Beaver Tours and wildlife experiences in beautiful Perthshire

Perthshire Wildlife – home of the Beaver Safari!

Welcome to Perthshire Wildlife, a small and friendly company which offers exclusive wildlife tours in beautiful Scottish locations, all led by expert local guides. Join us on a Beaver safari to discover the wonderful European beavers living wild on the River Tay catchment, or a guided Wildlife tour around Perthshire to spot the Scottish Big Five!

Central Perthshire is one of the best places in Scotland and the UK to see beavers in the wild and we run safaris by canoe, in conjunction with local canoeing experts, as well as on foot to get close to these amazing creatures. We have been running our beaver safaris since we started in 2013 and have seen beavers on over 95% of these tours over the past 10 years. We have won TripAdvisors’ Travellers’ Choice Award for the past 6 years.

We can also run private tours and guided walks for you – just contact us with the species or place you would like to see and we will do the rest!

A richt grand sighting Probably the highlight of our week in Scotland. Daniele was an excellent and informative guide for us on the half-day trip. Background came first at Banff (?) rewilding (where we saw the effects of beaver activity on the landscape). Then it was a drive to the R.Ericht where we saw all six of a lodge's occupants, 2 parents, 2 of last year's (who put on a play session for me) and 2 of this year's. It didn't matter that it had rained; we were all on our stomachs in the sandy mud getting the best view we could.
Thanks very much.

Brilliant wildlife safari We had such a brilliant time on our dusk safari. Our guide Anne-Marie was so informative and interesting and we got amazing views of three adults beavers on our trip. I would definitely recommend the safari to anyone wanting to see and learn more about beavers and their return to Scotland.

Great beaver experience Wonderful experience in a very peaceful setting. The beavers were a bit elusive initially but then put on a good show as the light faded. Guide was very knowledgable, friendly and relaxed - interesting to learn about the reintroduction process and different ways beavers came to be back in Scotland. Overall, would fully recommend.

Amazing beaver safari We had the most amazing time on our beaver safari. Joan was a fabulous guide and made sure that we had the opportunity to see the beavers. We sat for about an hour watching about 6 of them coming and going from the lodge. It was the highlight of our week of wildlife watching in Scotland. We even think we saw a bonus otter.

Beautiful Perthshire

Perthshire is right in the centre of Scotland and easily reached from Scotland’s cities. It is on the border of the Highlands and fertile Lowlands and so contains the wildlife found in both these areas, ensuring there is lots to see! Also known as Big Tree Country, there is a huge range of beautiful woodlands to visit. On a day out you could visit Europe’s oldest tree, see beautiful waterfalls, lochs, wildflower meadows and woodlands. We can help you find grouse, deer, ospreys, leaping salmon and beavers!
