Nature Somaliland is a non-profit organization based in Hargeisa, Somaliland.

Our endemic and near-endemic mammal species including the lovely Beira, Speke’s, Sommerringe’s  and the Pelzelni ssp of the Dorcas Gazelle family, Desert Warthog, Speke’s Pectinator, the elegant Gerenuk, Desert Fox, two species of Hyrax and three species of dikdik so on.

We use comfortable LandCruiser station-wagons for the longer trips and provide delicious  meals prepared by our own indefatigable Chef Zeynab  and her helper Ifrah every evening. Our drivers are experienced and top-notch in every way (See Our Team).

We can handle a maximum of eight clients at a time and our trips vary from single day excursions around the hills near Hargeisa.

Longer trips in Somaliland usually start at the Djibouti border and traverse the country all the way Daallo Forest Reserve and infrequently down to the old  Maydh port and to Rabshe Rock ten kays from the village, a spectacle of sea birds (gulls, Noddies, terns, boobies, tropic Birds and so on) make home.

The extended trips, depending on interest, can cover coastal stretches near the ancient port of Zeila and sample the unique sea birds on eleven precious islands (See Photo Gallery).

The main interest of our clients usually are endemic montane,  scrub bush, acacia woodland and vast plains east and south of Hargeisa, where most of our endemic and near-endemic lark species are found.

An extended trip is normally three-week long undertaking that covers near 2,000 kays from the Djibout border to Daallo Forest Reserve.

From experience over the past two-dozen years, we mix bush camping and hotel stays in our two-week and longer trips. And by now, in our little visited country, we know where the birds are and what time of the year to see them.

Even though Somaliland is safe land to visit, we take registered tourism police with us because of the far flung, rugged and frequently isolated bush landscapes we visit.

We prefer and encourage bookings as far ahead as a year because the more desirable stretches of the year can fill up early.

We do not scrimp on effort to be sure our clients are well taken care of  for we are Somali and the Somali hospitality is legend.

Come one; come all!
