Peak Birdwatching Season 2025 – 2026 is HereNow. A full complement of winter visitors is usually present. Also, during the early part of the breeding season (March and April) many of the resident species are more inclined to be singing or calling and are therefore more easily located. The early wet season, during May to July, is also a very interesting time for the birdwatcher, especially since many species are still feeding fledged young.
In addition, some ground feeding species such as pittas and thrushes, which favor wetter conditions, now start to breed. There maybe short rain showers at this time, the weather is seldom bad enough to interfere too much with birdwatching as it rains mostly at night. make your reservations now as available dates are filling up fast.

My name is Grace Watchanapon and I live in Chiang Mai Thailand. I have been bird watching since I was a child but have been a birding guide for 9 years. I always enjoyed being outdoors in nature. The best part of being a birding guide is when a client sees a new bird species they have never seen before as they get very excited and thank me for showing them.

“I booked a day birding tour with All Thailand Experiences. They picked me up promptly on time and everything was just as agreed upon in the itinerary. My guide was excellent and I added a couple dozen birds to my life list. The guide was knowledgeable and great at spotting birds that I wouldn’t have otherwise seen. He also afforded plenty of time at each stop so I never felt rushed. Quite an enjoyable day”.
“Really enjoyed the company of Grace and Jackee during the 4 day trip to Doi Lang. Besides recording 103 species, we had a lot of fun and the food was great! Excellent views of some of the birds. Notables were spot breasted parrotbill, rufous gorgetted flycatcher, Himalayan cutia, Siberian bluetail and a swag of laughing thrushes. As Arnie once said. I’ll be back”!
“Jackie and Grace, our birding guides provided us with most enjoyable trip of a lifetime! Not only did they know their birds, but they found over 40 species for us, were so much fun to be with, were super hospitable, and helped us with ordering food and checking into our hotel! It was like exploring with friends! We loved every minute”!
