Simply because Kaeng Krachan is not only one of the best birding destinations in Thailand, but in whole mainland Southeast Asia.

We had a wonderful day in KKC NP. Thanks for our great guide Bank. He is the best guide I have ever met. Even though the tour is a "birdwatching tour," we observed not only many bird species but also mammals and reptiles. The tour was relaxing and full of fun. It was like going nature observing with a good friend. We are really glad to have such a good experience and will definitely recommend the tours to our friends who want to visit NPs in Thailand. Thank you for giving us such a great journey, hope we can visit your beautiful nature again soon.

It was our first birdwatching experience and enjoyed it very much. The guide was very knowledgeable and attentive to our needs and safety. He put a lot of effort in finding birds and explaining things to us. The food was good and the Park is fantastic and well cared (no rubbish, respect for wildlife etc.).
