Private Safaris
Most of Scotland’s more iconic wildlife live in the countryside and wilderness of Atholl Estates. Red deer, golden eagle, salmon, red squirrel, otter, black and red grouse being just a sample.
Most are quite elusive and factors such as season, habitat and time of day greatly influence your chance of catching a glimpse.
Your best chance to see these beautiful creatures is with an experienced guide which is why our private land rover tours are hosted by people who live on the estate and have a life time of experience working with the land and the wildlife.
Each tour is catered to your party’s individual interest and although we cannot guarantee sightings, our guides will work to make your chances as high as possible.
Our half day safari (2.5 hours) aims to take you out on the estate and within sight of at least one key species, passing through areas rich in natural beauty and historic significance.
The full day safari (5 hours) takes you deep into the wilder areas of the estate and hopes to bag you a McNab – sight of three key species and a stop off for picnic lunch just at the right place for an unforgettable eating experience of great food and awe inspiring view.
Alternatively you may simply want a leisurely tour of the estate with your guide relating stories and explanations of the places, people and activity that you pass by. At any time you can opt to stop and enjoy the view or simply take a walk off the track.
Either way, each journey will be unique and hopefully will live on in your memory as the high point of your stay on Atholl.
