Birdwatching in Khao Sok

Khao Sok is a birdwatcher’s paradise with 300+ species, including 9 hornbill types, Malayan Banded Pitta, and Kingfisher

We had an amazing day with Gai, he is a true professional :) He showed us plenty of marvelous birds (and other wildlife) whom he can recognize just by their singing. Also, he was very helpful (came to pick us at our hotel far from the village) and amazed us with plenty of interesting facts about the wildlife and the jungle. We took the whole day of Birdwatching and we had lunch on the river.We had also time to swim and enjoy the river in the afternoon. We'll see you again when we'll come back! (the legend says 😊) and thanks again for everything! 🙏🐒🦧🐿🐦🕊🦅🦉🦎🐊🕷🌸🌱🌴

It was a pleasure to have Gai as our host as we went birdwatching for the first time ever. Even with zero prior knowledge we had a wonderful time and gained lots of insights on all the birds we managed to spot. I hope to come back one day with and test the camera skills I learned.

Jane was such a wonderful guide! So knowledgeable and taught me about many birds we saw. Due to her route and knowledge, I saw so many new species of birds, what a highlight of my trip! If you are a birdwatcher don’t even think about it just book it! I went February- dry season.

Eddy knew all the places to take us to see a huge variety of birds. He had a vast amount of knowledge which he happily shared. We saw so many species such as common Kingfisher, serpent Eagle and banded Woodpecker just to name a few. Eddy was very considerate of my limitations. Would not hesitate to recommend the group.

Gai is an excellent birding guide with a very keen eye for spotting even the furthest bird. I saw around 30 species with his help - a very successful trip! He provided use of his binoculars and spotting scope to assist in seeing the finer detail. He also gave me some camera setting tips for optimising photography of the birds seen. Overall, a fantastic tour which I would gladly rebook if I return to Khao Sok again! Khop khun ka 🙏

We had a great private walk with Mr. Gai. He was very patient, knew where to find the birds and we saw some great stuff. Highly recommend!

I had a wonderful full-day tour with Gai. We saw more than 30 species of birds, a very lucky day. Gai is very thoughtful, friendly, and knowledgeable. Not only does Gai know where it is most likely to encounter this or that species of bird, he also answered many of my questions about life in Thailand and in the jungle. 
 The full-day tour allowed to visit two different places, the jungle in the morning and the open fields in the afternoon, two very different habitats with very different species. 
 I felt completely at ease with Gai and very well taken care of.

Gai was an excellent and knowledgeable guide! We saw many different species of birds. He was amazing at spotting them by sight or by their calls. He is well versed with the area and the places where the birds like to gather. Highly recommended!
