Our Birdwatching expeditions in Asia offer an unparalleled opportunity to explore the rich diversity of avian life in some of the world's most captivating landscapes. From the dense rainforests of Borneo to the rugged mountains of the Himalayas, Asia boasts a staggering array of bird species, making it a haven for ornithologists and nature enthusiasts alike.
One of the most sought-after destinations for birdwatching in Asia is the Malaysian state of Sabah on the island of Borneo. Here, the dense rainforests are home to an astonishing variety of birdlife, including endemic species such as the Bornean Bristlehead and the Blue-headed Pitta. Guided expeditions will take you deep into the heart of these habitats, where you may be able to spot colourful trogons, elusive pittas and majestic hornbills in among the lush foliage.
For those seeking high-altitude adventure, the Himalayan region offers a different kind of birdwatching experience. From the foothills of Nepal to the remote valleys of Bhutan, birdwatchers can marvel at the sight of soaring eagles, graceful cranes and shy pheasants against the backdrop of snow-capped peaks and alpine meadows.
Whether exploring the mangrove forests of Thailand, the wetlands of Sri Lanka or the grasslands of Mongolia, Asia's birdwatching expeditions promise unforgettable encounters with some of the world's most extraordinary avian species.
