Bach Ma Primate & Mammal Watching Tour – Trip Report (September 2025)

Last weekend we had a short custom primate and mammal tour for a wildlife photographer Alex from the UK. He was on a limited timeframe and very interested in our Bach Ma 3-Day Primate and Mammal Tour, so we adjusted this to an intense and focussed two-day and 1-night experience.

This tour was lead by Thanh Phan, one of lead bird and mammal guides based in Da Nang.
