Founded by husband and wife team Dan & Rachael Brown, they bring passion and expertise to every expedition. They created a company that endeavours to reconnect people with nature and address the current biodiversity and climate crisis through sustainable conservation-orientated tourism.

A key aspect of Wild Discovery is to enhance knowledge and inspire people through experiencing wildlife first hand. We hope it will lead to informed conservation actions and support green livelihoods.

 
Explore our website to find out how we can give you the best wildlife experiences through one of our ‘behind the scenes’ fully inclusive tours, identification workshops or let us create your own custom-made tour on land or sea

Capercaillie Need Our Help

Capercaillie are rapidly declining in Scotland and one of the biggest pressures they face today is simply disturbance. This is easy to avoid so Wild Discovery does not go searching for this bird on any of their tours.

If you are thinking of going looking for Capercaillie please don’t. If you visit woodland please stick to the paths and if you have a dog please make sure they stay on the lead. Let’s do our bit to give these magnificent and iconic birds a chance.
