no accommodation included). A ten day Bulgaria trip is £985, the Namibia trip is £2,700 and the ‘Indian Adventure' £1,450 per person, all including flights.
