Sicklebill Safaris is a small family run company based in North
Queensland, Australia. We have been operating in the Pacific region for
the past eight years. We have led tours to a number of destinations
throughout the region and have specialised in small private groups,
which maximise the chances of everyone on the tour seeing all the birds
well. We now offer scheduled tours to our most sought after
destinations and Guy Dutson has joined us as one of our regional
experts.
Sicklebill Safaris was originally founded with the aim of taking small
groups of visitors to New Guinea to experience the wonderful country
and its astonishingly varied culture, and to see as many of the 400
endemic species as possible. We support locally owned, minimum impact,
sustainable tourism ventures using local guides as much as possible and
help to provide an alternative income source to logging. We have long
promoted the participation of local people in all aspects of
eco-tourism. In Papua New Guinea we have worked closely with the
land-owners, encouraging the setting up of land-owner lodges in prime
birding sites and providing job training for local guides.
We currently offer tours to a variety of locations through out the
Pacific region, from Japan and Taiwan in the north to New Zealand in
the south. We visit many of the small Pacific Islands and countries of
the Pacific rim, as well as offering a wide range of tours throughout
Australia. Why not join us for the bird trip of a lifetime?
