    Every tour is tailored to local conditions, the season, recent wildlife activity. As a result, no two evenings are exactly the same. We adjust the route throughout the night to maximise wildlife encounters and photographic opportunities, rather than following a rigid itinerary.

    A typical evening may include:

    Dusk departure from your accommodation and transfer to the lower slopes of the Da Nang Peninsula, searching for species such as Collared Scops Owl, Large-tailed Nightjar and passage forest owls
    Continue to the limestone karst scrublands area, where we search for Indian Nightjar, Savanna Nightjar, Collared Scops Owl, and Eastern Barn Owl.
    If Indian Nightjar has not yet been located, we may finish the evening by exploring coastal scrub and beach habitats on the way back to your hotel.
    Throughout the tour, our guides continuously adapt the itinerary based on recent sightings and local conditions, ensuring the best possible chance of encountering the region’s nocturnal wildlife.
