Doi Inthanon National Park near Chiang Mai Thailand is by far the best birding area in the Kingdom. Our local guide lives in the Park, speaks English very well and knows the locations of various birds. This saves you valuable time thus seeing more species per day. There will also be time to enjoy the hill tribe villages and hiking on beautiful trails. Here is a list of the birds that I spotted during birding with our guide and clients at Doi Inthanon National Park.. It will give you a good idea of what you can see on a 1 to 3 day trip to the park.


About the birding tour

We provide transportation to, from and in the Park from Chiang Mai Thailand. A guide from Chiang Mai and driver will also go along with you. We suggest a minimum of two days one night in the park however 3 days 2 nights is recommended to cover the entire park. Because of the different altitudes from 100 to over 2565 meters, a wide variety of species can be seen. Accommodations are in a clean Bamboo Bungalow with private toilet and hot shower. Meals will also be provided to meet your taste. You will be given the colorful Birds of Thailand field guidebook along with a Doi Inthanon Birds Checklist.




    Includes:
  • Airport or train station transfers in Chiang Mai,
    hotel in Chiang Mai before and after the birding trip if needed.

  • Transportation by private air conditioned vehicle
    throughout the birdwatching trip.


  • 1 day or several nights in the park in comfortable
    bamboo bungalow with private hot water shower and western toilet.

    who knows all the birds by sight and sound and knows where that special bird you
    want to see resides in the park

  • All meals, breakfast, lunches, and dinners

Here is what one of our many clients had to say about birding with us.

Jan.31, 2011 The Spences and Carol and I all enjoyed our 3 day 2 night Doi Inthanon birding trip very much. Mr. Boon, our birding guide, was a pleasant companion and a superb guide and Mrs. Boon's meals were wonderful. I would gladly recommend this tour to any birders headed for Thailand. Sleeping inside the park near Boon's Karen Hill Tribe village was a big advantage as well as an essential part of the whole experience, and I would be sorry to have missed it. Thanks so much.
