Planning your trip

Dear friends!  

We are glad to offer you an exceptional Kamchatka’s wildlife viewing experience! In Kronotsky Federal Nature Biosphere Reserve and South Kamchatka Federal Sanctuary we develop educational ecological tourism. It is a special type of tourism based on sustainable and responsible nature observation. We provide infrastructure to make your trip safe and minimize the negative impact on the environment. You will have the opportunity to learn a lot of interesting and useful information about natural sites, animals, history, scientific researches and nature preservation. 

You can visit the Nature reserve in guided group programs. Here you can learn more about our guided programs. 

Kamchatka travel companies are in charge of organizing tours (forming travel groups, transportation to the territories, planning tour programs). Our organization offers only accommodation on the territories of Kronotsky Nature Reserve and South Kamchatka Sanctuary with all the facilities as well as ranger escort for your safety.
