Giant Ibis (here a pair on a nest), are one of the top targets in Cambodia, where the majority of the global population exists.

The birding in Cambodia is excellent and Cambodia offers the best (and sometimes only) chance to see most of the above birds anywhere in the world, so this destination should be firmly placed on the list of places to visit for the discerning world birder. It also definitely rates highly as one of the best places for birding in Asia. In addition to the above really special birds, there are loads of other birds to expect on the tour, with around 300 bird species possible on this Cambodia bird tour, many of these are birding highlights in their own right!

This tour will also be supporting local communities and wildlife conservation through responsible ecotourism.

The gorgeous Bar-bellied Pitta can be found while birding in Cambodia.
