Echoes of the jungle

This photographic trip will be completely focused on bird photography in southern Vietnam, exploring some of the best forests and regions in the country for endemic species and highly sought after by nature photographers. The expedition will begin in Ho Chi Minh City, from where we will move to different strategic regions of southern and central Vietnam, including Cat Tien National Park, Da Lat, Di Linh and Da Nang.

Whispers of Vietnam

The main focus of the trip will be photography in hides and scenarios specially prepared for birds. We will spend a large part of the time working from carefully located photographic hiding places, allowing close encounters, clean backgrounds and excellent opportunities for behavior and portrait photography. During the expedition we will look for a wide variety of iconic and endemic species of Vietnam, including some of the most spectacular and difficult to photograph birds in Southeast Asia.
