How to Do Serious Nature and Wildlife Travel On a Budget

Изображение
 Nature and wildlife travel on a budget is usually quite difficult to do well. I’m not talking about staying at some “eco” hotel or piece of farmland where the owners have decided to throw a couple of “eco huts” up around a man-made lake. I’m talking about visiting significant expanses of well-preserved habitat located on privately owned pieces of land either inside or abutting national parks and biosphere reserves that provide access to thriving ecosystems.  Getting to these places requires, depending on where you live, an international flight, followed by land, boat and/or air travel once in-country. Did you really come all the way to the Ecuadorian Amazon or Namib Desert for the presence of an authentic wildlife and nature experience? Overhunted, overgrazed land dominated by a few kinds of plants and animals?; a palm oil plantation that doubles as an “eco” resort? Something so close to town you can hear car horns and motorbikes? But don’t despair. That bucket list trip is possible,
