Bird Jahoo
Rare Birds & Wildlife in Cambodia’s Keo Seima Wildlife Sanctuary
Tour Highlights
Arrive at the Jahoo Camp before dawn and meet your expert guide over a warm cup of tea or coffee. As the forest awakens, venture into the heart of Keo Seima Wildlife Sanctuary, where rare and near-endemic bird species await.
Step onto the trail under the cloak of darkness, moving silently towards one of Jahoo’s strategically placed bird hides. Here, with patience and keen observation, you may witness the rare Germain’s Peacock-Pheasant, a prized sighting for birders worldwide. Keep your camera ready as other avian treasures emerge, including the Siamese Fireback and the stunning Bar-bellied Pitta.
Savor a field breakfast in the hide, surrounded by the melodies of the forest. Then, delve deeper into the sanctuary with your guide, whose indigenous knowledge unveils hidden birding hot spots. Spot the near endemic Pale-headed Woodpecker and Grey-faced Tit-Babbler, alongside a breathtaking array of Keo Seima’s avian wonders.
The forest comes alive with flashes of color and movement—watch for the striking Banded Kingfisher, the Dusky broadbill, and the enchanting Orange-breasted and Red-breasted Trogon, all thriving in this lush, biodiverse haven.
This immersive birding tour not only offers unparalleled opportunities for wildlife photography but also a deeper connection to the biodiversity of Cambodia’s pristine tropical forests.
