Itinerary
Depending on the tide’s status, we will decide when to leave Saigon to make sure you get to Tan Thanh Beach at the best time for birding (when the low’s tide).
We may have a cup of coffee before seeking out our targets. Our target bird here is, of course, one of the rarest and critically endangered bird species on Earth, the Spoon-billed Sandpiper – which has wintered here regularly during November to April.
Moreover, we will also look for the rare (500-1,000 in its population) and threatened Nordmann's Greenshank, and the new taxon, "White-faced" Plover, as well as many other waders such as Broad-billed and Terek Sandpipers, Red-necked Stint and Great Knot.
Once we have found our target, we will enjoy fresh Vietnam’s seafood for lunch. And don’t worry if you don’t like seafood, we still have many other choices available for you.
We will drive you back to Saigon after your lunch.
