NaTourEst offers tours year round, several in more than one season.

Nature photographers have been cooming to catch the massive spring and autumn bird migrations in Estonia for years. But every season has something to offer:

Even before the predictable mid-May migration, early spring is a fine time for watching birthing seals and beavers in our waterways, and lynx, deer, elk, and wolves in the forests.

In addition to wildlife tours, summer, of course, is high season for wildflowers by the hundreds  – orchids and rare specimens, and their companion species – butterflies and dragonflies.

Along with autumn migrations, there are still opportunities to spot seals and forest dwellers - and our bogs are especially intriguing and mystical in November.

And finally, there’s nothing quite like tracking wolves and big carnivores in the winter snow.

Join us for a tour - expertly guided and tailored to your time, interests and activity.

The Brown Bear population in Estonia is 600 and rising. Their primary "home" is in Alutaguse, the large forested region that includes a national park and a bog in northeastern Estonia, close to the Russian border.

Wolves have always been a part of Estonian nature, and Estonians have a long tradition of sharing their lives with these lithe and beautiful creatures. In recent decades the Estonian wolf population has been thriving, with a population of about 200 adults. Although they are hunted to keep the numbers within sustainable limits, they are not systematically culled.

Come with us and discover the wolf, lynx and bear habitats in Alutaguse, the largest forested area in Estonia, situated in the northeast of the country, close to the Russian border. Estonia plays host to about 600 bears, 200 wolves, 800 lynx and 12 000 elks, and Alutaguse is the central location for them all.

The Elk (or Moose, as it is known by its Canadian counterpart) is the the biggest animal in the forests of northern Europe. About 12 000 live in Estonia. The weight of this majestic animal can reach 600 kg.

Join us for a genuine Estonian adventure and meet the king of the forest, the mighty moose.

Two seal species - Grey seal (Halichoerus grypus) and Ringed seal (Pusa hispida) live in the west Estonian archipelago. The grey seal population is about 4000 and rising. Grey seals like to "haul out" in Hari kurk (strait). These big (up to 300 kg) sea animals are very curious, and some will come near to the boat to see us.

The European Beaver, hunted to extinction in Estonia in the 19th century, was re-introduced in 1957and is enjoying a renaissance. It's current population size is estimated to be about 18 000 individuals. Although fairly common, the nocturnal and mostly shy Beaver can be hard to see. A key to success is knowing the places where Beavers are not hunted or fearful; we do know them, so our boats can approach these cautious animals. Our first concern, however, is the well being of the beavers (and all the wildlife on our tours).
