MAXIMUM TIME IN NATURE

 

Our goal is to maximize the time spent in nature, allowing you to fully immerse yourself in the environment and appreciate its beauty. This often means long days filled with exploration, adventure, and unique experiences that provide a deeper connection to the natural world. While it can be physically demanding at times, these extended days offer the opportunity to observe wildlife, discover hidden landscapes, and truly engage with the surroundings in a meaningful way.

 

ITINERARY ROUTE

 

Our itinerary is subject to change due to factors beyond our control, such as adverse weather, road conditions, safety concerns or other circumstances. While we aim to follow the planned route and excursions, adjustments may be necessary to ensure the best experience. The itinerary is prepared months in advance, but unforeseen circumstances may arise. In such cases, the tour leader will determine suitable alternatives. No refunds will be issued due to changes in the itinerary.

 

USE OF DRONES / UAVs ON TRIPS

 

Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs), also known as drones, are not suitable for use on NEBLINA FOREST’s trips due to logistical constraints and in many cases, local and national laws or regulations. When visiting National Parks, Wildlife Refuges, Biosphere Reserves, etc. we operate under environmental regulations that ban the use of recreational drones. Do not bring a drone on a trip without contacting us first.
