About
Oriole Birding Ltd is a family-owned UK birding tour operator based in Great Ryburgh, North Norfolk, established around 2004 by Ashley Saunders and Nick Acheson. The company runs over 70 destinations worldwide, anchored by an extensive UK programme — Norfolk, Cornwall and Devon, the Isles of Scilly, Shetland and Scotland — and a deep European portfolio covering Spain (Andalucía, Balearics, Canary Islands, Extremadura), Ireland, Cyprus, Estonia and Portugal.
Farther afield, Oriole's catalogue takes in Costa Rica, Ecuador, Panama, Brazil, Botswana, Zimbabwe, South Africa, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan and New Zealand. The company has built a reputation for finding rare and scarce birds and for owner-led trips with small group sizes. It is ATOL-protected, runs pelagic specialities with named experts, and supports rewilding projects as part of its environmental commitments.
