All funds raised go to BirdLife South Africa’s important conservation work.

Scattered across a tropical sea, the Philippines is one of the world’s great birding frontiers. With an extraordinary level of endemism, it also carries the sobering distinction of hosting more bird species at risk of extinction than any other country.

About the birding experience:

Our journey through the Visayan archipelago explores the islands of Cebu, Bohol and Negros, each home to bird species found nowhere else.Their forests shelter some of the most sought-after birds in Asia, including the Azure-breasted Pitta, Yellow-breasted Fruit Dove, Philippine Trogon, Philippine Frogmouth, Black and Visayan shamas, Negros Scops Owl, Flame-templed Babbler, White-winged Cuckooshrike, Black-belted Flowerpecker and Visayan Broadbill – not to mention endangered species such as Visayan Hornbill, Yellow-faced Flameback and Negros Striped Babbler. Beyond birds, the Visayas deliver unforgettable wildlife encounters and landscapes. Expect chances to see endemic mammals such as the

Philippine tarsier and the Philippine colugo (flying lemur), set against the backdrop of Bohol’s Chocolate Hills – a spellbinding natural wonder. This is birding at its most rewarding: rare species, urgent conservation stories and island landscapes that linger long after the journey ends.
