      1. A guide can make all the difference for sure. Not sure if I told you, but May 11 we're also going for a trip to Vietnam. Posted 4 months ago
        1. Oh brilliant, where are you heading and what are you seeking?? Posted 4 months ago
          1. Here's the list of locations:

            HCM City, Can Gio mangrove forest, Can Gio town, Dong Nai nature reserve, Cat Tien NP, Dilinh plateau forest, Dilinh town, Dilinh forest, Dalat City, Bidoup Nui Ba NP, Yokdon NP, Kontum city, Ngoc Linh nature reserve, Mang Den town, Danang city, Bach Ma NP, Phong Nha Ke Bang NP, Ninh Binh province, Van Long NR, Cuc Phuong NP, Cat Ba island, Ha Noi City

            It includes accommodation locations, so a bit verbose. We'll mostly be targeting birds but when the opportunity is there, anything that moves.

            1. Brilliant that looks very comprehensive. - You should see glorious Doucs, Langurs & Gibbons - fingers crossed for you & lovely birds - you should see Pitta(s), Trogon(s) & Germain's Peacock-pheasant at Cat Tien/Dong Nai & you have a fascinating itinerary, we got to about 1/3rd of them. Lovely country - the Karst Limestone is stunning - Van Long is a joy. Posted 4 months ago
              1. Lots to look forward to, thank you! Posted 4 months ago
