Since its formation, Rockjumper Birding Tours has been supporting the conservation of the birds that bring us many delightful hours of sheer bird watching pleasure.
Learn MoreBoth the Rockjumper guide, Andre Bernon, and the local guide, Uthai Treesucon, were excellent. They were superior at identifying birds by sight and sound and at getting everyone to see them. Both were very patient. I appreciated that we birded from dawn to dusk most days. They took care of us very well including trips to the pharmacy when needed. Uthai ordered the meals in advance so that we did not waste a lot of time looking at menus and we had the opportunity to try many different dishes. Our meals were generally ready as soon as we arrived at the restaurants/lodges. The vans were very comfortable and the drivers were kind and helpful. Jiang and Lif prepared tea/coffee and snacks from the back of the van and set out lawn chairs for us midmorning every day. They also prepared a you-tube video of our trip that I really appreciated. The only improvement that I would suggest is to try to schedule visits to the major national parks, like Doi Inthanon for example, during the week and to avoid arriving there on weekends or holidays. The parks were crowded and the traffic was bad when we were there.
Balazs is an outstanding guide. We saw lots of birds well and learned about the history and culture of the countries we visited. Accommodations were great and food was good and plentiful. Great trip!
This tour turned out to be just what I was looking for in a "relaxed" tour: lots of interesting and challenging birds in a variety of habitats, great companions, a well-designed itinerary, and a pace that allowed for enough sleep :-). Wagner was an excellent guide; his knowledge of the birds of the area was encyclopedic, and his ability to hear, spot, and bring them in where we could get decent looks was really remarkable. He was also very flexible, attentive to our various needs, helpful, and great fun to be with. The group was three older women; I am walking with a cane, relying on carrying along a camp stool anytime we are standing around waiting for a bird to respond, and have trouble walking downhill. He quickly started avoiding those downward inclines. He also quickly realized that yes, we did indeed want to see those somewhat harder forest birds, it is just that these days we all just kind of hit a wall and stop having fun after about 8 hours of birding in a day. Wagner did a great job of arranging our days, generally with forest birding in the morning, and marsh or such later in the afternoon, and either a substantial mid-day break or an early finish. Food was varied and delicious. That's all I can think of; I was delighted with the tour, and I am pleased to see that Rockjumper is expanding its "relaxed" options. Thank you for being willing to offer this tour with just 3 of us!
I liked the high altitude birding. Glen, as always, was awesome. There were many early mornings and many men. Thanks Glen!!!
Erik was a terrific guide-knowledgeable and experienced combined with an engaging sense of humor. He seemed indefatigable We had a great time.
Wade was the best guide we ever had. He not only knew the birds and their songs, he knew the animals, reptiles, and plants. He was very personable and knew how to deal with people, especially at border crossings. He made sure everyone saw the birds and was great with the photographers making sure they got the best shots. We had a fantastic tour with Wade and the rest of our group.
