Overview

Trip Overview

This Central & Western Myanmar Birding tour is a comprehensive endemic birding tour for those who have limited time to spare in the field and who want to explore the best endemic regions of the country during the short time. This birding tour will only explore the two major endemic regions of Bagan & Mt. Victoria and is aimed at locating all endemics including the most Myanmar’s seldom-encountered Hooded Treepie, and near endemics as well, along with Himalayan species that cannot be found anywhere in other Southeast Asia countries. We begin our birding tour with a private transfer from Yangon International Airport to our hotel in Yangon, where we spend two nights with the opportunity to marvel at cultural highlights of the city including the world’ largest gilded pagoda of Shwedagon. Departing Yangon, we travel north on a short domestic flight heading towards the ancient city of Bagan in the central dry zone of the country. With about 4000 ancient monuments including over 2000 well preserved ancient temples and pagodas dating back from 9th to 13th century, Bagan is the Southeast Asia’s richest archeological site as well as one of the most remarkable archeological sites in the world. We spend two nights in Bagan, exploring the open acacia and dry forest dotted with countless ancient temples and pagodas with the opportunity of finding these sought-after endemic species such as Burmese Bushlark, White-throated Babbler, Ayeyawady Bulbul, Burmese Collared-Dove, Jerdon’s Minivet and the seldom-encountered Hooded Treepie, along with a selection of other fantastic species. On our final afternoon in Bagan, we’ll take a boat trip down the mighty Irrawaddy River to a grassy island in the middle of the River in search of Southeast Asia’s riverine species such as River Lapwing, Yellow-eyed, Striated Babblers, desirable White-tailed Stonechat, and Yellow-breasted Bunting. Heading west from Bagan, we take a private long drive towards the Natmataung (Mt.Victoria) national park in the Chin Hills which are mountain ranges that consist of a southern extension of the eastern Himalayas and we spend four nights at a comfortable mountain resort set inside the national park with an excellent opportunity of seeking these highly sought-after endemics such as White-browed Nuthatch and Burmese Tit, along with very near-endemic species such as Chin Hills Wren-Babbler, Mount Victoria Babax, Spot-breasted Scimitar Babbler, Striped and Brown-capped Laughingthrush as well as a huge selection of other sought-after Himalayan species that cannot be found anywhere in other Southeast Asian countries. After three full days of exploring the Natmataung National Park, we make our way back down to dry and hot Bagan and spend the night before returning to Yangon. We fly back to Yangon for our final night. Next morning we spend the morning exploring the Hlawga Park in Yangon before, targeting the highly sought-after specie of Davison’s Bulbul and other lowland forest species. Afterwards we make our way directly to Yangon International airport for your international departure flight home.
