What an incredible adventure! I joined The Nature Bus today with my husband for a birding expedition on the Eastern Shore of Virginia, led by Suzanne Moss and tour guide James Abbott. The tour was beautifully organized from start to finish — we even stopped in charming Cape Charles for a lovely lunch. Even though I’m not a birding expert, I enjoyed every minute of the experience. Suzanne and James made it fun, informative, and welcoming for everyone, regardless of skill level. The group was so friendly and helpful, and the entire day was filled with laughter, learning, and beautiful sights. I highly recommend The Nature Bus for anyone looking to explore the natural beauty of Virginia in such a thoughtful and enjoyable way! My only regret is that I did not do a tour sooner. I am looking forward to more adventures on the Nature Bus. Susan and Tom Mayo Virginia Beach

Went on the eastern shore migratory bird trip today with Suzanne and James. The trip was great, we saw a lot of great birds at some cool locations. James is super knowledgeable and entertaining. I highly recommend the nature bus tours.

We got to go on a birding tour with James and he was quite knowledgeable about sooo many bird species! Both him and the owner, Suzanne, were very friendly, and you can tell that everyone was happy to be there. Overall a super enjoyable experience, and a great way to get away from the daily hullabaloo of life.
