This autumn tour focuses on three key species: Eurasian Lynx, Brown Bear, and Grey Wolf, in three distinct wilderness areas - West Estonia, Lahemaa National Park, and the Alutaguse area. We'll spend a night in a Brown Bear hide in the Alutaguse area. In autumn, bears actively forage to prepare for winter hibernation. We'll search for Eurasian Lynx primarily in the late afternoon, evening, and night using thermal scopes, covering significant ground. For Grey Wolves, we'll head to the stable western region where wolf packs have resided for years. During the day, we'll rest or engage in brief birdwatching trips. While our main focus is on the three predators, we'll have good opportunities to see Raccoon Dogs, Elk, Red Foxes, and Pine Martens.

Seals are marine mammals that leave no one indifferent with their human-like nature and interesting ways of life. Watching grey seals roaming on the rocks and swimming in the sea around the small islands and coves of Kolga Bay is a unique and memorable opportunity to get to know one of the most fascinating seascapes in Northern Estonia and to get a closer look at the life of the Baltic top predators - grey seals. For seal and wildlife watching, we use a purpose-built, enclosed-cabin boat with up to 6 seats. Its one-way mirror glass windows allow you to observe nature, while remaining invisible and disturbing as little as possible the shy wildlife. Quiet and precise manoeuvring and stationary positioning are ensured by an electric bow engine, which allows the seals to be observed more closely and with less disturbance than with conventional watercraft. The hull of the boat is constructed from highly durable recycled plastic and has a stable shape with low sides. For this reason, and with the possibility of a low seating position, our boat trips are particularly well suited for photo and video recordings of seals and seabirds. If the weather and visibility are suitable, we can monitor the seals; underwater activities with a small underwater drone. If necessary, we can also open both the windows and roof hatches to let the sun and the salty sea air refresh us, or observe the animals and birds from a distance through binoculars or enjoy the views of the seascapes.
